Say it's my birthday..dunuhnuhnuh..

Well, it is. And Kyle is in the process of making me a delicious homemade from scratch german chocolate cake. Yowza!

This weekend has been pretty packed. Friday I ran all kinds of errands and then we went to the Purim celebration. That was fun, made a lot of noise with groggers, ate pizza, there were children running around screaming every where and in costume, and the rabbi was dressed up as a giant Sponge Bob, it a surreal kind of experience.

After the service, we went to our friend's Susan's to cut some gourds open. We are using dried gourds to make mask for the play I'm in. Let me tell ya, it's a pain in the arse to cut open a dried groud. We were hacksawing it when a vicious storm came roaring in with hail. So the gourd cutting was delayed until Sat.

So instead of finishing that project we sat around drinking and talking. I learned how to knit too. The basic stitch at least, I still need to practice.

Sat morning I went bellydancing, which is fun yet difficult. I just don't know how they keep the hips moving and then move other things all at the same. Anyways, I'm hoping to go back this coming up Sat. I spent the rest of Sat. inhaling dead gourd guts and painting my mask. Stupid gourd made my allergies attack.

At night we saw Der Golem, an old german silent film, at the Alamodraft house with Ash. There was live music. We had to take Ash home early due to my allergies. Alas, we did get Ash a junior bacon cheeseburger to complete the night.

Today, I have rehearsal.

Book #2 completed for 2005: Bongwater. A book set in Portland, Oregon, kind of depressing subject matter, but the kind of depressing I wanted to keep reading.

Time to check out ebay.

Happy Birthday!!!
