This weekend was a birthday extravaganza.
Saturday was the best day ever. My friends and I went to Spa Castle in Queens. I could go on and on about how awesome it was, but I’ll try to keep it brief. There was a whole floor of saunas, both indoor and outdoor pools with massaging jets, hot tubs, a naked area with herbal pools, and we all got pedicures too! The saunas were my favorite. We were so relaxed I couldn’t really form whole sentences. Wonderful.
Later I met up with Sonya and ate the biggest bowl of mac and cheese I’ve ever seen. Some of it I saved for my Sunday breakfast. Then we went to a Cinco de Mayo/birthday party for all the other May babies.
Sunday I went to yoga, then to a fancy bridal show with MiMi. We got free champagne. I went home and planned to go for a run (since I haven’t actually done that in a while) but instead fell asleep. I promise there will be running this week.
Monday, my actual birthday, I took the day off! I still got up and went to 10am yoga, because in Emily’s class, we always sing Happy Birthday in triangle pose. I don’t really like that pose, but that always makes it more fun. Plus, people in Harlem tend to be artsy and know how to sing, so you always get a four part harmony Happy Birthday. Then I went to accupunture, had some lunch and gelato, then had some birthday drinks at Slane. They made me a birthday shot that tasted like ice cream. Then dinner and drinks with Sonya and Alicia, and home to watch The Muppets with Sonya. It was a lot of fun.
So thanks to everyone who helped celebrate my birthday. It was one of the most relaxing weekends I’ve had in a long time.
