XXVIII

Thank you all for the birthday wishes last Friday!! I was truly blown away by all of the amazing comments from all of you. Your kindness is the exact reason I've been blogging for nearly four years. ♥ THANK YOU ♥

My night was a mixture of amazing and not so amazing all at once. I got to celebrate with my great friends but at the same time I was over the bar that I selected once the excruciatingly loud jazz started and all of the hipsters flocked to the band. I've been to many small shows - of the loud, crazy punk persuasion - but the volume level at this bar was so outrageous and the booth we were given was literally five feet from the band. As a result I had a massive headache and ended up going home early. I was in my pjs and plopped in front of the TV by 12:30.

Regardless, it was great that so many people came to hang out. I wish I would have taken more pictures though :(

All in all it was a great start to my 28th year and i am looking forward to the next 360+ days ahead.

Loving your shoes and your gorgeous new hair, pretty girl! The amazing part sounds amazingggg, but I'm sorry about the headache factor - such a bummer and not the way to end your birthday! But at least you got to eat the most perfect looking mac & cheese I've ever seen in my entire life.
Love you!
