I’m gonna have a good time
November 03, 2008 By: almostgotit Category: UncategorizedThank you for the Birthday Haiku, Rufus! Birthdays are great when you are old and no longer have any expectations about birthdays at all, one way or the other. So the doorbell rang this morning and it was a total revelation to see a strange person standing on the porch there wearing a bandana over her face and carrying a lit birthday candle. It was a Birthday Breakfast Kidnapping (With Pitbull), of course. Plus also my mother called all the way from Washington State, so apparently I’m forgiven for not telling her about the whole job thing. My son has no idea it’s my birthday, but someone will tell him as someone always does. My husband knows it’s my birthday but he has meetings all day (and has a guy he needs to take out for a beer this evening!!) so we’re rescheduling our celebration for next weekend. Good enough for me!

Oh, Honey, I was only able to leave a message, not an actual call at all really. You put a smile on my face even before you were born and I’ve not stopped smiling over you these ??? years. and sometimes those smiles just erupt into snorts of belly laughs. Happy birthday to you! MOM
