« It's My F---ing Birthday | Main | Miss Piggy Eats Cake »

March 30, 2004

Live from Belgium

I just got out of bed, had one eye open and one hand on the coffee pot when the phone rang. I picked up the phone and heard a female voice on the other end begin singing, in full-blown Marilyn Monroe Happy Birthday Mr. President sex kitten tone.

This confused me, and I thought the person dialed the wrong number and had the wrong day, that maybe that call was meant for my brother, whose birthday is tomorrow. Then I realized who was singing -- it was Zoe, calling me from Belgium. I think she should make an audio recording of herself singing Happy Birthday. It certainly managed to wake me up, that's for sure. :-)

Thank you for being so thoughtful AND so funny, you loopy chick!

Not only am I singing you Happy Birthday, I am singing it with a full-on Marilyn butt and back fat - bless her champagne-tipsy heart. I am doing this because a little twat-birdy skarked in my ear that you are a year older. Wooo...!
