Well, today was a most glorious day. It was, until the stroke of midnight anyway, June 13th… which means America’s favorite twins are now 18. In honor of such a wondermous event, me and the boys decided to throw the girls an intimate birthday hullabaloo.
Okay, so it wasn’t much of a hullabaloo, but it was celebrated by pizza and a chocolate cake topped with funfetti icing. [see below]
As you can see, we were all giddy with anticipation for eating the moist cake. After the vittles were all taken care of, we proceeded to sit down and have it out with our old buddy Contra for NES.
We beat ‘er in under an hour. Nice.
One of the best parts of the evening was havin’ my Knoxville buddy Craig along for the ride. I was pleasantly surprised when he called be round 7 to let me know that he was in Nashville for the night before his flight to Kansas tomorrow. (I don’t know what he’s doing there, but I sure hope it’s exciting as all get out.) He wasn’t the only one in town today, though. After two stale weeks of no activity, the last two days have seemed a blur.
Last night was my first night catering, and even my neck muscles are still sore… dang. I’m sure people who saw me walking today were certain of my inebriation. After 7 straight hours of speed walking at the catering gig, I came home to chill with Stuffy and his bro. They needed a place to stay on their way back from the beach, and we were glad to have them. It was an awesome time. They were getting ready to leave this afternoon when my bro, sis-in-law, and li’l sis arrived to make a pit stop in Nashville before continuing onto Memphis. It’s been a whirlwind.
I think I might go to Memphis tomorrow to help them move into their new home. I know these last two weeks I’ve been complaining about having nothing to do, and I’m sure I won’t have a solid job by Tuesday (the catering gigs are only on-call stuff), so I might as well forfeit a few more days to help them out. It’ll be good to just chill with them anyway. Then I’ll come back to the ‘partment to hit the daily grind again… Mmmm, more job hunting.
