The day after...

Thank you everyone for the b-day wishes yesterday! They were very much appreciated!

Had a good day:
Took the day off from work because I see no need to ever work on my birthday when I have the time off to spare. *g* I wrote a bit, had lunch with my mother, and then wrote some more and managed to finish a draft of my OMFG HUGE fic for camelot_fleet's Finish-a-thon.

We then went out to dinner at a local place called Merlin's Rest: pretty decent food and a "hot chocolate" drink made from Cadbury's chocolate, Baliey's, amaretto, and I think one other thing that might have been Stoli. Eldest had the burger they call Excalibur (because, really, if you're going to go with a theme you might as well run with it), and finished all but a few crisps and then went on to eat the veggies on my plate too. Good times. Went home to have the traditional yellow cake with chocolate frosting and watch part of the LA/Seattle game, and then crashed like a crashing thing.

Today is back to work, alas, and I think there may be a meeting or two involved, I honestly do not remember. Ah well, it was good while it lasted.
