It was my birthday yesterday and it was the best in years. I think I overhype it every year and am then surprised when it ends up being anything less than amazing. This year I wasn't too excited as I knew I'd be doing my essay during the day and didn't have anything planned for the evening.
I ended up sitting in the front garden in the gorgeous sunshine, eating muffins and drinking Blond Russians (Helen's name for my new drink-white russians with vanilla milkshake instead of milk!) with Helen, James and Vicky. We played Articulate! which is so much fun, especially when a bit tipsy and playing with highly competitive people. Helen and I lost, probably because we were too busy giggling to answer any questions.
At 7pm I met Adam at the station, not knowing where we were going or what he had planned. We went to Tequila bar for some cocktails and then he took me to Cubanos. I've never been before and it was lovely. Mmmmm mojitos! Then we went onto Ha!Ha!Bar for more cocktails. Taxi home to carry on drunken board game playing with everyone.
Didn't get to bed until gone 2am but feel surprisingly brilliant today! Maybe my body has increased my alcohol tolerance levels now that I'm pretty much an adult....
Home this weekend so my parents can spoil me on Sunday.
It feels like summer and I love it.
