My Birthday

My birthday was so-so because I had to work that day and it was freezing out. We ended up going to Red Robin for dinner because it was easy and cheap. When we went there a week ago I had earned a free entree for the next visit plus I still had money on a gift card. I usually get the Banzai burger but had their regular one and it was disappointing in comparison. Lesson learned!

We headed home after dinner and I opened my presents:

I was lamenting around Christmas how I wish I had a female friend to put together a bag of girlie stuff for me which is why Joe bought me all the personal care items pictured above. Unfortunately, I had a bad experience with a neutrogena cleanser awhile back (it made me break out), so I was nervous about keeping that. I also have more moisturizer than I need right now, and the nail polish was a color I already owned. So I did end up taking some of the stuff back to Ulta. Luckily it didn’t hurt Joe’s feelings since I appreciate the thought (plus I kept the lip gloss which I love). I didn’t even feel tempted to buy something with the credit.
