Back on Monday, Valentines Day (I know, it seems ages ago), <\/a> cecerose<\/b><\/a> 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.<\/p>\n

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 <\/a> cecerose<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n


\nYou say it’s your birthday
\nIt’s my birthday too–yeah
\nThey say it’s your birthday
\nWe’re gonna have a good time
\nI’m glad it’s your birthday
\nHappy birthday to you.<\/p>\n

Yes we’re going to a party party
\nYes we’re going to a party party
\nYes we’re going to a party party.<\/p>\n

I would like you to dance–Birthday
\nTake a cha-cha-cha-chance-Birthday
\nI would like you to dance–Birthday
\nDance<\/p>\n

I would like you to dance–Birthday
\nTake a cha-cha-cha-chance-Birthday
\nI would like you to dance–Birthday<\/p>\n

You say it’s your birthday
\nWell it’s my birthday too–yeah
\nYou say it’s your birthday
\nWe’re gonna have a good time
\nI’m glad it’s your birthday
\nHappy birthday to you.<\/p>\n

Hopefully, this helps brighten your mood a little… and I bet you thought I was going to lead folks in “The Birthday Cake Polka”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
