Started off the week doing my own nails and curing my hair. I’ve realized my SUPER long hair looks great curled.
Tuesday, I met up with Mallory & Beth and Pearl and Vine for my early birthday celebration. We pretty much ordered the entire menu. Everything tasted pretty great. It was a bit on the louder side so it was hard to hear but other than that all was well. We enjoyed some drinks and had a great time talking about nothing. There were no screaming kids around as well so I hope the mamas had a great relaxing night.
Side note. The pink martini was actually clear. Mallory ordered it because we though a blue martini would be blue. Instead it was clear and named blue martini because it uses an olive stuffed with blue cheese.
Thursday, for my birthday, I finally used the Massage Heights gift cards my siblings and significant others got me back in 2019. It had enough for a one and a half hour massage and one hour facial. I had a grand time and wished I had a nice robe like theirs. There was a small part of me that wanted to steal it!
I went and got my free Starbucks drink and some tacos from Los Balitos before heading home. Patricia got me Tiff Treats delivery so I gobbled some up. We ordered from Ginger Thai for dinner and enjoyed some Ice cream sandwiches as cake. Then I finished my Pokemon puzzle.
Friday, I had a hair cut and decided on partial balayage. I’m still unknown on how I feel about the colour. It’s more red than I hoped and also, feel like he did a full than a partial. I’ve washed it out once and noticed some is turning more red than the purple we had hoped for. Yikes. I don’t hate it but … it’s more than I had asked for.
I was a little nervous meeting up with Frankenstein since I hadn’t told him I was getting all that craziness but he was supportive and said he liked it. Not sure if it’s true, but being supportive is all that matters.
We met up at the Health and Medical museum because I really wanted to see the Body Worlds and The Cycle of Life exhibit. Sadly, it wasn’t it but we did have a lot of fun in there. We then walked around the gardens and into the Science Museum to see what I had wanted to see. It was very eye opening and I’m thankful for those that donated themselves for science. It was also nice to listen to Frankenstein answer my questions.
We also walked around the Gem exhibits and we pretty much made fun of stuff and ooooed and aaaahed over others.
We then stood outside my car with our indecisive selves trying to find a place to eat. We ended up at Lucille’s where we got old fashions, Brussel Sprouts, Oxtails, and Fried Chicken. Everything was delicious and I made a mess cleaning the bones. Thankful that Frankenstein was willing to lose sleep to spend time with me before I was gone for a week.
Saturday morning, I started my drive, Starbucks in hand, to San Antonio. When I got there, I was able to meet Emily and Cookie. Then a pedicure and Summer Moon for coffee. We went to HEB to grab groceries before heading back to the house.
Amy was so sweet in giving me a birthday present. I was able to use my Happy Birthday wine glass from her and I felt FANCY.
I made guacamole with instructions from Jakob. The rest was made by Patricia. Jakob also got us cookies from Crumbl.
It was a great night catching up with everyone. We had at least 5 different conversations going at the same time. Many interruptions, questions, interrogations. It was a lot and not enough at the same time. We did photoshoots and Andy tried to get everyone with that ugly filter. We sang, we joked, we threw down shade.
This morning, Andy, Amy, and Ana came over for brunch. We ate and talked mostly about boys and dating life. They left and I relaxed and watched “Those Who Wish Me Dead” with Patricia. She was nice enough to go to Smashin Crab with me before we headed to HEB to buy groceries for tomorrow’s dinner.
It’s been a whirlwind of a Birthday week and I feel so thankful for everyone.
