You Say It's Your Birthday...

 

It's my birthday too, yeah!  If you said, "The Beatles, 1968," you get 10 bonus points.

Yes, it's that day when I am reminded what my Mother said about my birth: "You were trying to be born breach - you came out telling the world to kiss your ass, and that's the way it has been ever since."  Mom always had a way with words.

I have a summer cold.  It's like a regular cold, but worse.  Kinda like a man-cold.  For those of us with asthma, it is, in medical terms: a big ol' bucket of suck.  That plan was for the family to take me out for a nice meal and adore me.  It may have to be an at-home adoring.

Joan started my day out with a big ol' smile: a personalized birthday card with this on the front...


 The inside of the card telling me I am the best Cat Dad.  Which is true.  I was there when they voted.  And then an 8x10 composite photo with these images...




 Joan found a company that takes your photos and uses AI to create these fun images.  She was right: it made me smile, through the coughing and wheezing.
