A Fine Day
I had a great day on Friday.
To start with, Katy made me waffles and bacon for breakfast. Mmmm, bacon. I got in to work a little later than usual, which was also nice.
A big group of us went to lunch at Tony Roma’s – Mmmm, ribs. Who doesn’t love the pork products?
After lunch some of us ended up in a used book store that was going out of business. I found a first-edition hardback of Frank Herbert’s “The White Plague,” which I snapped up. Thanks to the going-out-of-business sale and a cashier who was suffering from “too cool for this job” syndrome, it was marked down from $35.00 to $1.75. Woo Hoo!
I left work a little early because we were having some people over for dinner. It was a little hectic – the kid/adult ratio was a little unfriendly - but Katy served a delicious Greek kebab thingy, giving me the rare and coveted Pork Trifecta.
And what did we have for dessert? Why, chocolate cake with chocolate frosting, of course – It was my birthday, don’tcha know?

Ah yes.. I remember your birthday being a week before mine... Hope you've had a great 36 years... and may you have many more!
Oh, have you read The White Plague before? Let me know what you think of it when you finish it...
