I was tickled and thrilled by all my various e-cards and livejournal messages and e-mails and phone calls and in-person birthday wishes yesterday. I even got my annual birthday phone call from one of my oldest friends who lives in Louisville AND one from my father.

Dinner at Ringo was delicious and full and tasty and afterwards we had a little trouble finding a place to just get a drink, but settled on Berlin which worked well for me since it wasn't too crowded and they had music so I could dance for at least a few songs. Including this strange cover of Nelly's Hot in Herre done by puppets.

Most folks left relatively early, in part because we would all be meeting again tonight at Circuit for a longer night of performing and dancing. I personally was looking forward to going home to bed and ended up capping off my birthday day by dissolving into my beautiful lover and drifting off into a peaceful deep sleep.

This morning, despite my ranting in other areas and things in my life still feeling on the verge, I'm feeling full of gratitude.
