I am simultaneously exhausted and ecstatic.
Firstly, let me just announce, I GOT A ROLE IN THE SCHOOL PLAY! I still can’t really believe it. I’ll be playing a bitchy/smart-ass waitress in one of the 5 ten-minute shorts Concordia is performing this semester. This may or may not have to do with the fact that I auditioned as a bitchy/smart-ass McDonald’s employee. This particular play involves a chick who has been sucked into an alternate reality where she can’t get anything she asks for. The entire play is in a restaurant setting. Needless to say, I have a bunch of fun/humorous lines and I probably would have picked this role if I could have myself. I’m excited beyond belief but also preparing to make some sacrifices. The first being that I can’t spend Valentines Day with my hubby due to rehearsals and that a lot of other free time will now be sucked away (Shit starts getting really real the week of my birthday.) But right now, I’m kind of on a natural high and have decided it will all be more than worth it. At the same time, I’m pretty tempted to fall asleep on my keyboard right now. Trying to take on the world is kind of tiring sometimes. But a good kind of tiring.
Secondly, husband’s birthday is today. He’s 29! My friends and I threw a little surprise party for him on Saturday. And when I say my friends and I, I mostly mean my friends. I spent the day with Robby’s family (Who spoiled us with cupcakes and stuff) and babysat that night, so I was short on time. Katie was more than happy to let me use her place, and Tessa bought cake and balloons (which she wouldn’t let me pay her back for.) Both of these dear girl friends prepared festivities and made everything look party-ready and perfect. They even wrote some of Robby’s token sayings all over the balloons. (IE; “F***ing A!”) Husband, being consistently late to everything (One of the reasons I may kill him before he’s 30…),showed up an hour late. My group of friends and I sat in the dark for 60 minutes, talking and giggling and once, accidentally surprising the wrong peeps. We had a blast waiting for my tardy dude to show up.
Last night, my friend Priscilla surprised me with a carton of ice-cream and we had a girl’s night of wine, dramatic tv shows and chocolate chip cookie dough ice-cream.
Today at my nanny job, I accidentally fed the two year old artichoke dip. No chips included. I thought it was pasta. Afterward,I brought hubby home some presents, studied and did my 4 days a week ab-workout routine. The boy and I just got home from Mexican-food (His favorite) date night.
Life is really good. I need a nap. But naps can wait. Life cannot! Now excuse me, while I watch a movie with the birthday boy and hopefully do not drool on him whilst snoring.
What a darling baby photo! Happy bday to hubs!
Isn’t she?!
I’ll tell him you said so! 😀
Gotta love when you POWER THROUGH to have a good time. Naps are better when you’re feeling really happy and fulfilled, and you fall into them (naps) while reminiscing on the good times you had. 🙂
Congrats on the part in the play! You da bomb!
Right…it’ll be time to reminisce later haha. Thanks girly! 😀
So stoked for you! Glad you got the role! Sounds totally worth the busy schedule. And haha, I love the idea of being an hour late to your own birthday party 😀
thank-you! and yes, very Robby of him to be fashionably late haha. 😉
Well done – that’s so exciting! And happy birthday to the hubby 🙂 hope he had a great time! And hope that that two year old enjoyed his artichoke dip, the lucky thing!
haha. thanks! 😀

hi jeanny!answeet! 1 of the few ceehsy-ness na kaya kong i-tolerate. most of the time ganyan din parents ko, after 30 yrs of marriage, lagi pa din magkaholding hands habang nanonood ng TV. kwentuhan ng kwentuhan bago matulog. and til now sabay pa din maligo! ^_^may you have more sweet years together! ♥

So… when is the week of your birthday?
Have you seen Drunken Udder ice cream? It’s got booze in it!!
I might have eaten about 6 mini-cupcakes, which looked like the ones in your pics, since Sat. Let’s say it was for your hubby’s bday.
I just woke up from a nap. Man, that felt good! Hope yours does too.
thanks girl! March 24th is the bday.
That sounds AMAZING. I must have it.
And now I reallyyy want a nap…
And more cupcakes.
Happy birthday for your husband!
same age like me 😀

Congrats on the play! And Happy Birthday to your husband! That’s a lot of icing on those cupcakes. I want one. Now.

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh yes and haps to the B hubby! and I am so excited about your hot waitress role 😉
hehehe. thanks girly 🙂
Congrats on the role!!
thanks , lady! 😀
Oh congratulations!! I’m so happy for you and it really does sound like a fantastic role! I’m sure it’ll be worth the time sacrificed, even though I remember rehearsals sometimes felt like a downer, the actual performance always eclipsed that 🙂 But I definitely get what you mean about taking on the world being tiring!
Happy belated birthday to your husband! It sounds like you all had a fabulous time, I love that he was an hour late to his own surprise party, it’s definitely better than being early in those circumstances (which my boyfriend probably would be!) 😛
