Thank you all very much ... et merci beaucoup, Mlle. Taken!
\I will spend most of the day with my daughter and my lady friend, going to dinner and to a folk concert tonight (Patty Larkin).
It's so strange how time passes. When I woke up this morning to the sweet sound of my gf singing "Happy Birthday" and realized that I'm 48, I laughed and thought, "Gee - my father's supposed to be 48, not me!"
Anyhow, life is good. And thanks for the sweet thoughts.
It was a very fine birthday, less some annoying interference from the was-wife.
My daughter, lady-friend and I had dinner at a fondue restauraunt. Hadn't had fondue since the good 'ol '70s. We had a dark chocolate fondue that was pure dark chocolate. We dipped cheesecake, strawberries, pineapple, brownies, marshmallows, bananas, etc. Eating them was almost (though not quite) as good as sex.
It sounds like you had a glorious day. Isn't it wonderful when your special day is most perfect? I'm so very happy for you.
Speaking about fondue..... As I was walking through several department stores yesterday, I noticed they were all showing fondue sets. That really took me back several years to some very fun and happy times. The fondue you had sounds quite delicious - glad you enjoyed it.
