My birthday was bad freakin' ass.

I turned 19 watching Corey nail songs by Metallica on Guitar Hero in his room before having Carmen, Urbashi, Chanae and Andrew surprise me with a piece of cake and creme brule! Which I've never had before.

Was definitely caught off guard, but I love them.

Had to go to work on my birthday and the entire day Brandon kept messing around with me just because it was my birthday. Had a ton load of wishes which is always sweet. Had brown gravy sliding down my shoulders. Countered with barbeque sauce. Almost started a food fight!

While I was eating dinner, they brought in a huge cake for me which Conner baked and Lori helped with the frosting. I took a picture but it's in Conner's phone. Promise it'll be up here soon! Had the whole dining room singing happy birthday to me. Was so embarrassed about it.

But they're all sweethearts. I love each and every one of them.

Party started at the campfire! Lars made me a card that had a cute walrus on it! His drawing skills are debatable but hey, it's the thought that counts, isn't it? And I believe he did put a lot of thought into it.

The fire was where all the insanity started. We hung around and talked, laughed over random stories. Passed the peppermint schnapps around while clutching a PBR in the other hand. I shared my 12 pack with Lars and Corey. Honestly, I think they drank most, if not all of it.

What happens after that was a complete and total disaster. Long story short, I owe almost everybody for taking care of me that night. Dustin for picking me up off the stairs and carrying me back to my bed. Chanae, Lars and Matt for sitting in for about a half hour just make sure I won't throw up and choke on my vomit or something.

Best part is I don't remember any of it! None of it at all. I missed work the next day and my manager was nice enough to give me the day off. It was embarrassing meeting all of them the next day because I was probably a huge mess the night before.

That's how I turned 19. Straight up hardcore. But I loved every single crazy minute of it. The ones I can remember at least ;p

You've got a smile that can light up the whole town.
Embarrassingly giggly.
Extremely ecstatic.

And to the hands that got tangled up in mine, to the night long back rubs, to drinking all my beer, to that perfect spot in front of the fire, you were the best ending for an amazing birthday :)

Today is beautiful.

I'm lounging outside at the patio staring at clear blue skies and hills in front of me. It is absolutely gorgeous and I only wish that the pictures I take would do more justice

That's the clear summer skies I'm talking about.

Thank you again though to everyone who remembered and wished me on my birthday despite me being so far away this time around. Turning 19 doesn't feel like a big deal, only another excuse to party but it's definitely been memorable.

Until next time, which is soon, I guess?
