Dinner with "the bird"

In our line of work it is very often that you meet people who have a huge impact on your life or the life of your spouse which then makes an impression on you as well. Then you never see these folks again, not so in this particular case. "The bird" has managed to let us fly in and out of her life through the years, I like to think we have become part of her flock...she may not think that is so cool as we can be the type to pull out our feathers at the most inopportune time...but she still likes us for the most part!

Anywho, last evening after negotiating some pretty rough LA traffic which is way worse then DC we made our way to dinner at her place where as always she treated us and provided us with much humor from her daily life. I can say I don't think there is ever a dull moment with the bird, she is constantly meeting the need, challenging the masses and taking care of those in blue, she is truly a rare breed. We have known this all along and that is why Man In Blue takes any and every opportunity to sit in her presence...he says he tries to take in as much as he can as she is still one of the sane ones out there. One who knows what we should be doing, and more importantly how we should be doing it! She is so no nonsense!

Since MiB didn't cook dinner we had him cleanup!!! :)

He needed supervision and she was certainly the one for the job!

Another enjoyable evening as our time in LA draws to a close. We have the big fancy smancy shindig tonight, then back to the heartland.
