Well, I had a busy birthday weekend, full of lots of fun stuff (and presents, to boot!)

On Saturday, I went to Atlantic City with my colleague Heather. As you can see, I got a little "wasted." Ha ha. Get it? Wasted. Garbage. Ha. Er...



Anyway, neither of us won anything, but it was fun anyway. Especially the part where we ate at the casino buffet. Although I was good -- I only had six desserts:



Ok, I didn't have all of them ... just three. See more pics here.

Then, for my surprise on Sunday, my family took me to Medieval Times! I know! It sounds totally cheesy but was so much fun. Now, if you've never been to MT, you should totally go at least once. It's really neat. You get to eat with your hands, call your waitress "wench," and go gaga over the hot looking dudes with the swords. Ok, they're probably not real swords, but a girl can daydream, can't she? It was my birthday. I was entitled.

The king even wished me a happy birthday. Okay, so he got my name wrong -- maybe Ana is what they called Marias in Medieval times -- but he got my age ("not very old") right. You'll see what I mean here.

All in all, this was one of the best birthdays. Of course, I can't remember most of them, but this one was definitely up there. I think.

Thanks, Silent One. I'm still getting used to the hair, but it's nice to have it short in the summer.

Chandra, I believe you forgot to forward those pics. Though you remember those NSFW pics -- thanks for that. :-)

Maria,


I like the hot dudes with swords too! And MT does look like a lot of fun.

And remember what George Burns said - eat dessert first, life is uncertain! So you go with the desserts, especially my personal favorite, boston cream pie!

Cheers,

RFSJ
