Birthday Weekend

First off, I have to thank my wife for such a great weekend. Saturday, We got up, had breakfast, which by the way, is there anything better than a good breakfast out on a casual weekend morning? We went to Cup 'n' Saucer on Hawthorne. Their pancakes were the size of a bicycle tire, and going the against the grain, our hipster waiter was attentive and not some elitist 22 year old Lit Major.
After breakfast, we went to Dosha Salon for our couples massage. My 1st professional massage, and with that carried some unease on my part. That was further compounded when they handed me my robe and it was sized to fit a 120 lb. woman. I thought back to Chris Farley..."Fat guy in a comically undersized robe." The massage was 1 hour, and I gained a new found appreciation for masseuses everywhere. My hands cramp even at the thought of massaging something for an hour straight, especially something as muscular as myself. I have always had issues with my shoulder after HS baseball, and she focused on the 'ole wing' and it felt better than it has in some time. Until later that night, when Jenn set up a Bowling party for me. In spite of the threat of ice storm '09 lurking over our heads, there were still a lot of people that showed up. I could not have asked for anything more. Good friends, domestic beer, Bowling, and my pregnant wife...I had one of the better Birthdays ever.
