The Birthday Trifecta

I have a new theory. It takes three things to make a wonderful (albeit cliche) birthday...

Balloons from a wonderful friend



...Flowers from a hot guy



...and of course there has to be cake (not pictured - but let me assure you, it was beautiful...and delicious).

I am pleased to announce that I managed to secure the trifecta this year. And the icing on the cake (no pun intended) to complete the rarely achieved quad-fecta? Two-for-one drinks at the appropriately named Liquor Lyle's.

So yes, my birthday was fantastic. I got flowers from a hot guy on Sunday night (Squee!). My coworkers brought in a cake to work (chocolate with chocolate frosting. Heaven.). And Karen brought balloons to the bar, which was really, really cute.

I feel very loved.
