Happy Birthday, Mrs StangDreamin'

Hey......

I'm gonna pester her to check in on StangNet today; so everybody jump in and wish her a Happy Birthday!

I'm not gonna mention which direction my mind headed while watching her climb out of the shower as I was typing this..... Maybe I can talk her into us playing hooky from work today

Well, she hadn't looked at this page yet, so I just read them all to her while she was dressing after her shower. And she says "Thank you all for your wishes."

Andy - you must have been reading my mind on the "cooking dinner" plan! I made an a$$ of myself at work 'til the Boss agreed that yesterday was not gonna be another 11-12 hour day for me. I caught H-E-double hockey-sticks for showing up late to my own birthday dinner last month because I was working late. Wasn't gonna let that happen on her Birthday! I even dropped the a line about "Getting my Life back; even if it requires a new job." and the Boss (who has never married) finally relented. I'll probably pay for it today.

Once I got home, I slow-roasted a corned beef brisket on the barbie (family favorite); did up a "California Mix" of broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini and carrots with some red pepper garnish and cracked peppercorns and some (pre-made Pepperidge Farms) garlic bread. 'Twas good, from all reports; so I guess I pulled it off.
