Back on Monday, Valentines Day (I know, it seems ages ago), cecerose wrote: “and my birthday is at the end of the week… when I turn 40 next year (2006), I want to do something fun. I dunno, like burn down things.” Then, this morning she wrote “I don’t think I’ve had a more depressing birthday in years.” Alas, she doesn’t have the month and day in her user profile to confirm things, but I’m guessing her birthday was either yesterday, or it is today.
So… OK, Folks, you know the drill. Let’s set up the old turntable, turn it up loud enough to disturb the neighbors, and put on The Beatles “White Album” and all sing together for cecerose:
You say it’s your birthday
It’s my birthday too–yeah
They say it’s your birthday
We’re gonna have a good time
I’m glad it’s your birthday
Happy birthday to you.
Yes we’re going to a party party
Yes we’re going to a party party
Yes we’re going to a party party.
I would like you to dance–Birthday
Take a cha-cha-cha-chance-Birthday
I would like you to dance–Birthday
Dance
I would like you to dance–Birthday
Take a cha-cha-cha-chance-Birthday
I would like you to dance–Birthday
You say it’s your birthday
Well it’s my birthday too–yeah
You say it’s your birthday
We’re gonna have a good time
I’m glad it’s your birthday
Happy birthday to you.
Hopefully, this helps brighten your mood a little… and I bet you thought I was going to lead folks in “The Birthday Cake Polka”.
