It’s Matthew’s birthday today!
I’m so happy that my class got docked from a five-day to a three-day so I could come home in time for his birthday. Happy dance.
I’m making his favorite: chocolate pie. We had a mini party last week with everyone here where he opened one of the presents I got him (boxed set of the 3rd season of Jeeves and Wooster on DVD). He gets to open his big prezzie tonight.
Everyone sing it with me:
Happy birthday, O happy birthday
Sorrow, gloom, and despair,
People dying everywhere
Happy birthday, O happy birthday
One year closer to your death
And your last gasping breath
Happy birthday, O happy birthday
Happy birthday, O happy birthday
May the candles on your cake
Burn like cities in your wake
Happy birthday, O happy birthday
