I didn't wake up until about 8:30 and surfed until 10. Then it was pet stuff, breakfast, and more surfing. I set up the camera on a tripod on the back deck and took pictures of us. We don't really have any good pictures and I wanted some of the day I'm officially old - 65. The thing is, I feel old now. Aches and pains, not nearly as strong as I once was, really thin hair, and an old man looks out at me every morning in the mirror. And it's only going to get worse. It's better than the alternative - at least for now.
About 12:30 we left for Opal Devine's for lunch. Ellen had a $10 off birthday coupon. Traffic was really nice. The jam started just after the exit we got off on. Lucy had a 1/3 lb hamburger, I had a pulled pork sandwich, and Ellen had a salad. Unfortunately her asshole started to give her trouble just after we ordered. It was quite awhile before she got a chance to eat her lunch. We ordered a piece of cake for dessert and shared it. Happy birthday.
After that we stopped at the post office, ran the dog at the soccer field (22 LONG retrieves), and then gassed up. We still had about 20 minutes to kill before they started doing dogicures at the pet store. So we gave Lucy a bath. The timing was great. We got her done just about in time to get her nails done.
Ellen's asshole was giving her trouble again, so we hurried home. The rest of the afternoon was surfing. I didn't exercise in honor of my birthday. I did take the dog to the mailbox. I'd planned on going to Longhorn for dinner, but Ellen's asshole nixed that. Instead I had leftovers.
The evening was reading and surfing. Ellen watched fantasy TV shows.
