Stormy birthday to me

I celebrated a birthday this past week. I tried for some magic. But I got rained on, instead.

Nothing felt right that day. I felt weepy and lonely and decided to get dressed up (mascara, even!) and go to a special restaurant. I followed someone's hand-drawn map and - ¡Es no hay! It wasn't there. It wasn't anywhere.

When I started walking the 20 hot and dusty blocks back to my hotel, the skies opened up. I got back to the restaurant next to my hotel - the best food I've found in the city so far - and had my dinner back where I'd started.

Three good things happened on my birthday: I found an awesome yoga class. I had an awesome piece of Mexican corn cake. I looked awesome in my birthday outfit, even a bit rained on.
