So, I’m having a birthday/going away party (for myself! at 6 p.m. on Sunday! at La Paz in Green Hills!), and you should have gotten an invitation last Friday. However, I was thinking that I just used my Gmail address book to import contacts into Evite, and what if there is a friend I don’t email! And there are some. There are several lovely ladies from the bistro where I once worked that I would love to invite. Alas, I don’t know their email addresses.

Anyway, all that was to say that if you want to come to my birthday/going away party, and you didn’t get an invitation, email me.

Today Shauna and Miss Pea took me out for lunch. It was such fun. Miss Pea was feeling a little fussy (”Hold me, Mama,” followed immediately by, “Put me in the chair, Mama.”), but she is still SO GOOD compared to most kids her age that I once waited on. Hardly any whining, not a single cry or tear. She just played with the pepper grinder until her “spaketti” was nicely dusted with black specks.

Her mother is fine company as well.

I will miss friendly lunches with my local blogger friends.
