dinner at the diner with the bfe!

What was the occasion?
Oh, you mean other than we haven't gotten together yet this quarter? 
(smile!)
Well, it IS Jeffvember.
The physicist is gonna be 49 for-the-first time on the 22nd!
Actually, knowing him, that'll be just once.
He IS a physicist, after all, and knows the dimension of time only goes forward for those of us on this planet.
(smile!)
 
It was his idea to go to The Diner on Abercorn.
Neither of us have been to it since the pandemic began, so that's been a very hot minute, right?
Right.
So, for something different, that's where we went!
He's got a great big club sandwich that looks quite toothsome.
It must have been, too, as he ate every bite of it, and all the fries.
I ate every bite of my Monte Cristo, too!
I haven't had one of those since the Bennigan's closed, many years ago.
And the J-Dawg said Bennigan's is where he had his last bite of that sandwich, too!
N-i-i-i-ice!
(smile!)
As for his birthday present... tah dah!!!
This was his primary gift!
I didn't tell him, but I'm counting this as bday49 and Christmas, all in one.
(smile!)
Such a gorgeous black cat, with its filigree markings -
it looks like something from the Art Deco period!
That's exactly his cup of tea... purr-fect!
And see that crystal butterfly on the metal cat's paw?
Well, it's supposed to glow when the solar battery is charged up!
I meant to get it out of the box a few days ago, so I could set it in the sun and see the action...
but I forgot.
I'm sure he'll take a photo and send it to me.
He was utterly delighted with it!
(smile!)
He also liked the other two gifts and the "trash panda" card!
Oh... the waitress had a raccoon tattoo on her right arm!
Right place, right time!!!
Alrighty then!
(smile!)
And what did we have here?
Balloon people in naughty poses - ooh la la! - for his grown self...
and a stand-up cat for his artistic self to paint howsoever he wishes!
Now, off to see "The Estate" for some laughs together!
