Ray’s Birthday:

Her actual birthday was on Friday. Lee worked until after bedtime.

We were going to go to the Boo at the Zoo, at the Cheyenne Moutain Zoo, last night but:

• I dropped the e’fant head back at the house on the way out the door.
  

• Military types turned us back at the pass.
  

• By the time we reached the shuttle bus, it was 7:30 (and the event finishes up at 8:30).
  

• We arrived at the Sears parking lot at the Boadmoor Town Centre, only to find a line of hundreds of people waiting for the frikkin’ shuttle bus. Hundreds.
  

Crap, man.

I still have the tickets, and I’m going to try taking Ray again later, but trying to get everyone in and out and up and down in under an hour wasn’t going to happen.

Today we’re having cake and little squealing girls with party noisemakers.

That’s the good news. The bad news, well, will be left for another day.
