'Out Of Gas'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Laura, that's a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing it.
Yeah, she looks pretty "feh" in that picture. I think Grace is just nifty. We're working on playing with things at midline (like a ball which she did today) and using her left hand (which she did with her bike bell today). Each day is what it is.
OH! We took my mom to Roy's for her birthday dinner this week. I made reservations on line and indicated that it was her birthday. They gave us a special seat with ribbons around the candle. And they had printed a special insert into the menu that said, "Happy birthday, Marlene." AND they didn't sing.
It was really nice and class and very cool. And we gave her a Wustof Santoku knife.
I would agree to telling a restaurant it was my birthday if they would not sing. Cool indeed.
AND they brought her a grand marnier cake. Which was yum, but not as good as my chocolate souffle.
I'm not surprised that they didn't sing. Too snooty for that.
Mom had sushi that had kobe beef on it (seriously!)
The medical team that performed my procedure sang Happy Birthday to me. They had me face down on the table with an IV in. Nothing I could do but laugh helplessly.
HA, ita. That's actually kind of cute and adorable and odd all at the same time.
I don't have good experiences with my birthday and medical procedures.
I'm on day 4 in a row of yoga. I can't believe how badly out of shape I am.
Oh ita, they should not charge you for a procedure if they are going to torture you at the same time. (but I would have sung to you too)
ita, a few days, a few weeks, a few months. I wish for the interval to be so long you don't remember the last time you were forced to go to the ER. Pain free in 2009.
This. Time a hundred. Laura said it beautifully.
Where is Roy's? And restaurant singing Happy Birthday to anyone over 10 should be outlawed.
Wow Kat, that sounds like a nice way to celebrate her birthday. I've never heard of Roys before but of course you know I googled it.
OH! We took my mom to Roy's for her birthday dinner this week.
Roy's as in Roy Yamaguchi's? We have one out at the beach here and that's where Lewis and I went for our anniversary. It was a really lovely space and dinner was divine, although I have to laugh/cringe at the Florida penchant for going into pretty much any restaurant in shorts and a knit shirt with a collar and calling it dressed up.
