05/30/2005 Archived Entry: "pseudo-birthday"

Yesterday we celebrated my pseudo-birthday; that is, my birthday is actually tomorrow but yesterday was the best day for my mom and sister to celebrate. So we all met at BJs Brewery for lunch. I had a really good cilantro pesto pizza and minestrone soup. We were in one huge corner booth so it was a bit difficult for me in one corner to talk to my mom in the other corner, but we managed. Daisy did fairly well and didn't screech too much. All in all I really enjoyed it. After lunch we all came back here and had cake that my mom made. Really good, though really rich and I did not finish my piece. Tabitha, however, ate all of hers and then finished mine! Usually that job is reserved for Chris, lol. Once it was just us again, Chris and I searched the garage for baby clothes in the 3-6 month size. Always nice to revisit memory lane with Tabitha's baby clothes. We made our wash pile and our donate pile and honestly, I think Daisy will be set when you add what was Tabitha's to what is Daisy's. Chris and Tabs then played together while I started playing the Sims. A long time ago when Sims first came out, I had the first one. Then they came out with the second one and I no longer needed the first disc, so I gave it to a friend. Every time I bought the newest version, I sent my friend the old one. That's fine, but since we got the new computer, I could no longer load Sims since I didn't have any of the previous discs. So I borrowed my sister's discs, including a couple I never had. So now I can play Vacation and Unleashed as well. Daisy enjoyed watching the opening, but then she was out so I gave her to Chris and Tabitha came with me and loved watching me play. She always did enjoy the Sims.

Chris and Tabs went out later and picked us up dinner from a burger place. Daisy took a late nap so she stayed up later than usual and so I let Tabitha stay up later too just for the heck of it. We finally had them both down by 9:30pm. Chris then played around with his video camera software and learned how to do various things. I watched a show on toys and then Hey! Spring of Trivia on Spike which is one of those train wreck shows that you can't look away from. But it's educational, I learned that a cherry blossom tree has an average of 593,364 petals and if you shoot a .45 at a Japanese sword, the sword will win and split the bullet in half. This is useful information, lol.

And today is Memorial Day, but we don't do bar-b-ques and all that. We're actually going out to pick up a computer piece and then working at home.
