My Birthday Recap
So this weekend I turned the big 29...that's right I am one year (now a few days short of one year) from being the big 3-0! So by this time next year I am going to be at my peak fitness in every way. Anyway this post is about this year.
So I took Friday off of work to go to Toronto with e:libertand, @paul and @terry. I slept in, woke up and read the paper and dawdled around the house. Then Dave got home from work and I opened my presents from him. My real present was the trip but I did get candies and a magazine and a great card and I loved it. Then we went to leave for Toronto suprisingly close to our 12:30 planned leaving time except then we decided we should eat first.
We went to Ashkar juice bar on elmwood and I had a tuna wrap which was pretty delicious and it came with a salad with beans it and that was pretty good too. Except theyput onion in it even though I said no onion but it was actually good but I just wasn't in an oniony mood. So after lunch we had to go back to my apartment because we forgot some things. And then we were finally off. Crossing the brdige on the way there was pretty easy breezy lemon squeezy. I get so nervous about bridge crossings and all the questions but it really wasn't bad. I always get nervous and have in the past said things like:
-I don't know if the other people in my car carry weapons
-yeah I have drugs..but they're just antibiotics, do those count and other ridiculous things
Anywho so then we were on our way to Toronto , traffic wasn't too bad, in the direction leaving Toronto it was super backed up I swear for like the whole ride traffic in the opposite direction was terrible. I was getting nervouse there was a zombie attack or something in Toronto and everyone was fleeing just as we were entering. Turns out that was not the case.
So we get to our hotel and check in and it was quite nice. We then left to go to a game store so Terry could get some games. There were about 100 cats in the tiny game store so me , paul and dave waited outside. Of course I got drawn into the souvenir shop next door but actuallyonly Paul ended up buying anything. He got a racoon tail which he proceded to wear for the rest of the trip.
We then did some shopping at the Eaton Cetner but I didn't buy anything so then we headed to dinner at the Asian Bowl. It was super delicioso. And i had some mai tais which I had never had and are really delicious and refreshing drinks. This was the first place I noticed the bahtrooms were down a flight of stairs in the basement. Pretty much everywhere we went the bathrooms were down a flight of stairs in the basement. Not sure why.
Our waitress was super nice and awesome and friendly but she did not want us to leave for some reason. Like seriously we could not get the bill. It took forever.
After dinner we decided to go to Remingtons which is a strip club. Um it was sad. I don't know if it was just this one because I have never been to one before but really it just seems sad. The customers seem sad , the dancers seem sad, it all seems sad. Maybe if it was more party atmosphere but it definitely wasn't while we were there and I could not wait to leave!
We went back to the hotel and freshened up and then we headed out for the night and that will be part 2 because I am tired of typing right now.

my ride
Maureen's House
About twice a year my friend Maureen comes home to visit and I usually go over at least one of those days to her mom's house. There is just something so comforting about going there. I really cherish those times. There is something about her house that just really feels so comforting. I love seeing her mom and talking to her mom and just I don't know everything about it. It just feels so nice and I love it.
party turn
the bartender just pioured like half a vordtle of captn in mine and rachelles drinks. let the party begin !
Magic Mike
@jill, @mk and I went to see Magic Mike tonight. It really had some horrible horrible acting, especially his love interest who had the most annoying life and just was annoying. Not that anyone was a great actor in it but it still was entertaining and funny even when it didn't mean to be necessarily.
ANywho, it made me think I really need to get in shape. Not that I will ever be in shape like Chaning Tatum or Matt McConoughey or any of them but still I could try to be a little in shape. Speaking of which though, to be in the shape theya re in do you pretty much have to work out all day every day. There bodies were insane. Like how is it even possible to look like that?

things I need
so I'm cleaning out the cubby hole in my dresser and there is a notebook I wrote notes and random stuff in and rough copies of letters I was going to send my friends.
anywho, there is a list from I'm guessing 2005 though I don't have anything dated but the stuff around it seems from then and it goes
Things I need :
job
life
either signatures or syringes I can't read the writing in this line and am not sure why I would need either
dates
liquor
I wrote it like a list like I just had to run to wegmans and pick up a life and dates. I was so weird .

Corporate Challenge
Well the corporate challenge is tonight and I never ended up training even a little bit besides taking some walks but never even a little running so I guess it may just be walking for us. Maybe just walking right to the beer and food tents! Me and Rachelle decided we are starting tomorrow to train for next year and do it for reals this time! Well maybe not tomorrow but soon?
