Gee, thanks, you guys.
Not one of my better birthdays. Got up and had to brush an inch or so of cold wet white stuff off the car, then go to work — and of course, got there late because while I'm able to remember from one year to another how to drive in winter conditions, it seems no one else can, so I ended up stuck behind someone who was pussy-footing along at about ten MPH under the posted speed limit .... on a freshly-plowed road.
Then I had an appointment/date to meet a female co-worker whom I wouldn't mind seeing more of at a Mexican restaurant after work for dinner
(Wed is one of her days off, so she wasn't at work today), but ended up with a call that kept me a half-hour past my scheduled quitting time.... so I was running late to meet for the dinner date. But that didn't matter, because just before I got into the car about to break every speed limit between work and the restaurant I checked my phone to find out she'd left a voicemail to say that she was feeling under the weather and had begged off. So I ended up at a pizza buffet here in town where at least they comp you the buffet on your birthday, and then had a couple of adult beverages at a couple of my usual haunts (where the bartenders also comped me my second drink).
And then, once I finally got home, I see here what you-all did. So I guess it turned out OK after all.
At least I've got Thanksgiving off.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?
