I finally got paid last Friday 'n' went shopping for the weekend. I guess that's what I wanted to do for my birthday. Crawl thrift stores and bargain bin type places. (Okay, I can't be perfect, I have a few bad habits.) Anyhow... My spouse abandoned me. :/ I thought she was gonna crawl thrift stores too but she elected to call some gamer friend fo hers and hang out with him, leaving me alone. *sulk* She hates to shop. I don't know what's wrong with her. She shops like a man. Then again, I'm weirdo. When I do the thrift store thing, I like to try on at least one TOTALLY AWFUL outfit and see just how bizarre I can make myself look and giggle that someone actually once paid money for this thing.
Anyhow, because of the downer mood, and being dressed way too warm (It was cold and rainy in San Jose so I figured it would be colder and more rainy in Santa Cruz, but it was sunny. Who knew?) I didn't find a single thing I liked and spent most of Saturday afternoon feeling mopey. (A rarity for me. I usually come away with at least one good outfit.) I think Stacey realized she'd blown it and apologized for ditching me.

Then we spent the evening at the drive-in and stuffed ourselves on hotdogs and cheeseburgers. Watched X-Men 2 and Daredevil (well.. I fell asleep during Dare Devil but we'd already seen it in the regular theatre)

Sunday we continued our gluttony and sloth and went to dim sum for lunch, and then to Ross. I got a sleek new leather portfolio type bag to carry all junk in. (Think gigantic purse of doom!) Much mroe stylish and professional-looking than the green hiking back-pack I'd been carrying stuff in. Aso got some jogging clothes. (Uh-oh)

The only other birthday type thingy I got was a present from [livejournal.com profile] tigrise and Tanan. A Negativeland CD. Yay! It was a really nice present actually. very well thought out 'n' I like it a lot. Stacey hadn't heard any Negativeland before (my ex sold all of my CDs to support his smoking habit) but she liked it. 'n' I gotta say...
Car Bomb is a GREAT song for driving over H-17! :) Will have to remember to take CD out of car before visiting family in Oklahoma though. I can't imagine some of the songs would go over very well with them.

So... All in all, not a bad birthday weekend type thingy. I tried not to art or work all weekend. Challenging, but I think I needed some relaxation time. All in all, this weekend was much too short. I wasn't really ready to come back to work today. Ohwell. Que sera sera. There's a 3-day weekend at the end of this month. I'll just look forward to that.

How did I miss your birthday? You must've mentioned it somewhere -- right?

Happy belated birthday. :)

AWwwwww! *HUGZ YOU* I like to shop, but I don't do thrift stores. Does that make me shopping androgenous? How was X2? Any good? Glad you liked the CD. I had mentioned a while back, asking you if you'd heard the song 'Christianity is Stupid' because I figured that you'd probably like it. You then mentioned that you had it once and ex sold it. From that point on I knew what your birthday present would be. The hard part was finding it in the store. Solution? Amazon.com. *sighs* Medusa strikes again. I actually haven't heard the whole album. I'll have to go on a H-17 trip with you someday I suppose.
