The Birthday Week

So I was a little spoiled this year for my birthday, as it was more like a birthday week. I had the priviledge of having all my friends meet Melissa and I in Wrigleyville at The Irish Oak for a fun get together. The Cubs clinched their division that night so the streets were filled with crazed fans (who are most likely depressed now after being swept by Arizona), but for the moment, well, they were typical Cubs fans.

But the weekend before I had the blessing of being with my brothers in Seattle as David and I visited Michael. It was a good time and Michael threw a birthday bash with his Mars Hill students. It was so much fun to be with the bros, and also so neat to experience a little taste of Michael's world on the west coast. It was also funny to see people's faces when I was introduced to them - I had somewhat forgotten what it was like to be a twin. So many, "Wait, no way, oh, that's crazy, I feel like I'm talking to Michael but it's not him." We also had fun at a number of different Seattle coffee shops - Zocas is the place to be, and we also found some nice scenic views of the city.
