I turned 26 years old on July 30th. My parents took me out to dinner on the day of, as I already mentioned. Troy and I didn't do much for it on the day of my birthday, but that weekend we went to see a movie with some free passes I won. We saw Public Enemies, starring Johnny Depp and Christian Bale. It was entertaining, but I can't say I was blown away by the story.

Troy gave me a Mariners shirt and an N64 game, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, which I've been playing a lot. I also got a Beatles shirt from Troy's parents.

Then this past Friday night, we finally went out to eat for my birthday at our favorite Thai restaurant, Djan's Thai Restaurant in Wallingford. I had the Pad See Eiw and Troy got the Green Curry. Troy said he wanted a spiciness of 2 on a scale of 1-5 and it tasted more like a 3 or 4. I don't know how he ate it all. I might try one of the curries next time we go.

For dessert we had ice cream at a local place called Molly Moon's, half a mile from Djan's. I got a scoop of honey lavender in a waffle cone and Troy got a scoop of balsamic strawberry, also in a waffle cone. We thought it was ok, but we might like other flavors better.
