Surprise Cake

I like mint tea with really thick cream in it that makes it that milky green color that reminds me of Jordan's eyes.

Staying after work to post, briefly, I feel like I'm coming down with something and so want to go home and sleep/watch videos/crochet, but my birthday was a whole WEEK ago and I haven't written about all of the presents and love and surprise cake-

On Friday I was about a minute and a half late to work, and was all ready to apologize except my cooworkers jumped out from behind the desk and blew bubbles at me, declaring HAPPY BIRTHDAY and laughing. Later in the day Mike and I went to our other warehouse and he took an abnormally long time measuring wire, and taping up rolls of it, and measuring it again, and when we got back I realized it was a stall- the wharehouse was full of electricians, retro folk, and my boyfriend, and it was a surprise party. My second ever surprise cake (it was a carrot cake), the first being from the boys at Electric voodoo tattoo, and it's awesome, especially because all of these people have only known me a couple months.
My Antarctica birthday was great, a day of laziness and sillyness, as it followed Thanksgiving and everyone was in food and alcohol comas. Sandwich made me a dress (I am wearing it in the picture below), and I opened a big package from my mom, which was filled with PARTY SUPPLIES, so I gave away party hats like a madwoman, since they are ALWAYS a good fashion idea.

If I could say one thing about where I am at in this point in my life I would say: I am a girl who is rich in friends. These friends make my life wonderful. I am so lucky to know and love and be loved by all of these awesome people. I think this is my greatest wealth.

Other things:
My life is very surreal and quirky, but/and it is all mine.
I get to be in love with my best friend.
I'm starting on the career of my dreams.
I'm in Antarctica.
