Once again, you missed my birthday.

August 22, 1941.
It was last Saturday.
There was cake (German chocolate) and ice cream (butter pecan).
Balloons, even.

Adult beverages were served.
Lots.

A few close friends enjoyed with us Miz t.'s supper of chicken cordon bleu, asparagus with Hollandaise sauce, pecan rice and Caesar salad.

You don't write, you don't call.
I'm just not feelin' the love.

The supper sounds delicious. The b-day cake and ice cream - YUM!

I have no excuse aside from my ignorance of the event. So, I plead ignorance. I'm guilty. Guilty as sin. Except I don't much put any stock in the concept of sin. Still - I'm guilty.

Sorry.

"Not synced".
But they give you no clue as to how to 'sync' it.
I'll tackle customer service tomorrow.

It was a small cake (small crowd) and there's some left.
Come on over.
We're having lasagna tonight.

There are photos of a birthday at one. Which she did not even organize.

And then there was that one year she shocked the crap out of me at the age of ten

She actually had a present and a card for me when I came home from school.

Only damn time.

But rage upon you if you forgot HER birthday,
