Happy Birthday To Me!

So I'm twenty-six years old now. I can honestly say it was one of the best birthday weeks I've had in years. For those of you who don't know, my birthday was on July 17th. I started the weekend off by going to Aura Lounge with Shane, Francis, and Mo. I had made plans to meet Ryan there to pick up the money he owed me for the ad I had created. Since my birthday was only a few days away, I figured I'd make a night out of it. The thought had crossed my mind that the whole thing was to be a big birthday surprise, but when we got there, the club was almost completely empty. As is common at these birthday outings, my friends were more than generous with the drinks. Later that night, A.J. and Daynah showed up to buy me a few drinks. Needless to say, by the end of the night, I was drunker than I had been in a very long time. Francis was generous enough to drive us all home.

The following day Mo took me out to an amazing restaurant called Embrujo Flamenco Tapas Bar. It was absolutely amazing. The selection and flavour of all the food is awesome. We tried several dishes but my favourite by far was the shrimp with portobello mushroom in truffle oil. The live music and flamenco dancer managed to make the evening perfect. I would definitely suggest that everyone dine at this restaurant at least once. It was a great experience.

After the restaurant, Mo and I went to Milestones for a few drinks. The first glass of wine I had was a bit dry and didn't taste that great. The second was much better. We stayed there for a while and finally came back to my house. It was a great day.
