Happy Birthday Papa and Sissy!!!

Dinner is supposed to be at the Muck tonight with the family so....

BREAKFAST: Premier Protein Shake and a Banana
Water
LUNCH: Cilantro lime shrimp and a Talking Rain Water
LATE AFTERNOON SNACK (4:30ish) - 1 Laughing Cow Wedge and Crackers

There's still a lot of traffice 405S at 5:30-6PM so I meet up with MT and we finish off a bottle of TJ's White Lambrusco. Which BTW....LOVE IT! Best $4.99 I've spent! There's a red too..which I'm sure we will crack open tomorrow =)

I finally leave work around 7:45 and head to Muck.

I find my dad...and he's on a roll at the slots! My mom... geezus I can't find her anywhere. Butapparently she was "hot" too cuz she found us and had lotsa 20s to show off! "Look at my winnings!" LoL Oh mommy.......

We wait for my brother and his wifey to arrive for dinner, so they continue playing. I watch. I like keeping my monies. I'd rather buy something than gamble. Me and gambling do not mix.

Mun and Jenny arrive close to 9PM. I am STARVING at this point since the last time I ate lunch was around 1:30PM. We head over to eat at 8-Asian. I order:

Agedashi Tofu / Auburn Roll (to share of course) / and Salt & Pepper Squid (to share as well). Oh and can't forget my small Sake!!! Yes, I drank alone. No one cared for Sake. Parents and Mun ordered a bunch of other stuff too, mostly meat dishes so....

I didn't touch those. BUT...I did have some chow mein (I just didn't take the meat). Fave Chinese food? Chow Mein Hong Kong Style. I don't care for any meat or seafood with....I just want the noodles =)
Food was great! Dinner was fun. Good times with the familia. Oh...and the waitress brought out a Green Tea Cake for my dad...also...BOMB.COM!!!

The parents go off to gamble some more. Me, Mun, and Jenny stay at the restaurant and chat more. We must have been on a good one cuz before we knew it...it was midnight!

We go to look for my parents. Find Papa. Of course...no Mom! =P Mun gambles some more... my dad more...FINALLY find my mom... of course she's not budging.

I think we finally leave the casino past 12:30...almost 1am? And the parents were still playing = Goodness.

Today was a good day with my family =) I head to Kirkland's waterfront to just be alone with my thoughts. Reflect on tonight. My family. Seeing how we are together. How my parents are still married after almost 40 yrs. Seeing my brother and his wife and how they are together. As dysfunctional as we can be... we can still manage to come together with love. This just gets me thinking more about my life and where I'm going.....or not going.

Cuz I don't think about it enough already =

Oh panunuts.....
