The Checkered Camel Company

   Friday, April 23, 2004  
Through the course of this afternoon, I spent my birthday money. I will list the purchases below:
a (nice) Cardinals baseball hat
a White Castle t-shirt
a toothbrush holder
a cotton ball holder
two tickets to a Cardinals vs. Astros game the first week of June

Aunt Laura and Uncle Nick took me out for dinner to an Italian restaurant in the old Sicilian section of St. Louis (the area is referred to as "The Hill"). I consumed veal parmisiano, because baby cow meat is the best kind there is. We then ate sundaes at Ted Drewe's Frozen Custard, which is another St. Louis-exclusive business. Additionally, Nick and Laura gave me a bookstore gift card.

Overall, it was one of my better birthdays- no obnoxious siblings to contend with.
