Birthday Overview:
Well, had nearly a good week of birthdayness, having funs.
Let's start on...
Last Monday - Bank Holiday, 29th - Adam's Birthday...
Made out way back to Ad's where he opened cards, took money out and didn't read them.
Loitered around Dan's, and went to a big Wacky Warehouse pub to eat, drink, and watch 2 small children be ...well, 2 small children. (Just for clarification, the mothers' of those children were part of our group, we were not just watching them) But a few people had fun "minding the kids" in the Wacky Warehouse, bring on the Ball-Pit! Everyone ate too much.
Moving on to Thursday:
Went to JB's for the first time in a while, girls were out, it was someone's birthday soon... lots of dancing, yay, music is getting progressively worse there. Saw Roo which was cool, he's getting tubbier. People were arguing by end of night, but we left around that point, fun night.
Friday, aka. Paul's B'day:
Surprise! Though he I have a suspicioun he knew :| Sunny day, played lots of games, made ourselves look splendidly immature, which is always fun, played cricket and frisbee and things, and ate lots of bbq'd meat, oh yes. Nice chill out talking and stuff, always good to see people. Thank you Robyn (even if you aren't reading this).
Saturday!
After work dragging a little towards the end, got to B'ham with plenty of time to get to The Glee Club. A party of 30, splendid. Included the family, a bunch of my friends and a bunch of sisters' friends. Everyone laughed their arses off, which I am proud of. Thanks for all coming. Cheesy disco after was too cheesy, so we made the dancing short. Everybody got on really well, (even Dad with Sam's friends :o!) Ate crisps before getting home, yay.
Sunday (The sisters' B'days):
Samantha and Tammy's birthday, needless to say I didn't see them. I got through my day avoiding revising for my exam the next day.
Monday (Yes, there's a b'day in here):
Had exam, sorted modules for next year out. Nice to see Sarah to see she's just as confused as I am about most of this America business. Tammy visited to drop of/pick up presents. Left shortly, taking me to Sam's with her, and then left shortly. Loitered. Was kidnapped and taken to a pub I didn't know, whilst only wearing my very scraggy-loungingroundthehouse-clothes (the button on my trousers was missing.) It is Carl's b'day. I was tired for most of this, but hanging out with this small bunch of Sam's friends wasn't too bad, Carl was drunk and kept attacking me :(
It was also Samantha and Colin's Wedding anniversary, another thing to be celebrated, rah rah rah!
TUESDAY!!!! MY B'DAY :D
Sooo, 6-6-06 arrived and nothing at all bad happened.
Opened cards and pressies. Loved the translation Jemmy ;) Got earrings; and a bracelet and ring set; A '21' glass,;'21' trinket; Piña Colada; money money; some clothes; aaaand the most gorgeous necklace and bracelet off Adam. If my camera worked I'd upload a picture.
I had lunch with Sam, Colin, Mom, Chris and Carl, a little italian in the Mailbox, very sophisticated, had a large pizza which I ate ALL of; it was a struggle but worth it.
I chilled out and had a few happy convos online, thanks ;)
It was a lovely sunny day again :D
Played The Game of Life with my brother, where we reacquainted ourselves with the rules, and it seemed to be over pretty quickly, so maybe we missed something. I won... what did he expect on a teacher's wage eh.
Adam took me for dinner to a place my sister recommended, which did a delicious steak. Nice and cosy with great decor: all old fashioned, medieval meets ship (the placse is called The Galley)
I enjoyed my birthday greatly. I just can't get used to saying "I'm 21." Sounds a bit old.

HEALTH
Number of hospital stays: none?
Number of visits to the doctor: Does anyone keep count? Not a lot, a few times when younger to be told I had tonsilitis/get free paracetamol. Went last week, I have to pay for them to fill in a medical form I could probably do myself, tut.

Cousins: Not sure how many, about 10 real ones? Again, haven't seen them since young, and I don't want to. LOts more none-blood-related "cousins", I see 6 on a regular enough basis.
Second cousins: More than likely, I don't know them.
Heritage: English.
Also, my thhroat is killing me... But still, Yay! *dances lethargically*
