I started the day, my birthday, with a prayer at about 05:30 a.m. and then had breakfast at about 09:15 a.m. It was two types of cereals (Kellogg's Coco Loops & Froot Loops), a kamote (sweet potato), a piece of high-fiber Gardenia whole wheat bread with Philadelphia cream cheese and Chinese red tea with milk (on my big "cat" mug).
After breakfast, I assisted mom in cooking my birthday pasta. It was Japanese spaghetti with squid (with squid ink), button mushrooms, bell peppers, garlic, onions, pork, Filippo Berio extra-virgin olive oil plus McCormick basil , thyme, nutmeg, paprika and pepper.
At this point, the birthday greetings kept on coming - mainly on Facebook, where everybody seems to be. I myself have had my FB account for merely a few days. For so long, I didn't want one but, these days, with my stroke, it is the only way to keep up with people.
I began listening to music before having lunch. There were Joni Mitchell with Song to a Seagull, Lamb with the first disc of Backspace Unwind and The Church with the second disc of Starfish.
I had the squid spaghetti for lunch with a glass of wine. This was the Gray For 2013 merlot. Gray Fox is a California wine brand/vineyard.
I took a hot, long bath after lunch and then took my time with my after-bath toiletries and what to wear.
At around 3 p.m., I played the first disc of Anthology by Nina Simone. And then I had a snack of Nestlé KitKat in green tea plus ripe papaya, watched The LEGO Batman Movie with three kids, played Newbuild by 808 State plus Only Shallow (French CD single) by My Bloody Valentine, and watched TV.
