At my age they don't mean so much.
carpe_noctum_93 wanted to do something nice for me, so she made me breakfast in bed; it was VERY decadent. Bacon waffles and the whole newspaper all to myself.
After that, very little.
gmcdavid and I had business at the local bank, so we went over there; we had hoped to do a little shopping after, but a) the store didn't have what the Girl wanted and b) the bank had taken unconscionably long, so we just went home. I finished two loaves of bread. We had pizza and Indiana Jones for supper.
I had about two dozen birthday wishes on Facebook; I don't have thousands of friends, but I know them all to talk to.
It was a good day. Cheers!
