Birthday Fun

Last night was a lot of fun.  I invited a bunch of people out to the Bell in Hand downtown to celebrate my birthday in costume.  I was the tooth fairy.  There were lots of other fun costumes and the band was great.  It was a mix of Princeton friends, BC friends, Boston friends, and roommates of friends.  I didn't end up drinking very much, which was probably for the best, and B got me a Grey Goose Gimlet which was terrific.  Overall, a very fun night.  The first time I've gone out dancing since I moved here.

 

Today, I've gotten lots of calls.  One message was my mom along with little Alyssa singing Happy Birthday, but mostly Alyssa is giggling since she doesn't understand the concept of an answering machine yet and she knew I wasn't talking back.  B and I walked into Harvard Square where he took me out to brunch.  Later, we drove out to Concorde and walked along the trails of the Revolutionary war battles.  The foliage was gorgeous, and it was good to be away from the city.

 

Yesterday morning, I went to the Red Sox parade with B, Devon, Brett, Kelly, and Yvonne.  I got to see my favorite players up close.  It was awesome!!  I saw Ortiz and Damon and Manny and Pedro and Bronson and Derek.  I have some great pics and even some video!  I might post it online soon.

 

Tuesday night Alexandra is having an Election Day get-together and I'm really psyched for it.
