Karli's 24th Birthday!

So this was actually not the REAL birthday celebration Karli will remember...or maybe not... This was the party at lunchtime to satisfy the rest of the staff members - they love their cake! But when the dust settled, we found ourselves wandering into a swanky-looking bar down the street from Wal-Mart where we had been buying groceries. Once we established that there was no secret password to the "secret password door", this was when the trouble started...it seemed like a good idea at the time. We took an instant liking to the manager, as she did to us. Her name is Asia and she is from Siberia. We decided to first order a much craved (for Karli) bottle of Guiness - I had one too. Then we decided that since the bar was so fancy and suave, we should really be drinking wine. So we shared a bottle of white wine. It tasted like pure heaven and we were having such a good conversation that one thing led to another and we ordered another bottle...oops! It was a great time, but we sure paid for it when we both had to teach at 8:20 AM. We know you've all been there... All in all a good birthday for Karli - just wish we had the camera with us that night!
