Journal Rudy Rodarte's Journal: My 27th trip around the sun.
A recap of my birthday:
El gallo was wide awake
It started off much like any other day. I woke up at 5:51 and hit the snooze for an extra 9 minutes of sleepy bliss. But I got up before 6, bot dressed for the gym and started on breakfast for me and Priscilla. I was out the door by 6:30. I got to the gym by 6:50 but my phone was ringing. It was my dad wishing me an early morning birthday. I thanked him for calling and went on in to the gym. I opted to run only a mile and a half so I'd have time to do a quick chest workout. After the workout, I grabbed a shower and headed over work.
Easy day? Hardly
Well, since Wednesday is my busiest day workwise, I got right to it after heating up my breakfast. But, the boys showed up with juice, cokes, tacos from Juarez and a cake from Wal-Mart. Good times. Now, everyone was in and out of the cube farm, so we opted to cut the cake in the afternoon. However, today, one of my co-workers who just came back on 7-Sep, decided today was his last. So, all of his work, that was just assigned to him, will have to be reassigned to us. :S
After fighting through my Wednesday morning beat-down, I published all my deliverables and was ready for some lunch. We couldn't decide where to go. So, after a quick chat, we agreed on Hooters! Yum. I had the chilli and a side ceasar salad, as always. It was a good time, but much too short. With all our new assignments, we had to get back to work.
The afternoon, was jam-packed with work. Between the work and meetings, we managed to cut the cake and give a small piece to most of the services and support people. I didn't have any, but I hear it was quite good. We also had some ice cream as well. What a party!
Move out!
I didn't leave work around 17:50!!! What kind of a birthday is that? Well, I got home and it was time to open some presents! Cha-ching! I got 2 XBox and 1 GBA games. I got West Side Story Ultra delux wide screen edition and the 2003-2004 Titans video. Sweet! My mom called and told me I have more loot from Houston coming in, too. Hopefully it will be a box of my colonge. I am running kinda low.
After a quick dinner, Priscilla and I headed out to the movies. I wanted to play one of my new games, but I was vetoed. We have pretty much seen everything we want, so far. So, we opted to go see A Day without a Mexican. It was kinda corny and silly at times, but over all, it was OK. I'd say about 2.5 * out of 5. We got home and I hopped on the iMac to write this quick recap for you! Enjoy my fellow /.ers! Oh, and happy brithday to me, and my Virgo sisters from High School that shared a b-day with me!
