Surprise Party

Stacy pulled a good surprise party for my 25th birthday party last Friday. I asked her early in the week if she felt like going out and it seemed like she wasn't up for it since it was Friday and she's always tired on Fridays.

So I thought we could celebrate my bday on Saturday instead and meet up with everyone then. Stacy and I went out to Montgomery Inn Boathouse after work on Friday. Yummmmmmm...I'm not a big ribs person so I got the filet mignon. After eating, I was thinking we could pick up some liquor and wine from Party Source. Stacy agreed only b/c we finished dinner at 8:00 and were not meeting up with everyone for the surprise until 8:30 so the Party Source would give her time to stall.

We left Party Source and Stacy told me that Emily and her friends were up at Gameworks and wondered if we wanted to join them. I was thinking in my head "No" but being nice and all I said "Yes." Well, I thought "It wouldn't be too bad if some of my buddies came out." So I call Jesse...no answer. Call Jesse again....and it disconnects (which I found out later he answered the phone on accident) but didn't notice anything. Call Marvin.....no answer. At this point I'm pissed, it's my birthday and I'm going out with all women. That doesn't actually sound that bad when I put it like that but anyways. I get into Gameworks and there drinking is Jesse, Marvin, Elizabeth, Kevin Bivens, Brad Deaton and Greg. By the time the night ended, we actually had a decent sized crew up there. It was definitely an awesome surprise and alot of drinking involved.

Marvin and Jesse got me a t-shirt of my boy Jeff Gordon......nice gift. I was actually looking for one of them. I almost forgot. People accumlated tickets for me over the entire night and I was able to buy something at the end. Jesse had been trying to get a Mario stuffed animal from one of those game machines all night and had spent a decent chunk of change. I felt bad so I bought a Luigi as the gift. I give that punk the gift and he's like "This isn't Mario!" and sits it down on the table......LOL! Great stuff.
