One more quick thing . . .

Saturday was my birthday. I worked because I can't afford to give up a Saturday shift. It was ok cause I had drinks with friends on Friday and celebrated with my family Sunday. It was a good shift. I made good money and met some cool people. The girls I work with are dear friends and some other dear friends came in to see me. My friend Nate is an amazing artist with no formal training. He drew this picture for me. I am in love with it because I love the expressions he is able to capture, and also I love when people take the time to make something for me with their hands. He currently waits tables. I constantly tell him he should pursue his talent. I am framing this and hanging it above my bed.
