Things To Do In San Diego: September 30-October 3, 2013

It was an incredible birthday weekend. Thanks to everyone for the sweet messages on Facebook, Twitter and in person. Friday was a pretty mellow night. I found myself laughing that at 9pm I was at Vons taking care of grocery shopping instead of out raging. Darren and I did make it down to the Casbah for Islands, but we left at the stroke of midnight to get all those blog posts up and prepare for Saturday. We had to get up super early for our Qualcomm Stadium training and alcohol serving certification. We finished by noon, lazed around, had lunch at Sicilian Thing, got beers at Belching Beaver, rode bikes to Tour de Fat in time to see He's My Brother, She's My Sister, rode to Thorn Street for more beer and the Devilicious Food Truck, rode to Adams Avenue Street Fair to hang out with my mom, sisters, and nieces, napped, then went to Casbah for Unknown Mortal Orchestra. The whole day was awesome, but we still kept it relatively calm as we were up early to have breakfast/shower/etc. and ride bikes to the new Qualcomm jobs. We beertended adjacent carts from 9am-5pm and it turns out it's a pretty fun job to make some extra cash on weekends except my wrist is in serious pain. From there, we biked to the 6, bused to dinner at Riki Sushi, biked to Belching Beaver, refilled the growler and hung out at home as Darren serenaded me on guitar before biking off to Bar Pink and The Void for a little bit. Our celebration isn't over, however, as we'll be taking a one-night staycation at the Hard Rock Hotel in a couple days. If anyone had told me in my twenties that my thirties would be SO.MUCH.BETTER. I could've saved myself a lot of headache and heartache. Lots of good stuff this week...Monday through Thursday archives after the jump.
