Did i just have another birthday?

I had another birthday, an altogether awesome and fun one. I figure when the time comes I'll be cursing at being reminded that I'm getting old, so I might as well have fun with it now, right.

Michael Kwan got me a box thing. It's a very entertaining box thing, thanks Mike. I can't stop staring at it.

Then we went to Marina Barrage to do awesome shit like fly kites and smear cake icing on my face while being put in an armlock by a bear. Then eat the cake. Earlier on we managed to get the kite up pretty quick and it's not so much fun as it is satisfying that you manage get the piece of crap to stay in the air. Of course, with my luck, it started raining! So we had to bail and play bridge under shelter till it stopped.

Then it stopped! And we pranced and danced and cheered and skipped and trotted and frolicked out into the grassy field to try and get our cloth thing back up in the air. Of course, with my luck, it took us about 6 times as long to actually get it up this time. This is probably because Nicolette told me that if we managed to get the kite up she'd help me find someone I could date, and God (being God) overheard the conversation and had a few objections.

Then when we finally got it up, there came the long struggle of keeping the thing from falling. Which it promptly managed to do every time Ben appeared.

Moral of the story is that if I actually do manage to find a girlfriend, she's gonna fall for Ben. Stay the hell away from my girlfriend, Ben, I'm warning you.

In any case, thanks for making my birthday awesome, everyone. It was awesome.
