Happy Birthday, David!
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Happy Birthday, David!
Thanks, sj!
It was an excellent birthday, though deficient in cake. I'm making up for it by having banana bread for breakfast.
I made some chili, and Matilda and Emmett came over and we watched Rushmore together. A first time for Matilda, and Emmett hasn't seen it since he was 15. Though I've seen it many times, I haven't seen it in probably a decade but I still love it as much as I did on my first viewing. Went over very well with the kids.
That concluded my busy weekend, which began on Thursday, when my friend Jes did her drag show at the bookstore, then Friday my friend Rowan's bday party at Alembic. Both of which were super fab and fun.
Normally I'd be off to Pilates at 9am on Monday morning but my school is closed for summer break, and also my therapist is on vacation so my Monday is completely open. Am I taking advantage of this schedule to get my oil changed and my car smog checked? No. Not as yet anyway.
I'm in the window seat quaffing coffee and about to rouse Matilda from her bed.
