Aw, thanks guys! I appreciate all the well wishes, but it's especially nice to see a couple of you come out of hiding to say hi. Smudge, thank you for that lovely gift of a wonderful memory. (And don't lump yourself with me when it comes to knees. Me thinks yours are far more solid than mine.)
Yes, there was cake, but the wine will have to wait until the weekend, as will most of the other festivities. As a child, it was a drag to have a birthday that always fell in the first week of school. Then I had to become a stoopid teacher and perpetuate the dragginess.
But you kind folks certainly brightened up my hectic day this time around. Thank you.
In Dallas, the only game that really mattered was in the word gamelan.
