two two's

Well- it was my birthday on Sunday and I had a good time celebrating (birthday's are a weird thing...explaining that thought is worth a post itself, so no explanation today).

Friday, I went to a wedding social with a couple of friends. Actually, it was called a "Show"-cial: rather than your typical dancing social, the engaged couple (who I didn't know) had a few bands/solo artists put on a show at the West End Cultural Centre. Neat idea! I have to say, my favourite band was the old aunts and uncles who looked like they'd be hick, but ended up playing some Low German and French songs that sounded quite European to be honest! Nice! (At one point I told the people around me that it would be RIDICULOUSLY awesome if they pulled out an accordion......and yes, yes they did!)

Saturday- I shopped around with my cousin and then eventually went out for dinner to Bistro 7 1/4 with my family! OH my goodness. I recommend this place to EVERYone with an appetite for some amazing new flavoured dishes. I had the asparagus strudel on arugula with a complimentary dessert of pure chocolate truffle in a tiny little teacup (that tiny teacup was quite enough- SO sweet). Driving to cheaps after that (The Ghost Writer), came to the Jubilee underpass on Pembina and it was literally a lake from the rain! There was a car that got stalled up in it, so I knew that the chances of my little beater car making it through the waves was "ish".

She made it!

Although now my engine light keeps going on....hm...
Sunday (my actual birthday) was quite relaxing. Slept in, watched a movie online (Ondine...I really like watching movies), & just basically relaxed. Went out for supper to Joey's with a few friends then headed to Kingshead after that for some more hanging out with more friends!

Thanks to you who came (and for the bday wishes from everyone who didn't)!

Until next time (my Michael Jordan birthday)....

Cheers!
