birthday dinner

Six of us meet for dinner at B Café.  I’d never been, but will certainly be back.

We’ve come to celebrate Zelia’s birthday.  Aside from the excellent food and exotic beers, the most notable thing about tonight is the easy camaraderie among those attending.

Of course, it should be like that, but hasn’t always been.

More than one past birthday celebration has included vociferous disagreements on politics.  Another one resulted in someone being hurt and walking out.  Then there was the time that two people got into a nasty fight over past discretions.  Oh, and let’s not forget the switching of seats because someone preferred sitting next to someone else. 

But tonight is all good.


It’s clear from the laughter, overlapping conversations, and stories worthy of eavesdropping on, that we are the table that everyone else wishes they were at.
