with the Family

Too tired/cranky to do anything for my birthday, I opted to order delivery – not even a fancy dish, just a bowl of jjajang myeon, the cheapest thing on the menu.

Staff threw me a surprise party – really surprised, as I hadn’t even realized that it was my birthday.

Over the past few years, my birthday dinners have been increasingly less celebratory, now to the point where it’s even really a thing, which is kinda sad when looking back at some of the great meals that I’ve enjoyed in the past.

I should look to make a comeback next year.
