Big Birthday Dinner Flop

My big birthday plan was to go to dinner at the Rainforest Cafe in Burlington, MA. But, today, we decided last minute to go for lunch instead. We got there about 1:00pm and there was a 3 hour wait. We made reservations for 4pm. We "wasted" the three hours having lunch at the food court and poking around the mall. Finally 4pm came and we made our way back to the Rainforest Cafe for dinner. Once inside, Kaitlyn had a major "steroid-induced" meltdown. Partly, she was freaked out by the animatronic animals and the noise, which caused some whining. Then it came time to order and she couldn't decide on anything which caused even more screaming and crying. After 20 minutes, we gave up and left without having even ordered anything. Mike and I were both extremely frustrated, but I know that it was just too much for Katie. With her being a little scared, the noise level, having a short nap and the steroids making her crazy, it was all just too much.

So, to summarize, my big birthday dinner was a big birthday flop!!!

Leukemia wins again...the score today...Leukemia - 1, Amy - zip!

To quote a book I am reading...

"What does cancer look like?
He's a big, fat, ugly puppeteer and he's holding all the strings!"

Today, you can just call me Pinocchio.

After leaving the Rainforest Cafe, we came home and ordered take-out from Cancun's in Grafton. We ate at home...lol.

Happy Birthday Pinocchio!!!
