Awkward...

Yep, parts of Allan's birthday on Saturday were way too awkward.

I felt like I had to say something, but couldn't, and didn't really want to. "I'll play the winner in foosball" was all I had. And the winner didn't even bother to take up the offer... understandable... I'm pretty awesome at foosball :D Ok, so I'm just better than average :bucktooth: It felt pretty good winning though, I have to say. It felt great. And I'm not just talking about the foosball.

I'm so lucky to have such great people in my life - colleagues, friends and family. It's always more important who you spend your time with, than what you spend doing - at the end of the day, it's the people in your life that are important; without them, I wouldn't be where I am today, nor as happy as I am today.

The rest of the birthday was fun. Especially the 15 minute foosball battle between Geoff and myself, I had such a great time. I felt bad when Al didn't like his DVDs though, I was sure he'd like his gift :( I should have gone with my initial instincts with Gran Torino :shakefist:

Sunday was Alicia's mom's 50th birthday party at their place. I'm so proud of Alicia, she works so hard, and is so thoughtful - her speech (that I think Lee-Anne helped with) had her/their mom teary eyed... it was a very touching moment :)

I'm a bit nervous for Alicia's birthday karaoke... what could I sing?! I can't sing?! :fear: We'll see :D While on the theme, it's also almost my birthday. Think I'll have to do something this year.
