Ok, I have been so busy lately that I haven’t had any time to sit down and blog! Here is an update of the last few days:

Ellie is fine. She was stung by a bee. I took her to the vet and she is severely allergic to bees. If she had been a small dog, the sting very well could have killed her. Thank goodness for big dogs!

My birthday was a smashing success. We started off Friday night with a little pre-funk action. We had some friends over for food and drinks. I got a little more drunk than I planned, but its my party and I’ll drink if I want to! Then on the actual day, my mom came up to take me to breakfast. My sister and her cute kids dropped by and brought me my gift (thanks guys!). Then Sim, Adam and I all headed downtown to Waterfront Park to watch the Red Bull Flugtag. We met up with my friend, Kristin, from work and hung out until the heat and crowds were no longer bearable. Then we sought out Air Conditioning by catching an afternoon showing of M. Night Shamalan’s The Village. It was not what I expected, but not entirely disappointing. Finally, Simeon took me out to dinner at Romano’s Macaroni Grill. It was a lovely day.

Then to round out the weekend of festivities, my boss and his wife took Simeon and I out for lunch at his golf course country club. We ate out on the terrace and enjoyed the beautiful day. It was all very posh and very fun. Then I spent the rest of the day resting, recovering from all the sun/heat exposure. I don’t know why, but the sun zaps every last ounce of energy out of me.

Oh well, I am now back to work and can only look forward to next year’s birthday….the big 25! Look out!
