March
March is a busy month around here – my birthday, The Mom’s birthday, Paulie’s birthday, Ben’s and my anniversary, SXSW, baseball, and on it goes. So, Ben and I decided to get away early since we won’t see much of each other the rest of this month. We spent the weekend in San Antonio and thoroughly enjoyed it. We relaxed. And walked on the Riverwalk early in the morning. And relaxed. Got massages. Ate sushi. Saw “Harry Potter” at the IMAX. We stayed at the Historic Menger Hotel, built in 1869. It’s right next to the Alamo, which was really interesting this weekend as Texas Independence Day was celebrated. (All 4 days of independence….)
And I had very nice birthday celebrations this year… Mike, Brenda, and Pat called. Kathy in California sent a beautiful card. Kathy in New Mexico sent her once per year email. And Kathee a/k/a The Mom called, too! Got "e" cards from Tante Lula and Wanda... A nice text message from the Mouse... And of course my family called. (My brother’s message at 7ish am on Saturday “Wake up! Old people get up early.” Click. Nice, huh?) The girls at the office gave me a gift certificate for the spa in the hotel where we stayed.. Paulie and Malier sent a really funny card & pretty bracelet. They will be heading to see the Queen soon – so I requested something cheesey from Harrod’s, preferably about Princess Diana. (Or some combination of that) And then the Cherry on top – had sushi and wine last night with my homies at Sushi Sake. (and received some coffee treats!) Taints ladeez!
Tonight I have to drive to Houston for a 2 day conference, which I hate. I don’t mind the information, I hate having to go down there for it. Not a fan of Houston. At all.
