Birthday Breakdown:

6:00 am - - Pop out of bed, literally, I had an unusual cheer in my step.
6:01 am - - Breakfast. Consisted of a Kiwi, Hardboiled Egg, and a Salsa dish of GrapeNuts.

6:10 am - 7:40 am - - Shower, shave, deodorized, brush teeth, gel hair, dress, prep lunch, gather cold weather gear, lounge, Blog, and read emails from my adoring fans: mother, Jonathan, Johnny and Gen all wishing me a happy 23rd. Jerome sang happy birthday while I was sitting in the kitchen with him. He danced; a little creepy.

7:55 am - - Jerome delivers me to work an hour early on account of the cold weather and my not wanting to pedal through icy winds and low temps.

8:06 am - - Clock into work. Early as mentioned. I was going to draw, but Sammy wanted to leave and take a nap.
4:04 pm - - Clock out of work. Nothing supremely spectacular occured. Begin walk home.

4:35 pm - - Arrive a la maison. The last block I recieved a ride from one of the guys who live below me. A nice chap; don't know his name though.

4:45 pm - 5:45 pm - - Workout, check email, and wait for Jerome's homecoming.

5:45 pm - 6:15 pm - - Hastily drive to JC Penny to purchase my attire for the evening. I wanted new clothes for dinner and the only available time was this 30 minute chunk. It worked though. I got this awesome green shirt and a pair of Levi's Capenter pants, dark ones. I was hot.

6:35 pm - - After quickly dressing we arrive at Gella's. At last.

6:35 pm - 9:30ish pm - - An "intimate" dinner with 16 of my closest friends. It was fantastic. The night included a slice of the porter (my favorite beer), tuna salad, a free oatmeal stout brownie, cake, more cake, a slightly disgusting dish of creamed spinach, presents including 25$ to iTunes and coffee, and no happy birthday song. It seemed to have gotten lost among all the other goings on. Oh well. I got one out of Jerome.

9:30 pm - 12:40 am - - After party. Where I found my dear friends had hung socks and underwear on the walls for decorations; weird. Then more cake and the movie "Legend of Zorro." It wasn't good.

Luv,
Clay
