I had to resort to talking to myself while everyone else observed for a few minutes. I stayed on for a while because I did not have to get up early the next morning, which was my birthday then. Maybe, Greg.
You have done better than most of my family, I have not received one birthday greeting in the mail. Just from my parents and friends, and even my internet provider sent me greetings. Oh well I guess. Thank you for the tought and such wise and thereforth and what not. Maybe, Greg.
Birthday wishes from parents and friends isn't so bad. I don't get them from anyone except my older sister, my wife, daughter and mother-in-law who lives with us.
I haven't really celebrated birthdays until my wife gave me my first birthday party when I turned 35 or 37 or somewhere in there.
When you get to where you expect them, they are not as special as those who surprise you. And the ones who surprise you are those who end up being the ones you least expected to do so, which really makes it a special surprise!
