More Birthday

~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Just because I can . . .

Hubby's birthday was on the 3rd. He had a meeting that night, as did I. Took a cheesecake to his meeting for them all to share. But, last night we had dinner at our usual Friday night hang out.

After taking our order, the waitress went down to enter it into the computer. I excused myself and went to speak with her and then blatantly lied to my husband about what I had said. ('fessed up later - at the appropriate time) Told him I wanted to make sure she knew I had ordered from the ala carte menu.

Instead, after we had finished eating, and the table had been cleared, she and the manager came back to our table toting the above seen hat and an ice cream sundae with (at that time) a lighted candle. You have not been sung to (badly) until you have had Happy Birthday sung to you in Spanish. Not the HB song we all know, but one from the old country - followed by ours in English.

His candle has been blown out because they discovered they didn't have film in the camera and had to go load it - and, no, I didn't have my digital, drat it. So the pic is a bit grainy and all. But you get the look of resignation on his face, right?

His comment? I don't get even, you know. I get ahead.

'sokay, hubby. My birthday isn't until NEXT year, now. Heh
