Plans for the week were disrupted. I still took a vacation day today. Day drinking of some nice cocktails (gray whale aviation; frozen painkiller) has led to some day drunkenness. Nap time before going out to celebrate my dad’s 80th birthday.
@devBear Was his birthday the 28th? I hope the celebration was wonderful.
@LilPecan yes my dad turned 80 on the 28th. Was a nice dinner with friends. Original plan for pig roast back in WI cancelled due to family getting covid
@devBear Glad it was a nice dinner and celebration of his life. I can attest the 28th is a good day to be born.
@LilPecan Wait was it your birthday too?
@devBear Maybe. But I was hatched. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
@LilPecan Guinea pigs, as far I as understand, are still born, not hatched. Happy belated to you.
@devBear I was hatched before becoming a guinea pig.
Thank you.
@LilPecan I got him a nice bottle of cognac (Hine Antique).
@devBear Nice! Worthy of the birthday and perfect for someone who has already accumulated all the things by living 80 years.
@LilPecan I’m sure he would have preferred a Louis XIII but my wallet would not accommodate
@devBear No one can convince me any alcohol s worth that kind of money.
@LilPecan Agreed. He bought one years and years ago at a duty free and has since consumed it in much joy with friends which is why I know he would have liked another but the price has commensurately increased over the years as well.
@devBear If you open a savings account now and keep depositing to it at regular intervals you can afford it painlessly for his 85th birthday.
@LilPecan If I invest the time now I will be ready with having edited and printed the Storyworth stories I have collected from him a few years back that I have never actually finished and readied into book form by the time he is 85.
