I'd wanted a 3-day leisurely weekend, punctuated with good food along the way. For a while, everything seemed to be going my way. We went to the mall, had frozen custard ( Mango Dango!) and finished off the day with a Memphis BBQ dinner.






The dinner turned out to be a bad bad move!
At 3.30am, Yifan gave me a scare. He suddenly felt sick, and woke up to puke and had the runs. Damn those ribs! I was so worried I only managed to get back to sleep 2 hours later.
Needless to say, the mood on my birthday suffered a little. Thank goodness, he only had a mild case of food poisoning, and seemed to be okay after another trip to the bathroom. I, on the other hand, looked like I could do with a couple more hours of sleep. Whether it was by choice or not, we had to take the day easy. Lunch was a simple affair at the local Vietnamese noodle place, and later on we went for a car wash. Not quite your typical birthday celebrations, eh?

Went home, and took my second nap of the day(!) before we met up with Yifan's colleagues and boss for a buffet dinner in Addison.
And that was how my birthday went in a nutshell.
