Without further ado, I present "Precious Moments: December 11 - 12, 2004."
Saturday evening was kicked off with a friend of mine's Grown-Up Party. She just bought a new condo, so it was a housewarming/ holiday/ semi-birthday gathering:
Ellen (my personal training client, for those of you newer to my LJ) brought a cake, which I happily had two pieces of:
After the party, Jess took me to dinner at the Cottonwood, in which I ended up eating even more dessert and briefly felt like I was going to die soon after.
Before heading to
Jess and I made it to Aimee's at around 11:15 where I was presented with Aimee's masterpiece:
(Note Li'l Jon's face... Aimee's got some serious confectionary talent!)
As the clock inched closer to the Inevitable, I got pouty. Wah.
At a few minutes of midnight, Aimee gathered everyone around and began the birthday countdown, New Year's Eve style:
Right on cue, Aimee lead the whole party in song...
...and the depression set in:
I got over myself quickly and, from there, the night took on a life of its own:
I *heart* Aimee's bike! This Spring my KHS will see if it can holds its own with the Bianchi!
Here we have a couple of hotties wit' attitude:
Aimee took Jess and a few others on a trip down memory lane by sharing one of her high school yearbooks:
It's not hard to pick out Aimee in the Prom picture!
Things started getting a little out of control:
I have no words for this...
...or this:
Alas, at 3:00 a.m. it was time for Jess and I to depart. Aimee made sure I had the leftover cake to take with me and our good-bye was rather dramatic:
On the way to the car Aimee found a random door on the lawn. In true Punk Rock style, she made sure to jump on it:
Note how she manages to do all that WITHOUT dropping the cake
I went over to hug her good-bye... and down we went...
...heh heh heh:
Luckily, the cake survived:
Aimee couldn't bear to see us leave, so she walked us to Jess's truck. Naturally we had to play around in front of this Porsche:
Jess got me and my trashed self back to her apartment where I promptly passed out. Thankfully, we don't get hangovers in my family. Otherwise, with all that I drank, I can only imagine the shape I could have been in the next day. My 28th birthday weekend was more fitting for a 21st! In fact, turning 21 was WAY boring compared to this one...! Ha!!
On my birthday itself Aimee and Robyn attended Jess's hockey game with me. It was a phenomenal game in which they managed to beat the number 1 team in the league, 3 - 2. Go Cheetahs!
Jess made some incredible saves:
I got to show off my birthday gift from Jess. Notice the puck in my hand... Jess's teammate
According to Jess, this sweatshirt makes me a "cool kid" in Hockey World
Following the game we all went out to dinner at Bella Luna in JP. Jess's friend
Suffice to say, I'm exhausted. Woooooo.
