One Year Older... Maybe wiser too?



Well, one cool thing about Patrick and me, is that we have the pleasure of sharing a birthday!
Patrick is exactly two years older than I.

This has posed a little bit of a problem. See, I like my birthdays. I like them a lot.

For about a whole month before, in between, and after, life is about ME. Its not a birthday for me...its a BirthMONTH!

But now I have to share my Birthday... with my husband.... I am not quite sure how I feel about it. So we decided to switch off on who the "birthday boy/girl" is. Our fist birthday together it was MY birthday, so Patrick planned it all out and I didn't have to do anything. So not much different from a normal birthday. BUT this year it was his turn. It killed my birthday buzz, now I couldn't just sit back and enjoy my birthday... I had to plan HIS! You can see my predicament. Well, thankfully we are broke so it really didn't make a difference if it was "my" birthday or his.

I had to work on my birthday, kind of scary, It was my first day at a branch... time to put all my training into work. But it was good, and I actually did pretty good at my job!
Then we went home got ready for the evening and went to Red Lobster. It was fun I got some yummy halibut, and Pat got a Sampler dish... the only thing was he got Crab. Like the whole crab on your plate. he went to town on that poor little crab and i about got sick. See I am not really a fish person. I don't like to be able to see what it was that I am eating. So Patrick is just LOVING his time. taking the crab lags and crushing them and pulling out the meat. Once he was done with his first leg he looked up to see my horrified face, and laughed, and of course finished his meal. I lost my appetite a little bit. He was having WAY too much fun ripping that crab apart.

Later that week we went to go see Avatar. OH MY... wow I absolutely LOVED it. We went to go see it in 2-D because Patrick gets bad motion sick. So we didn't want to get sick with the 3-D. But after seeing it we are DEFINITELY going to see it again, but this time in 3-D. It makes me wish I could live in the rain forest!

So I would have to say that OUR birthday was a success. I have my new job as a teller at the Credit Union.I love learning about everything there. It's nice to have a job that you actually enjoy!
Well, I have the WONDERFUL opportunity to be one of those lucky people living in here that has church at 8:30 in the morning so it's bed time!
