happy birthday

.
Six months ago, Sarah and Cathy gave me a cat (Frances) for my birthday. Frances was said to be six months old. Logically, then, she'll be a year old on the 15th. Sarah decided to celebrate her birthday today, and she went shopping with Cathy and brought back a scratching rug and hidey tunnel for the kitty. They also got a tiny cake and more cat treats.

We had the party somewhere around noon, with Sonali and Isham from down the street. They gave Frances cat treats and her presents while we ate pieces of cake. We sang that song. It's also Ishan's birthday, though his party is tomorrow, and my sister's birthday (hipy papy bthuth thuthdy, [livejournal.com profile] gixhaix!).

It's also a day of celebration for the town, which has a wing-ding in the library parking lot, on the bank of the canal. Sarah was reluctant to go, but as soon as we got there she started running into school friends, so we hung around with their parents.

We even ran into Sonali and Ishan.

Since it was a midway, we ate some stuff. I had a cup of gumbo and a tray of fried alligator from a vendor and topped it off, a while later, with a nutella crepe (including strawberries, banana slices, whipped cream, and vanilla ice cream) from Simply Crepes for dessert.

I also encountered the local historical society folks. I'll probably join the group. It'll be another way to meet people older than myself.
