23

It was my birthday yesterday, and Josh and I did a lot of things that made me feel like we were living the high life. First, he gave me an ipod nano that he won from the Apple store and an itunes gift card to help fill it up :) It's so skinny, I'm afraid I might accidentally eat it.

Later, we stopped by the Minnesota History Center with the free ticket passes we got from the library. I wish we could've stayed there longer, though. The exhibits are very intriguing, especially The Minnesota's Greatest Generation section. They had the back end of an real plane in there! And a sweet old 50s car and a ton of old-fashioned t.v.s (which Josh liked the most, of course).

For dinner, we went to this fancy restaurant called Kozlaks. Fantastic tenderloin and cheesecake. And we didn't have to pay for that either, because we had a gift card. Woot!

And to top the evening off, we went to the Minnesota Opera to see Casanova's Homecoming (once again, with free tickets). The show was sung in English, which is not my preference for operas, but it was highly amusing and full of sexual innuendoes. But what can you expect if you're watching something about Casanova?

Needless to say, the 21st of November was a great way to start my 23rd year of existence.

p.s. Please note that not only is this my 23rd birthday, but it's also my 23rd blog. I'm just that coordinated ;)
