Traditionally, we go out to a Tex-Mex restaurant for the 5th of May and celebrate with our friends who frequent the places and maybe debate the actual significance of the day… or as we usually do, talk about the latest movies.  That is normally we engage in such activities on this day, but not this time.  No, this time everyone was going to be busy today so we celebrated yesterday.

It just wasn’t the same.

No mariachi bands, no colorful flags and banners, no free flowing alcoholic beverages, just we have to hurry up and eat so we can get to our other endeavors.

Then today I eat Italian food all day… pizza, meatball sandwiches, etc… alone.

At least this weekend we are going to an IMAX theater showing of Star Trek and then we are dining in a fine Tex-Mex place so the week is not a total wash.
