I've only ever had one surprise birthday party, and I loved it.
Me, too -- but I disagree on the day! I've always liked it.
Watching an old Celebrity Family Feud, and when the question was "Name a president who appears on money," the survey answer they didn't get was Benjamin Franklin. Presumably because THEY KNOW HE WASN'T PRESIDENT. (They did guess Hamilton, and he was up there, unlike Kennedy who is on that half-dollar, which is now making me second-guess if it was specific to presidents or not.)
Timelies all!
Just got back from a pizza party one of our friends arranged.(She does this from time to time so she can see friends she doesn't get to see often.) Ate too much pizza.
So cool: 100 years of Holmes & Watson:

So, our gym bought another gym that has an outdoor pool which is the best! The only downside is rec swim is only for 1.5 hours a day 3 days of the week (and longer hours on the other four days). So pleasant.
Duly noted, lisah. When's your birthday again
8/26!!
I ran into am old co-worker today and found out that my former company lost the contract I was working under and had to let a bunch of people go (including him). Yikes. Glad I got out when I did. I sent him a link to my new company's job page.
Yikes is right -- you made a good call, lisah.
Just had nice dinner with family (uncle and aunts and one cousin), AND got an invite to spend the night after fireworks on the beach next weekend, so that's good.
100% anti-embarrassment. Mine or anyone else's. Can barely stand to watch it on television.
I'm Zen in this.
I can't even bear slapstick movies.
Humiliation is why I don't watch most comedies on TV.
Ugh, stayed up too late last night reading, so I slept most of the day away and missed the farmer's market. I did manage to catch this year's cheesy Hallmark movie starring Kavan Smith, and found out at dinner tonight that the sushi place down the street where I'm a regular (but not enough of one, apparently) is closed for remodeling the next couple of months, with tonight being the last night. No more volcano rolls for me until autumn.
Someone at work just texted me "The Orion is always there." wtf. I guess I've been accidentally included in the seekrit plans. Soon someone will show up to kill me for knowing too much.
