I've already described the FAIL of previous birthdays here and let me just say, the one before them, the one that started the downward spiral of horrible birthdays cannot be explained in one sentence but I will do my best: my ex-boyfriend's girlfriend tried to kill him in front of me. My close friends at work pretty much knew about my birthday luck and they are amazing. They made this year amazing.
We went to Knott's Soak City. 19 people showed up. 19 fucking people and a few of them even had to work that evening. Jnll bought us a private cabana and we did shots all day long. I rode every slide drunk and I can still hear Shwn yelling, "SHE'S A LADY, IT'S HER BIRTHDAY, SHE'S A LAAAADY!" We were cut off. We almost got kicked out. We were surrounded by security. It was just awesome.
My work friends are awesome.
My other friends, another story. They bolted for the rides the moment we got there, without me. I never went on one with Dmnq and Mghn and only one with Jby and Lw. D&M left just a few hours later without saying goodbye.
But it didn't matter. My work friends noticed and told me they should fuck off, not to care about them. I was high and drunk and I was having so much fun. I didn't even burn. Now that's amazing.
Nine of us went to dinner, the mariachi band swarmed our table and sang me songs for my birthday. I passed out on the way home.
Today I added #3 to the "Major Stupid Things Mghn Says" list. Major meaning she says unthoughtful, ridiculous things every day, but sometimes there are a few gems hiding in the mix. After my shower every morning (afternoon) I walk into the living room and Mghn will have a netflix watch instantly movie on (we don't have cable so we hook Dmnq's macbook to the HD TV and I'm sure Mghn would shrivel up and die without it). This morning (afternoon) it was A Clockwork Orange and the moment she sees me she says, "I just wanted to remember why it's so stupid." Uh, WHAT? I didn't know what to say to that and Mghn is someone that, at times, it makes no sense to argue with her, the rest of us realized this trait right away and pretty much spend our time with her waiting for a moment alone so we can laugh till we cry about most of the things that come out of her mouth. Back to the point. I really loved A Clockwork Orange during high school and, I'm sure, I didn't understand it too well and right now I can't really tell you I even like it anymore but even I know you can't call it stupid. Pet peeve right there, when someone can't understand something, it's stupid. Don't do it. It's not fair. If you can't get the point, the reason, the moral, it's no where near stupid. Mghn didn't know the movie was set in the future. She laughed and giggled through the conditioning scene.
I am craving coleslaw.
AND JUST BECAUSE IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY, MATTHEW GOODE GIF SPAM.
