I am having a good birthday so far.

I woke up to a nice backrub. While I was taking a shower Sheri brought up a couple pieces of pizza to hold me, some fresh coffee, and all of my birthday gifts to open. I got lots of good stuff. I am going to fly a kite later today and read up on geography.

We are getting ready to go out for brunch. I want to try the crab cakes at a nearby southern restaurant we tried once before and liked.

For dinner I want cheeseburgers on the grill and Sheri is going to make cup cakes for me. If they have artichokes in the store I want a couple of those as well.

We didn't watch Brokeback Mountain last night so we may watch that, or go to the video store if I feel like something a little more action-packed. We'll see how I feel later in the day.

We also have to get the emissions on the van tested. I may do that today just to get it out of the way.
