So my birthday was yesterday. It was good, just felt like any other day. Granted, a good any other day, but still. I guess it comes with the old lady territory. Went and had some quality "me" time at the beach. Tide was way out so that just made it so much prettier and more interesting. Wanted to buy some flowers on the walk back but I couldn't find any, then some guys in a car yelled something at me and I decided to mall-walk it back to the apartment. Then some lunch and quality siesta time, watching the Facebook B-Day posts roll in. Later, out for the night at a pub in the city, where I found what I've been looking for (and Jenn found a waiter), but my comfort food. Fried chicken fillet with fried eggs and French fries. A pile of fried goodness. I needed it. I loved it. If it were legal, I'd marry it. Followed up by ice cream and a trip to the candy store. Lovely evening. But, just didn't have that special birthday pizazz I kind of wanted. But overall, better than the previous two years. And today, at IKEA, I got my flower. A daisy named Fernando. Because he's pretty.
So, like always, our situation is altering and up in the air. There's the chance that we'll have to go home in April if we can't find another option/loophole. I'm completely mixed about this, given my mood at any random moment. Sometimes I want to stay, other time's I'd jump at the chance to go home. Its not that I don't like it here and want to leave, because that's not at all the case. I love it here, its fantastic. I just miss home. Argh, confliction! Yes, I know that's not a real word. Whatever. Here, have a picture or two that I took yesterday.
There were tons and tons of brightly colored rocks all over the beach. I picked up a few choice ones in my favorite colors. Totally nabbed a purple one.
