As expected, Mokroopal dinner was uber-awesome. Twas so great to chillax and have some laughs. We went to Cheesecake Factory for dinner (it's starting to become a tradition for me, I can never think of anywhere else to go) and whilst the food was verra good, I got full right after half a bowl of soup and had to call it quits there! I'm not even Boston yet, but already I am reverting to the eating habits that I carry on over there.
The Mokroopals are so sweet. They're the only people who still get me gifts (although, the Girls did buy my Thanksgiving plane ticket home as a BDay gift =). They really didn't have to and I always feel like I don't deserve it!!! The presents were terrific, as only Mokroopals gifts can be. Kressler got me a verra cute I Heart CA shirt in pink from Hollister and coasters that say: Sober, Buzzed, Wasted, and Hungover. She also got me another Moo Moo (cow) and a picture board. Her Bday card was, if I could ever scan it or show it, was a perfect depiction and personification of me and now it will get wall status. :)
Lisa also got me a gift from Hollister (a gift card), which led me to believe that she and Kressler went together to get my gift, but hilariously enough, they went separate! She also got me a martini glass, and I didn't figure this part out until later, but she had wrapped my gift card in a paper shaped as a green apple and then put it in the martini glass to depict and apple martini! Inside the pink basket was also another cute shirt from Hollister and a bigger Moo Moo. The cows are comin' home people!
To top off the night, Pat and Albert gave me a giant box. Oh yes, there was a MINI IPOD in there!!!! I CANNOT believe that they would get me a gift like that, something that I totally do not deserve, but I love 'em for it. D00d, my eyes nearly fell out of their eye sockets. It's so pink and pretty... LOL, kinda like me.
We drew names for Christmas afterwards, the grand Mokroopal Christmas tradition still standing, but we still have to discuss our Christmas plans since I'll be in Mammoth for a week before the holiday.
I had to reluctantly part ways with them afterwards seeing as how the guys were calling me to poker, and also, Kressler and Lisa had a lot of teacher stuff to do. Poker was fun. always nice to see those dumbasses. I think they actually missed me whilst I was gone. I was a totally craptastic poker player last night, getting kicked out after 30 minutes!!! Must've been distracted by other things *cough*... well, I'll be back in less than 3 weeks, and I'll kick their asses then. ;)
