Echo of Joy

Birthday festivities

Tuesday, November 16, 2010

Last Monday was my friend Clint's birthday. I love when Clint has a birthday. During summer Greek two years ago, when I hardly knew him yet, Clint learned I was 28 and called me ancient, and he has yet to live it down. So every time he has a birthday, I can tell him he's inching closer to being ancient himself. Next year he will turn 28 and will officially cross over into ancient territory.

I was in the Cities already for the fall theological conference, as was my friend Mat, and we happened to have a free evening Monday. So we headed over to Clint's place, where we were joined by some other friends for dinner and games.





We played Mexican Train Dominoes, which I had never played before. It was fun. The best part was Clint and Mat's propensity for angles in their train. Check out the utter mess they made compared to the rest of our neat, normal right angles. Craziness.





Never a dull moment.
