And Then It’s 24

For the first time in my life I did not anticipate my birthday, to be honest I kept forgetting it was around the corner. It was not because I feared getting older, that I welcome, it was just that so much was going on. I was working a new job, I was preparing to go to Miami, we were looking for a new apartment, and I had so much to be happy for in my life there was no longing to have a day where I would be the ceneter and focus of everyone’s attention.

When my birthday hit I was awake at midnight working on Bethéa Indigo and the messages began to flood in. at 12:03 my phone rang and it was Jayie to wish me a happy birthday, he was on a streak of being the first to wish all his friends a happy birthday.

MeTo was more excited about my birthday than I was which makes since, as I am usually more excited about his than he is.  I was tired so I went to bed and when I woke up I was surprised with a bubble bath and then breakfast and roses.  If had did nothing else for me all day I would have still been the happiest man in the world.

Later as we got dressed to go apartment hunting MeTo and our roommate came in with a gift.  I knew what it was once I heard it was from both of them but I managed to look surprised and thrilled.  It was a basket full of dark Ghirardelli chocolate and some kind of coffee. I was happy to have plain coffee.  All the coffee we on hand was flavored and I was sick of it.

Later that night MeTo took me out to SoHo one of the upscale restaurants in  New Brunswick. It was amazing we did our best to observe the rules of Passover. The food was great and the company even better.  We took our time eating then went to Dunkin Donuts for coffee. With it being passive it meant no donuts and after just having meat we could not have milk in out coffee.  One look at the time and we had to make haste.  I had an early morning and it was getting late.

I wanted nothing more than to show MeTo my appreciation the way people in love typically do but I was tired. We cuddled and before I knew it I was having the rid of my life.  A 30min birthday present for the both of us.
