Birfday!

It was a glorious day weather-wise, warm (83!), sunny, pleasantly breezy, with lots and lots of butterflies on the wing. My parents and I were in one of my favorite historical towns, got to see some sights and learn a few things I hadn't known before. I got a lovely piece of art and three very cool *and* useful books as gifts. And--highly appropriate for a hobbit fan who's turning 33--the Jägerschnitzel I ordered for lunch came out COVERED, as in nearly buried, in thick-sliced mushrooms. :D
It wasn't a perfect day in all respects; last night's SPN really was *not* what I wanted for my birthday; and the weather's about to scupper our plans for the weekend (so we're going to a quieter, indoor Plan B)... but y'know what? It's been a happy day anyway. :)
