Birthday Celebrations

I'm officially old(er).

Let me recount the celebrations:

Friday October 16 - Seattle - Dinner at Icon with some of my closest friends:
The food was great, the Orange Drop is an amazing drink if you're so inclined for a martini, and the company was the best a girl could ask for.

Saturday October 17 - Seattle - Joint celebration with another friend that included watching the Sounders win at the College Inn and then dancing and pool at The Ballroom in Fremont:
Things I've learned - I have to go to more 'Football' games - those chants are hilarious and catchy AND the pizza at The Ballroom is HUGE. (honestly I swear one slice was probably a foot long and 10 inches across at the crust).

Sunday October 18 - Kenmore - Take out Fortune Inn with the husband
I LOVE CHINESE FOOD!! ('nuff said)

Saturday October 24 - Spokane - Dinner and Drinks with friends.
Went to the casino for dinner, dancing and gambling. The food was good, and reasonably priced. The music in the "lounge" however, was NOT suitable for dancing, unless you're a little old person (in your 60's probably). Drinks were good, I didn't gamble, those that did won though, so maybe I should have tried my luck. Went to Press for late night cocktails. Very good, I will go back.

Sunday October 25 - Spokane - nothing - HOWEVER I was inundated with facebook messages, text messages and phone calls filled with well wishes.

Still to come: Sunday November 1 - Bothell - brunch with the in-laws: Can't wait!!!

I do love my birthday! Thanks to all who helped celebrate.
