On a lighter note....thanks to all who sent me birthday wishes. It was a great birthday...I hit $600 on the slots, saw the movie Ted....which was raunchy, sweet, and hilarious....had a fabulous dinner at a steakhouse. So your birthday wishes for me paid off. The only thing which was strange was no fireworks....that has always been a part of my birthday. And since the whole country participates, it just did not feel quite right. They said they cancelled the fireworks because of the dry weather....but I have a feeling that they think I am just too old to matter now....you know how this country dotes on its young people. If it is an age thing, we probably will never have fireworks on the 4th again.
And a special hug and thanks to Starry for the birthday thread.....loved, loved, loved it.
