Last night, it was a beautiful night in Seattle – sunny and right around 70 degrees, great night for a soccer match. My beloved Sounders where playing the final MLS play-in match for the US Open Cup against a Colorado team they’d played just a few days earlier. I got my boy a ticket to the match because he can’t go to regular season matches with me because I only bought one season ticket. (Next year, I’ll do better) 
After a great night of soccer, including hearing my boy start singing “I’m blind, I’m deaf, I wanna be a ref”, the Sounders pulled off a great 1-0 win and got into the US Open Cup.
Then today happened.
I’m excited for lunch so I can watch my favorite English team, Manchester United whoop up on an overhyped FC Barcelona team. Unfortunately, the Man U that loses matches showed up.
Darn you soccer, one minute, I’m up, the next I’m down.
Such is the life of a soccer fan.

Tonight Cole and Noelle took me out for my birthday dinner at one of my favorite spots Pen Thai. I had the Satay and then Chicken Curry, good stuff. After dinner we headed home and I had my favorite cake, German Chocolate cake. This is my last birthday with one kid, how crazy is that?

Birthday Dinner at Pen Thai

29 candles, going out, that's a lot of heat

So this morning I woke up and found out I’d just turned 29, cool deal. The guys from work, specifically my boss and close friend, took me out for Birthday Breakfast. I order the “Big Mike” because I was pretty hungry. Needless to say, when people warn you that the Brown Bag Cafe has big portions, maybe you should pay attention. I almost ate it all, but then realized I had food up to my esophagus. But, it’s still fun right?

Happy Birthday to me
