Happy Birthday to Me! And, Hanson. Drunk.



Well -- today it IS my birthday. So... it should be more fabulous than the rest, right?

I totally scheduled my blog posts for today. I want to SLEEP IN. I want to wake up and enjoy my coffee. Then -- it's time to head to work. I haven't worked on a birthday since I can remember, but since I used my "birthday" day on Monday (which gave me a FABULOUS 3 day weekend) I have to go in today.

Who celebrates on a Wednesday?

No one. Which is why we partied on Sunday!

There was a radio station that was bringing a concert to Ft Myers and I thought it would be a great way to spend the day.


Mat Kearney. He is so, so good.


It was at a baseball stadium!


Parachute was next. I *really* really like them.
Like borderline obsessed.


My MOH drove up from Tampa to come with!

But -- the main reason I was drawn to this concert...

Hanson.
That happened. Hearing "MmmBop" live while drunk is kind of a surreal thing. Something I never thought I would be when that song came out! LOL They played a lot of stuff I remembered -- which is either embarrassing or awesome. I'm not sure.

I've had Hanson songs stuck in my head since Sunday.


Dear Miller Lite, We are breaking up. You make me vom.


Michelle Branch. I drunkenly sang to Goodbye to You. There's video. That's embarrassing.

After the show, we went to one of our favorite places on the water for dinner. And wine.
Who let me order more booze?





And that's all she wrote. According to my husband and my friends... I was passed out by 730pm and they went out to the bar while I slept. Awesome. I woke up and was sleeping in the bathroom.

Happy birthday to me!

Ah mah gahd! Hanson! Mmm Bop is seriously a song that never gets old. I have been known to play it on the jukebox at the bar and proceed to belt it out while everyone looks at me and asks why the hell I played Hanson. :-P I'm not ashamed.

Happy Birthday! It sounds like you had a great time celebrating. ;-)
