Birthday Weekend...

Delaware, as Abe Lincoln

Friday was the start of birthday celebrations for Delaware's birthday weekend.

Me, as a Secret Service Agent

Friday night The Crew went to a place called the L-bar, and it was pretty nice.  The venue was classy with lots of seating and a nice dance floor...and the music was a good mix of stuff I would dance to (and did) and stuff I would rather sit to (which I also did.)

Official Secret Service Badge...hehehe

Saturday I had to get up rather early (compared to how late I was out on Friday) for a tutoring session.  After the regular session, I took her to a job fair and helped her to apply for a job... (Which is kinda ironic, as I'm still looking for work...but come March I will be working.). Anyways, it was nice to help her and I am looking forward to a good report on Tuesday.

Mariachi Band at Casa Sanchez

Saturday night was the surprise party for Delaware at a Mexican restaurant called Casa Sanchez...and it was SO MUCH FUN!!!

Now I'm always one for surprises, so jumping out from the booth and putting trick candles on her giant cupcake was good fun...but the fact that we dressed like presidents and there was a mariachi band was just icing on the cake.   I actually dressed like a secret agent instead of a president, because...well, why not?  I will say, I was best dressed...and the mariachi band was phenomenal.  Can't wait to go again.

After dinner, everyone was supposed to go on a 'bar crawl' where you start at one bar and keep on going till you reach the last one. I opted out of this portion of the night, as I don't think drinking all night is fun, its not in the budget, and I was feeling a bit under the weather as it was.

As it turns out, Delaware was a bit pooped from the weekend's festivities and they called it a night after just one bar visit...so I didn't miss much.

Sunday morning I went to a meet up at the horse barn, where we focused on round pen work and lunging.  It was fun, and informative, and I even got some props from the trainer who said I looked like I knew what I was doing.

I wasn't feeling that well, so when I got home, I showered and basically crashed after taking some meds.

Today I felt a bit better...throat was feeling better, but a cough was forming as the day went on.

I ended the day with an actual birthday dinner (as today was Delaware(s actual birthday) at The Cheesecake Factory with just she and I...and it was good laughs and good fellowship.

Besides being sick...again...it was a good weekend.
