34 flavors and then some!

The trouble with having a job is that it's difficult to pay tribute to those you love and adore in an appropriate and timely fashion....yes, I got to sing the birthday song in a whisper at 5am to a half conscious R man on my way out the door, but that's just not the same as getting to sing it at the top of my lungs with little fires and drama and the smell of cake and frosting amongst friends and family...working on birthday days sucks.

Rodolfo's birthday was yesterday...he's now a great big whopping 34!  YAY!
Since work day birthdays aren't half as awesome as weekend birthdays as we all know, this creates the ritual of a week long birthday event!  Usually ending in a great big party come Friday/Saturday with all of the required junk foods, lighting of the waxy things on fire, yelling hoopla and general merriment.

Which means, this tribute to my partner in crime is not belated, merely a part of the week long celebration!  Wahoo!

So, without further ado,

34 R man attributes I adore!
