the celebration rundown in brief

not in briefs. although that might have been fun, too. next year, perhaps.

grabbed lunch with kettlebrew at langers deli for one of the best corned beef sandiwiches around.

headed to blu monkey bar and lounge for splendid evening hanging out with the friendlies. mellow, mature, excellent spot for this milestone.

then danced at club underground where i was reminded again why i'm glad to leave the 20s behind me.

drove down to san diego for a mini-break with my penquin. went to the zoo and took tons of photos. saw a harpy eagle tear apart a rabbit carcass. watched polar bears play with water bottles. learned that clyde the orangutan shares my birthday (i'm older by a year). it was lots of fun! lots of walking, but totally worth it for me. i looooooooooooove zoos!

then on the drive back had a really decadent, unhealthy meal at the hat- a pastrami burger and onion rings. it didn't kill me, so i guess it's making me stronger. ;)

and today, i'm off to splurge with shopping, sushi, and maybe shisha.

wooo hooooo!!!!! 8-23!!!!!
