39 Forever (Day 3600 - 10/3/19)

Previous Vlog (Day 3599) | Next Vlog (Day 3601)

Stephen starts the vlog by handing Roland a bottle of mustard. Stephen and Mallory are currently having Lunch Bunch with Austin, Nikki, Roland, Dan and Lindsey at Mission BBQ. Stephen says that he has been criticized lately for not filming the part of Lunch Bunch where they are actually eating. Nikki says that all the viewers want to know what they're eating. Stephen says that he interestingly chose a place where they all are eating basically the same thing, so there's no much to show. They aren't all eating the exact same thing, but there's a lot of people who are having pulled pork. Nikki, Mal, Austin, and Dan then interrupt Stephen to tell him that they got chicken and not pork. Nikki and Mal both agree that the pulled chicken is so much better. Stephen then realizes that only 3 out 7 of them have pulled pork so they are actually the in the minority.

Stephen then talks about how Mal got a glasses frame home try-on box from Warby Parker. She can test the frames out for 5 days, so she decided to wear them to Lunch Bunch to see what everyone thought. Stephen says that the frame that Mal is currently wearing looks familiar since Hayley has that exact pair. He tells her that she can be Hayley's twin if she decides to choose those frames. Stephen says that Mal decided to try frames from Warby Parker since getting glasses from Costco didn't work out.

After lunch, they both stop by PetSmart to get new ceramic pink cat bowl since Stephen had broken one out of the 4 bowls a few days ago. He says that he needs to be careful not to break anymore of those bowls. Mal asks him whether they should get 2 extra bowls just in case he breaks anymore bowls. Stephen refuses and says that they don't need 5 bowls since they already have 4 bowls. He says that having 2 pairs of bowls makes their lives easier since they can alternate between them.

Later, they are at Stephen's parents' house where Debra tells Stephen that her birthday wish is for him to get a haircut. At first, Stephen doesn't believe that his hair is that long. But, after gathering all his hair together, he agrees with his mom. He then wishes Debra a Happy 29th birthday. Stephen then asks her if she's still "29 forever". Debra says that since she's gotten a decade older, she has now changed it to "39 forever". Stephen tells her that they aren't sure where to go out to eat for her birthday. They just both assumed she would come up with an idea of what to eat since it's her birthday. But, they knew that it was a possiblility she might say that anywhere was fine.

Stephen finally got Debra to name a restaurant she wanted to go, so they are at El Cerro Mexican Bar & Grill. He says that getting his mom to pick a restaurant is very difficult. Debra ordered enchiladas, Mal got fajitas, and Stephen and Steve ordered the same dish. Stephen says that he has never ordered this dish before when he's gone to this restaurant with Steve. But, it's actually his favorite meal as well as Steve's favorite meal. At the end of their meal, the waiters at the restaurant gave Debra a sombrero and an ice cream sundae in a nacho bowl. They then started singing Happy Birthday to her. Stephen tells her that she looks really good in a sombrero. Debra says that she isn't sure where she's going to keep the sombrero.

Later, they are back at Stephen's parents' house and Stephen says hello to Rocko. Debra says that she had a good birthday. Steve is not completely better, but most of his pneumonia is gone. Stephen tells Debra that he will be back soon to get a haircut. He says that he rarely lets his hair get this long, but he has been too busy to get a haircut.

Back at home, Stephen talks about how it's nice getting to spend time with his parents. He enjoys seeing them, hanging out with them, and chatting with them. Stephen says that after dinner they sat and chatted for a few hours. Stephen has been juggling a lot of work lately, so being able to just stop working and spend time with his parents helped lower his stress. He says that even though today was his mom's day, he got as much out of it as she did. Stephen also comments that it was fascinating seeing is mom in a sombrero for the first time.

Stephen then turns the camera around to show both cats asleep on a chair. He says that they don't look like cats that are ready to get their last meal of the day. He says that the cats have been hanging out with him while he got some work done. Stephen is going to bed a little later than he wanted to, but he says that he can just sleep in a little tomorrow since it's a Friday. Stephen then talks about how tomorrow night is their 3rd The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening stream. He's really looking forward to it since he's been enjoying the game and the format their using to play the game on 2 different consoles.
