meisa's lagoon

so i've been found out. i was planning on revealing anyway, because i am a big fan of my birthday, but yesterday was the big day for me. 25 years ago yesterday, i was born. i had a whole mess of celebration starting last week and it was rounded out last nite with some absolutely fabulous lemon cake that my darling roommate andrea made for me.
i have much to blog about, but since i've gotten back, i've been ridiculously busy doing absolutely nothing. i really wonder where the time goes. and i look around, and it truly seems like i've accomplished nothing. blogging is one of those things that i love doing, but often do when i'm trying to put off working. and i haven't been working, so why haven't i been blogging? i've had things to blog about...for instance here is an entry i planned on saturday but was so busy sitting on the couch watching horrible TLC shows that i really didn't want to watch, that i didn't have time to blog about it...

so last week i spent a day celebrating the big 2-5 with a trip to the rooftop swimming pool of the radisson hotel downtown, salsa dancing at the adler planetarium, and a fancy dinner. then, the birthday celebrations were put on hold while i sucked myself out of the world around me and had no human contact for 48 hours (except for the checkout lady at beadazzled). i watched the miss teen usa pageant (fell asleep, but woke up in time to see miss lousiana won), confessions of a teenage drama queen (quite bad i thought. i was pretty disappointed in lindsay lohan. but it gave me the opportunity to inspect her boobs closely...more on this later) and about 27,119 episodes of trading spaces and while you were out (why isn't there anything on tv when i want to watch!?!?!). and then on sunday andrea came home and my parents came to town to rescue me from these doldrums. we spent my bday down at millenium park (way, way cool) and lounging about the house.
all in all, it's been good. i will be a better blogger soon. but for now, i must go to spend an hour or two with the dad before my mom and i take him to o'hare.
