Twenty Eight

The annual, weekend-long (*jazz hands*) Birthday Extravaganza (*more jazz hands*) has officially started, although my b'day isn't really until Monday. Last night my mom treated me to a scrumptious dinner at a local grill. I stuffed my belly silly with spring rolls- made with rice paper filled with vegetables, and Bibb salad with sour cherries,Gorgonzola, and toasted, candied walnuts, drizzled with a cherry vinaigrette (very girly). I polished it all off with a chocolate creme brulee.

It's a beautiful thing, no? Amazon makes it soooooooo (hint, hint) easy to purchase something for your favorite wife/mother/friend/family member/neighbor/drinking buddy on their birthday. If nothing on the list suits you, feel free to drop in for a few glass of our house wine and leftovers ('cause I'm not cooking) with me while I watch "Cops" on Saturday night.

Let's see. March 5th, 1989. I can't remember, as I believe I was shitfaced at the time.

Monty- you don't sound bitter.in.the.least.bit

Thank you

Jock- On 3/5/89, I was receiving a bicycle from my dad, who was congratulating me for making it to the double digits.

28 year old jockstraps? They don;t make elastic like they used to. My socks bite the dust after 28 days.
