    Part deux: Another Birthday, A New Year


     


    I had a wonderful evening tonight. And I believe I found at least two dessert recipes I need to try out, which were mucho delish!


     


    This afternoon was hectic though. As always, the traffic is crazy around the capitol after three in the afternoon. But I always love it. I love going past that building set atop that huge hill. I love the feel of being where things are going on, masses and masses of people going here and there, historical buildings, tourists. This is heaven. Not as cool as London, but the approximation in form and function gives me a little fix. I have to be in the middle of the stir pot or I just don’t feel relevant. So anyway, I entered the fray as I said around 3 this afternoon, still slightly ahead of my peers in hitting the street. I wanted to get to a flag shop before they closed and I also needed to check out some things for a client and do so many other things before this evening.


     


    Tonight was incredible, as I said. My buddy Nathan (the Ukrainian) and I share the same birthday, which is Monday and the celebration of them was tonight. A birthday always means a new year and a new start and a new list, but especially mine, since it typically falls right in the middle of the beginning of the Jewish New Year. One lady brought this HUGE cake. It is nearly the size of the table it’s on (per the pic you see below).


     



     


    Of course, everyone ate off the side with my name (I guess because I’m sweeter) making only a slight dent in the entire cake, which will no doubt go bad, since it won’t fit in the fridge. Also, one of my most favorite singers and songwriters since childhood was there, it was really cool. I also talked to some friends about going horseback riding sometime soon. Now I am excited.


     


    This evening was absolutely fun-city. Now I’m tired, so I am going to bed. Ciao bellas!


     


     


    OKAY! so sticking to my day job: here's some of what went down today


     


    (we already did this earlier, duh)


     



    ...There's more, but I don't know what Nathan did with the rabbits.

  • Happy birthday!  That's one hell of a cake, too! 

    You're very right about our school's education system.  What scares me is that the people who go through this system are our future leaders.  Yipes.

    Oooo, horseback riding!  *happy sigh*

  • Ooops! Sowry... I just got home... but Happy just barely late Birthday!!!

     :smooch:

  • Sorries on being goners when you celebrated a birthday!  Sounds like it was a delightful one though. :)   If you come through Knoxville anytime soon let me know and we'll go eat a piece of cake somewhere.
