I didn’t do the usual massive shopping trip. I only bought the things I needed for tonight. I’ll go back tomorrow. The store was a MADHOUSE! The craziest I have seen it in a while. It’s usually not that packed on Wednesdays. Oh well. I didn’t have the energy to deal with a whole cart of groceries today anyway.

Tonight we shall be dining on a birthday feast of grand proportions! I splurged on some t-bone steaks and extra jumbo shrimp. With that there will be twice-baked potatoes, a garden salad, and Oreo cake. I also found the perfect birthday card.

Now I need to do the dishes and clean up the kitchen so I can make a righteous mess of it for dinner. Hopefully I will have enough time to take a shower and make myself all pretty too.

And no, I will not tell you how old Lin is today. If I did, he’d lock me in The Box Room and feed me slices of bologna under the door for the rest of my life. Let’s just say he’s older than I am and leave it at that, shall we?
