Happy (end of your) Birthday RiverGirl!

I know I left you a long message with a little bit of song and a little bit of drama, but let me end the evening by saying Happy Birthday to Kimberley on the blog.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KIMBERLEY!

41, it's nuthin.

I realize that it's 4 minutes past my bedtime and tomorrow it will feel like I haven't slept in a week, but this was worth it. Why am I up so late, yet again, on a school night? That Dave E. was in town from Wisconsin, in McMinnville again but wise to stay in Lake Oswego - civilization, if you will. We went to dinner at Manzana's. I ordered steak for the first time IN MY LIFE at a restaurant. It was good. But Barbie says now I'll be having meat dreams tonight. I'm a little bit frightened.

So Happy Birthday to Kim, and Happy Meat Dreams to Joyce. And apparently to Dave.
He had the ribs.
