Friday June 10- work ended early (below is the card, and presents katy and toni got me)
Hung out at Shirley's office for a while then went to a 20 dollar mani pedi place where the women said they liked my short haircut in chinese, which made me feel better as I've been unsure about it lately. Shirley's nail color was very nice, and we talked about how connected what we dream about is with real life. Rushed over in a cab to my Birthday dinner, at French Roast, where a few friends and I had a nice supper and some Spanish wine and fruit and cheese plates.
Chatted into the night, and my high school friends Toni and Katy slept over.Saturday, the day after my official birthday, but still the weekend of- we woke up late.
and brunched at The Adore, in the sunny small upstairs section, where I had some delicious strawberry waffles with whipped cream and they got french toast. Katy and Toni got on the train, I met my friend Avi and we met some others to go to the Belmont Stakes
which I used to glorify as a little girl when reading books like Ruffian
. I got to see and pet some beautiful horses but didnt bet anything. I had a nice time despite the rain, then I came home and passed out.Sunday I got up around noon and some friends and I went to the Big Apple BBQ thing at Madison Square Park. I went last year and did the same thing, it was fun, but not surprising. Also it was my mom's birthday.
All in all I had a pretty nice birthday weekend, and am in a pleasant mood lately. I feel really greatful to have people I care about, who care about me, and a job I like doing. It's a lucky thing and I feel I've taken that for granted sometimes.
