So I was reading a depressing post on reddit about people crappy birthdays… but you know what I can’t really remember ever having a crappy birthday so I decided to just list all of them since I was 18. Honestly I can’t remember prior, but NYE birthdays should always kickass.
18 – So I am pretty sure I spent this one in NYC with my sis but we watched the happenings from Jersey instead of time square, because apparently time square is a pain in the ass. I will make up for this eventually
19 – Ok so I’m pretty sure this one was in MN and took place at an old friend Matt Thielend aunt house. I was but a mere freshman so Alcohol was not really running rampant at this party.
20 – These birthday’s get easier cause I was actually blogging at this point. I spent it at the casino, then went to my friend Daggit’s party, and I believe concluded with going to a 18+ club in Minneapolis with Vince R, Krystal A, and Bri L. It was an odder birthday but hey they happen.
21 – Holy lord this one was epic. Had all I could drink at the wild onion in Minneapolis, then attempted to do a long island ice tea fish bowl with Vince at Sgt Preastons. Blacked out and regained consciences talking to my dad. Schroeder and Tyler drove up for Vince and I birthday bash and it was awesome times
22 – Spent this one in Florence with the girls I had met at the Fashion Institute the previous summer. Saw a lil riot break out do to some poorly aimed fire works. George and Vegas were both there it was so much fun.
23 – Just out of college, went to minneapolis to a party Chris Carson was hosting. Went to Sgt Preastons again first to meet up with Vince and see his new Lady (eventual wife). Watched Katie and Jared get engaged.
24 – Spent this one in a Australian backpacker bar in Saigon belting out classic 80’s rock music to the band while standing on the table drink way to strong Rum and Cokes. Got a bit too drunk almost fell off the back of a vespa and then subsequently drunk dialed my GF at the time Beth about how much I missed her and if it was ok to sleep with the Vietnamese prostitutes. In my def I was kidding about the last part but I don’t think she ever realized I was.
25 – Beth took me on a secret trip to Madison, with a quick stop in Mount Horeb to see the trolls. There Alex’s (Vince GF) had done the same thing and I had one of the best surprise birthday parties in recent memory.
26 – Probably my worst Birthday, Beth had broken up with me the previous month. I decided to drive out to Denver to see my sister who apparently did not want me driving out there for xmas 🙁 Had a fun time in Denver despite the depression, but ended up having Bronchitis and have a mildly sedated birthday night.
27 – Upswing birthday, Tiffany Nickelson had a party at Dublin City in cedar rapids. Had a solid time, made out with a senior from Mount Mercy, who was then quickly taken away. Jesse drove me home and I spent the next hung over day driving to Madison to leave for Costa Rica
28 – Joy just broke up with me like 2 days earlier, but fortunately the douchey way in which she did it… (text message after seeing me 2 hours prior) made me more angry than sad. Adam planned an outting to Piano Lounge where most of my friends showed up. Had a great time got a married girls phone number… seriously if you are married just tell me don’t give me your number and then later let me find out. Pretty standard bday though.
29 — God only knows hopefully NYC but we’ll see 🙂
