Exhaustion = Happiness!

Late Thursday and Friday morning. I am widely awake 30 hours or so before my birthday. It's Friday when I had a nice dinner at Old Spaghetti House with Sissy and Partner. Yep, t'was a pre-celebration. It's been discussed and approved long time ago that we should at least meet, chat and dine during our birthdays, so yeah why not? I brought Xioms with me and fortunately, Kets brought Lana. After munching, we went to Timezone for the kids to enjoy. Restaurants are pretty boring for them. We then went home by 10pm.

Friday night. 11pm and still I'm walking around at home like a zombie picking up Xioms' stuff and cleaning. I know I haven't been sleeping or at least resting since I went home Friday morning from work last Thursday evening. I just feel I needed to clear things up very badly before I go to bed. I even managed to change my stat at Facebook before actually dozing! Hah!

Next morning, Saturday. Xioms woke me up and I was clearly familiar that it is my 26th year of existence. I just can't believe I made it that far, so thank you Father. Anyway, I don't have any huge plan for that special day. I just want to celebrate it with my munchkin, family and some trusted friends. Xioms was singing a happy birthday song and thought it was her birthday... again! We went downstairs to fill up our empty stomach. Mom and Achi was there and they both greeted me. Achi handed me a gift for my hairspa treatment. Yay! I was like wow, my day is getting better and better! By lunch time, my family and I feast on Mom's famous fried chix and my fusilli specialty.

Late afternoon, Saturday. Do you know that that day was a very tiring one? Anyhow, my droogs planned a birthday party for me. I decided to do it in Polu Kai for them to experience some good affordable cocktails. I was quite excited because this will be the time that we'll all meet again. It's been like 5 or 6 months since we last met.

Sunday morning. We had a blast and fortunately, the party didn't end there. We went to WG Diner in Makati Avenue for the extended celebration! We were caught by the rain but we can't resist the amber fluid that we're seeing on our table so we stayed, drink, chat, laugh, drink, eat, drink, laugh, drink again and again and again. We went home past 3 in the next morning, happy and fulfilled!

Today. I am glad I have shared and enjoyed this important day with my loved ones despite my decreasing strength, energy and stamina and and and... Hehe. Looking forward to another year of happiness, completeness and prettiness of course! Ta-ta!
