Day 2- A Birthday Dinner

So today I went to (Karen) my moms house to make her birthday dinner. It was somewhat difficult for me because Friday, I didn't wake up until 7:00 pm; so I had stay up all night Friday and all day Saturday to get my schedule back on track. I stayed awake all night and at about 10:00 Saturday morning, I got dressed for my moms dinner. At this point I had no idea it was for her birthday because I COMPLETELY forget about it! My moms friend Melissa came and picked me up at about noon. It was then that she informed me about what was going on. When I found out, I felt so bad because Thursday (the day before her birthday) I had to cancel lunch with here because my phone died before it could wake me up. So we got to my moms house and her and Melissa left to go shopping whilst me and my brother made a weird spaghetti dish with anchovies, olives, and garlic. For dessert we made a de-lish Tiramisu! My brother, Johnny, dipped the cookies in espresso and rum, while I mixed together the topping: egg yolks, sugar, espresso, and Mascarpone cheese.

I have to say, we did a great job! It was soooo good! I can't say I loved the spaghetti stuff with all the anchovies and olives, but it definitely had an interesting taste. After we ate and chatted it up, Melissa drove me back to the corner of hell I call home. It was odd, I was falling asleep on the car ride back "home" but as soon as we got into the neighborhood, I was wide awake. I'm writing this at 3:00 am, Sunday. I haven't slept since Friday. Well actually I napped on my moms bed for an hour but that's it. I can't help but wonder if the lack of sleep is directly related to my tense shoulder/neck and screwed up back....

Any ideas? Comment, whatever,
