5 Random Friday Things

1. I’m going to attempt to make a whole, roasted chicken tonight. For the first time ever. It seems so grown up. You know? Roasting a whole chicken is something adults do. And I don’t often feel like an adult.

2. And I guess my grown up, chicken cooking task seems fitting seeing as I turn 25 Monday (so old). To celebrate I’m having a birthday party this weekend. Not a real birthday party (with hats and a cake and things). A hey, come to this bar and have a drink with me, kind of birthday party. And I’m excited. It’s at 9pm at Leny’s (on 56th), if you’re in Seattle (or elsewhere – my friend from Chicago will be there, so BAM) and you want to come. They serve steins (is that what they’re called? the giant mugs?) of beer. And it’s walking distance from my house. Double BAM!

2(a). I use too many parentheses.

3. It’s 11-11-11 today, in case you didn’t already know. Make a wish. I know I did.

4. My newest baby cousin, Tot (no, not his real name, even though it SHOULD be – I’m looking at you, Chip & Katie) is supposed to be born any day now. His dad, Chip (my first and favorite cousin) thought that he was going to be born today. Also Chip is a veteran, so it would have been perfect (I guess it could still happen). I think little Tot will be here on my birthday. And his actual due date is on Thursday, the 17th. No matter when he’s born, I can’t wait to meet him!

5. One more picture from Danielle’s wedding, because I’ve been sucking at posting pictures with my posts lately. Also I love this. What a perfect day!!
