Today is my birthday

... and I stayed up till about 2:30 to see it in (that's around the time I was born).
Ellie called me at 10:30 to sing me the birthday song (not Happy birthday but the other, better one).

I have to get ready for my annual birthday lunch with one friend and then later am going to Brooklyn for a birthday dinner with other friends. And if the weather isn't too awful, we'll go to the beach to see in the new year.

I'm tired already ! Just kidding, but I did just get home from a lovely lunch at a very old deli that's been around since 1929 that Jack Womack took me to. I'd never even know it existed--right across from Tor...I'll be back.

Then shopping at the green market and Whole Foods (the latter a big mistake as it was packed, but I needed rye bread) and then had to stop at the supermarket for necessities. I was carrying so much stuff I couldn't stop at the po.
Oh and I got a mislaid gift from Xmas eve....
Thank you Katya--(if you're reading this)--I'll email you.

That sounds great! I love old traditional delis.
