B’s mother and aunt called, and his sister who is currently vacationing in Florida texted to wish me a happy birthday. As I mentioned, my dad came by earlier in the day with a check and a card. Real friends called, emailed or texted and the facebook greetings from people with whom I haven’t had a verbal conversation with in 10-15 years in some cases are still rolling in. But my mother? I checked my email this morning to see a 10:45pm, too late to call so I have to email, happy birthday email written in a giant purple font in all caps. Think the font makes up for the fact that she forgot to wish me a happy birthday until I was already in bed?
