questa | My birthday

Because of the bite infection and dealing with that I really didn't bother planning a birthday, I figured I'd be too sick and didn't want to cancel on people last minute. James encouraged me to at least set up something small and just see how I was feeling so I invited a few people to meet up downtown.

The day of I was bad and didn't take any of my pills, was glad to have the damn IV tube out but the stupid antibiotics made me so sick so I figured I'd skip my morning, afternoon and late afternoon doses.

James had got me a few awesome gifts, a couple which I was allowed earlier because I was so sick. Same with my Mum's...it was a book and although hard to hold...it gave me something to do.

The morning of: Had yummy Lucky Charms cereal thanks to James and was feeling mostly okay. Was going to call/text a few more people and see if they wanted to join us but after hitting send after responding to a happy birthday txt from Derek...my phone died...again.

Went up to Metrotown since James had a haircut appt. and I had to take phone in to Bell again. As usual they weren't any help. Dude tried to sell me a Blackberry...ugh. Phone was gonna be in the shop for 2-3 weeks....this was not good because I needed to text people I'd be late getting dowmtown thanks to the unexpected Bell crap plus Andrew was coming all the way out from Squamish and I needed to let him know where we were.

We had a quick lunch and treat at the food court before running back to my place to get dressed.

Made it to the meeting spot 45mins late =(
Everyone was able to come except Andrew because he had no idea where we were =(

First we went to Fat Burger....Mmmm yummy fries, burgers and milkshakes....soo good. Unexpected presents and cards, it was so nice ^_^ Then we wandered over to the beach to hang out and watch the sunset (because of the hundreds of forest fires...we've had some pretty amazing sunsets). Most of the gamers were not thrilled with this idea and stood around talking about games. James and I played around and Joyee even went swimming ^_^

Then she drew things on us XD

And me

Sunset came and went but it was not impressive, so we wandered Denman looking at some shops and James bought me a really pretty Sunflower ^_^ Then we went for Cake at True Confections.

Home time came not long after we were done because I figured I should probably take a pill and within 15 minutes I was starting to feel awful. Despite that it was a really great birthday <3
