cattitude's birthday dinner today, a little early so we could celebrate while my mother is visiting. We had excellent tapas outdoors at Cafe Barcelona on Beacon Street, which has real tables outside (but uncomfortable chairs). Given how pleasant today's weather was and the forecast for the next few days, it looks like celebrating early was the right move since we wanted to eat outdoors. It was 76F/26C when we headed over there at 5:00, and about 68F/20C when we were done. The forecast for tomorrow and the few days after that has highs in the low to mid 50s (10-12 C).
A lot of people had the same idea: when Cattitude called on Thursday for a reservation, they offered 5:30 or 9:30, nothing in between. It was a fine evening to be sitting outside on Beacon Street eating interesting food and talking about life, family stories, and the local turkey population. [That's the actual bird, not an insult to someone non-avian.]
I seem, however, to have overdone things a bit, and I should have taken a naproxen before we left the house, rather than after the walk to the restaurant.
