older and wiser

So far, my birthday has involved sleeping in, sipping a mimosa, and waiting for Jed to finish the onion and new potato frittata. Mmm. A very nice contrast to the bleak and almost non-existent birthday acknowledgment at work yesterday. Blech. Whatever... I'm letting it go...

Today, we're planning a bit of cross country skiing if this cold snap breaks. It's supposed to get "up to" 24 degrees today, with a dusting of snow. Sounds perfect to me... but we're barely cracking 10 right now.

Then, on to dinner and a surprise location. And presents! EE!

And WHATTHEHECK, Jed gets work off on Monday, and I didn't even think to take it off. I feel like I was not at work for a few weeks a few weeks ago, and I hate to waste vacation too early. And, I'm thinking about getting up the courage to ask for 2 straight weeks off work so we can venture back to France in the summer and have 16 total days of BLISS... Except, eeks... I don't know how that'll go over... I already feel uneasy about the request... but I guess it doesn't hurt to ask. Except sometimes it does when people read into it and your commitment and... Whatever. Again, putting that away for now.
