Thanks, Sam. I think that's the first time I've received birthday wishes from Baghdad. That's amazing.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Tonight, I will pour a glass of red wine and toast your special day, after dinner!

Yes, tomorrow isn’t promised to any of us. But thinking there’s another 20 years to go is an interesting framework. I hope I have more than that though, with healthy eating, exercise and regular medical check-ups.

lol, Linda. I hope I have much more than that, too. Hope I have double that, but it works as a framework for me. Have a second glass for me, too. Wine puts me right to sleep.

Well, I turned 69 in October...25 or so more years sound about right. My dad passed at 92 while my mom a few weeks shy of her 61st special day (but she had a serious illness for most of her life, I.e., systemic lupus erthymatosis.

Happy Birthday to one of my favorite people on this planet. I'm sending you warmth from my heart and the California sun.

My gift to you: The words dingus and pandiculation, inspired by my walk with Kaida today. Use them to describe your birthday. ;)
