CELEBRATE

Happy Anniversary!

We finally went to Paulo's Restaurant! I walk past this restaurant everyday when I go to and from work. It always smells SO delicious. We have been saving this restaurant for our anniversary. So... here we are... finally! The waiter let me pick where we wanted to sit so... I thought this cute table by the fountain was a good idea... more on that later...

This is my handsome husband. How could I not fall in love with this face?

THE CULPRIT

You know how I said the waiter let me pick our own table. Well, it looks like I chose to sit right under a bird. Go figure. The bird thought to relieve himself right on top of my head and arm during the first three minutes of me sitting on my chair. I immediately went into the restroom and cleaned up. I then returned to my chair to enjoy a beautiful meal. I sat back down in my chair because I figured a two-for-one deal wasn't in my future. I was wrong. I guess I was roaming this bird's territory because he did it again! It plopped down right there on my shirt. How rude! (Oh, I have realized that I have been wearing this same shirt in almost every post lately. I would lie and say it is a coincidence, but I really do wear it a lot. It's one of the five shirts I actually have out here in Virginia... and HE had to poop on it!) The sad thing about this whole adventure is the fact that I had to go straight to work after this... for 8 hours! So I had a bird poop stained shirt all day. Gross, I know.

Our waitress happened to be from Russia and when she saw what happened she was so happy! She told me that in Russian Culture when a bird poops on you in means you are a happy person. Makay had told me this earlier, but I thought he was just trying to make me feel better. Next time I'd rather not have the birds two cents on my happiness...
