Best Birthday Ever

Nick came by a little after noon with two cakes, a card, lovely espresso cups, and good conversation.  Nick cooks.  Nick bakes.  Nick has the right equipment.  Check out these cakes.

Then later in the afternoon, Ms M and Roscoe came by bearing gifts and flowers.  While she was here, Esther, Marsha, Rachel and David came.  At the end of the day there were two Davids in my house.  Both lovely men.  My friend and neighbor supplied and cooked for the party.  And the food was great. There were five dogs visiting my two, so it was a wonderful dog party as well.

I woke late to cold and rain.  I don't remember ever having bad weather for my birthday.  It's one of the nicest things about having an early June birthday.  I began the day cursing the weather until I found my glasses.  Then Nick called and nothing could ruin the day.  It was perfect in every way.

To those of you on twitter and facebook, thank you for the lovely birthday wishes.  I have never had so many people wish me happy birthday.

Wishing you a very Happy 66th! Looks like an auspicious number to me. Apparently you aren't shrinking as much as you thought you were.

Happy 66th! Scrumptious cakes, 2 davids and 5 dogs ... that's a great day ... who cares about a little rain (guess we sent our t-storms up to you, sorry about the timing, but everything looks so nice after a summer rain).

This party just seems to go on and on. But today I'm watching taped episodes of Weeds and eating cereal. I'm still in my winter jammies.

Elizabeth, I'm kind of in love with Nick too. He was my favorite history professor and my favorite matinee movie date. He's a good friend who has seen me make horrible mistake after horrible mistake with the wrong man. We will always be platonic friends, since I do romantic relationships so badly.

Thank you all for the lovely birthday wishes. The party goes on as long as I don't post anything new. So here we are four days later.
