  1. Silent Bob Another birthday came and went

    Player Chronicle -- Posted on Aug 15 2008

    I celebrated my birthday this year by hosting an all-night lock-in at the game center, so it was more work than celebration. Officially my birthday fell on the 9th, so once the clock rolled over at midnight, most of the kids wished me a happy birthday.

    I know I'm making a little bit of a difference in some of their lives, because I even got some birthday cards! You don't see that very often. Smile

    I slept from about 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and went right back to the center to help out Boobacca.

    My son Brandon made it all the way through! He was excited because he stayed up for 25 hours in a row, the first time he's ever done that. He was actually very easy to wake up once it was time to go back.

    We're going to officially celebrate with family this coming weekend, because three of my nephews were in Las Vegas visiting their grandma and missed it, and my Mom was out of town too trying to pack because she's selling her house.

    We closed the game center Sunday to take a day off and get out of town ourselves. We went to Dubuque and checked out another game center called The Gamer. Brandon played COD4 for awhile before we checked into our hotel. So we just chilled a bit, let Brandon go swimming, and then came back and watched some movies while kicking it in the hot tub. That was the first full day off without working at either of our two businesses I've had in two and a half years.

    As far as candles on the cake, you can't put that many on without the first ones you light melting down to half their height by the time you're done! Very Happy

    Happy late birthday! It sounds like you guys had a great time last weekend - you should try to do it more often. Everyone deserves a break now and then!
