yay it's friday!!! soooo excited. except the weekend seems to go by so quickly. boo.. soon enough monday will be here and i will be sad. so anyways..

happy birthday alice!
yesterday.. sorry i didn't post earlier!

alice is the big 2-1, so i'm sure she got real toasty last night. haahha. just kidding.. she saved that until this weekend :P now that she's mastered the art of winning amateur lap dance contests, she can move on to other talents.

real quickly before i go home.. (whoo hoo!) wednesday i went on this huge crazy buying spree and bought all the matt nathanson cd's i didn't already have. one of his albums on his website, and then i wanted the plus cd that came free with his new album, but you can only get those at cims stores. so i dragged beth along to footprints in long beach, which is pretty similar to lou's records in encinitas. lots of indie stuff, very fun. beth groaned all the way there, but really enjoyed it once she was inside. she's crazy because she thinks that i drag her along to all these places she's never heard of just so that i'll have company, but really i make her go because i think she'll enjoy it too. sometimes i'm wrong, but i was right on wednesday night. beth really enjoyed the 2nd street scene.. but too bad we got there too late for us to really shop around. we drove back to torrance to try and make it to joanne's so i could get some fabric for my new project.. so we just had dinner instead at the cho dang tofu place. my mom was jealous that i went without her. :P

thursday i opted to stay home and just watched tv, cooked, and chatted on the phone. i was going to bake a cake for a co-worker's bday.. but i realized that i didn't have cake mix, and then tried to find the recipes for making cake from scratch, but realized that i didn't have all the necessary ingredients, so oh well. no cake. so instead this morning i trekked over to the non-strike ralphs (where they are hiring county clerks.. hmm.. maybe i should apply :P) and bought balloons from a lame-o who was nice but couldn't curl ribbon or arrange balloons for the life of him. and bought a cake and some writing gel. today everyone went to claim jumper's for lunch. it was cool.. (even though i had gone on monday) except i didn't like the way they split up the bill. they took the final bill and just split it amongst the amount of people there (minus birthday boy). it just sucks because i ended up paying way more than i should have and some people obviously paid less. my meal was $10 and i ended spending $20.. boo. i mean.. with the 17% large group gratuity and paying for part of the birthday meal it was only a few dollars.. but still.. oh well.. it was a good time, and then we had cake afterwards.

tonight time for playing. yay! i love weekends.
