Generally the Palm Springs Weekend ends up very close or on one of my birthday days so I get my increasingly aged ass there for some kind of celebration. (My family celebrates a couple of weekends before because my sister and a close cousin all have birthdays at the same time). When in PS for my birthday I stay at the Hacienda for a few days and consider it a treat. Of course, I always think of a few other treats that I can give myself while I am there. And it's more than a candle I'm blowing out.
