The Birthening
May. 12th, 2020 07:45 amBoy I bet you guys are sick of my birthday posts. This is the last one.
I'm 27 now! Wow! Fuck! Shit!
Work was mercifully easily, no dead folks and I spent most of the day working on Death Certificates, then halfway through the day my coworkers surprised me with a banana creme pie! Banana is my favorite of all flavors, especially artificial. Right after that, my friend of 13+ years, Chelsea, drove up to my place of work and gave me a little succulent, iced coffee and shiba inu stickers and we hugged a lot because I haven't seen her in a month, which is very long for us.
Alex picked me up right after for our ~staycation~ at a local Airbnb, then immediately made me kalbi beef with grilled king oyster mushrooms, rice, kimchi, and fish cakes his mom so kindly bought for me. He also made a devil's food cake for me, which was delicious.
Alex had some very thoughtful gifts for me. He knows I miss my friends, so he not-so-sneakily contacted my closest ones to leave me a message, then made this big boy.
( Yes it says Birtday )
He also got me this sick ancient arterial embalming bottle! It's so beautiful :')
After my presents we went upstairs to watch my favorite movie, THE THING (1982) on my laptop since this place doesn't have a tv lol. Alex being a former bartender was VERY excited to make a The Thing-based cocktail, he had been planning for it for a while. Here's photo evidence (the neon green cups were all that was available).
( The Outpost 31 Cocktail )
It was overall a very sweet and thoughtful birthday, I'm so flattered that everyone would go the extra mile to make it special and fun, especially Alex!
