Quarantine Life: Day 39, Birthday Weekend Kickoff
My birthday isn’t until Sunday, but my friends surprised me with an early celebration. They coordinated with Grant to send me takeout from one of my favorite local restaurants, Andaman Thai. They sent me beef pad Thai, tamarind prawns, chicken yellow curry, Thai barbecue chicken and coconut rice. What a feast! Enough food to last for a couple of days. I know it’s more than just because I haven’t had spicy food, real curry or rice in a while…it was amazing! My friends also sent me a quart of my favorite kind of ice cream: chocolate peanut butter cup from Cold Stone. They are very good friends, indeed. We also spent a couple of hours video chatting and playing a virtual version of a game similar to Cards Against Humanity. I’m very lucky to have friends like these.
