feliz cumpleaños, querida

33 years ago Rhonda Lee Mellinger was born into this world.


We have spent seven birthdays together in a wide range of settings. The first birthday we spent together we were brand new to this relationship (1 month in), and I took her to the Oregon coast for the day. We celebrated both of our 30th b.days by going to Costa Rica. Two years ago we were in Port Townsend drinking champagne (where Rhonda claims to have gotten drunk for the first time ever -- see photos above). This year we are headed to Green Bay to eat Sushi and to find the dyke bar (yes, there is one). And then, after that, we're going grocery shopping!

I am amazed and honored to spend a seventh birthday tucked away in our little house in the North Woods. What an adventure it has been!

So did you ask Rhonda's permission before you posted the photos? they're pretty funny!

nope! Although I would have taken them down if she had objections. She did say "what, you couldn't post one of the nice pictures of me from Costa Rica?"

Happy birthday, Rhonda! I hope they at least had champagne at that lesbian bar in Greenbay.
