"No Spencer!" Today is my little cousin, Spencer's 14th birthday. YAY!! He will always be the little boy that we used to dress up as a princess but he is just bigger now and probably could take me if we started to dress him up again. Who knows, we should try it!
Today I picked him and his girlfriend up from school like I do every Thursday and I dropped her off. After we were "heading back to the house" I told him that we were going to get Leatherby's since it was his birthday. Because he is just a boy, he got the biggest smile on his face and got excited. There was just one thing that I wasn't expecting him to say.. "I just can't eat that much." Are you kidding me? It was like he was trying to watch his weight or something. I gave him a pretty dirty look (I'm such a nice cousin) and he explained that because he had a wrestling match he couldn't eat that much otherwise he would puke all over the mat.
I laughed and we continued our journey. Some say that because he was the "closest" cousin to me, he and I get along great. I say we get along great because we are very much alike. Like, on the way to Leatherby's we passed by the SMART car dealership. We both thought the same thing at the same time and Spencer said it outloud: "You could totally jack one of those cars with like a big van or something, or just put it in the bed of a truck. Hella easy." Oh gotta love your cousins!
We finally got to Leatherby's and Jill was working! She's one of the nicest people that I know and she was all smiles when we got there. We took our seat and started looking at the menu. We ordered our ice cream and fries (YUMMY!!) and were on our way!! They sang Happy Birthday to Spencer (Jill practically screamed the song.. Which made going to Leatherby's amazing) and embarrassed the crap out of him :).
This is where my laughing attack begins. On the way home from Leatherby's we passed El Camino. He saw someone he knew in the car that JUST passed us and was waiting at the stop light when he screamed! "FLAX!!" The window was completely rolled up and he yelled so loud. I just started cracking up and stared at him "Spencer the window isn't rolled down!" He looked at me with what looked like a very confused face. "I guess I thought about rolling down the window and then realized that it was too late so I just screamed. Wow, I feel so dumb!" I just couldn't stop laughing and of course couldn't stop pointing out how much of an idiot he was for that. As soon as we stopped laughing, he looked at me with a very serious face.. "You BETTER NOT put that in your blog!"
Of course I did! How dare he think I wouldn't. My little cousin will never be free of embarrassment and I will never be free of entertainment. I hope his day was amazing because even though it's not MY birthday, he made my day amazing.
