I wish I had the time to go every other weekend. I barely get to go every other month.

And thanks for the (belated) birthday greetings. I'll forgive you since you were on vacation. But in case you didn't know, in the Jewish religion (which I practice faithfully), the birthday celebration extends for 15 days from the time at which the greetings are first offered, and true friends generally offer the same gift for each of the 15 days that they did initially.
