MK's Birthday

Purple Palace, originally uploaded by andebos.

It was quite the birthday soiree last night. As far as I know there were between five and eight people with birthdays happening, crazy huh? Various groups went to various places throughout the evening and then everyone merged at Jillian's later on...It was a fun night, dinner at Vinny T's with the group I was with, and then Jillian's later on where several of us sat around and asked questions for us to answer. More of a coffee shop conversation than a bar conversation but, hey, that works too. Questions ranged from "best roommate and why?" to "what makes you most content?" It was a fun game. I have to tell this story though because it rather frustrates me. We were going to go out with a fellow, I'd never met him, who was in from out of town. I hear he recently got engaged and had put together quite the engagement event. On his birthday his new fiance had planned nothing. Now, that would certainly make me upset...at least she could plan a nice night for the two of us. That's not the part that frustrates me...so here is that part. Upon hearing about the fiance planning nothing his friend put together a bunch of people. He didn't like this idea because the group wasn't his friends, and he got very upset at his buddy for planning something so off focused of himself. Without names I don't know if that's very clear but bottom line is this, if you're upset with someone, you need to work hard not to take it out on someone else in their place. Okay, soap box is done - It was a great evening and I'm tired today so I'm gonna go hop on wrapping up my grades and lesson plans! Another manic sunday...or something like that.
