Thanksbirthgiving Day
Every six years or so, my birthday lands on Thanksgiving Day. That was the case this year.
When I was a child, I hated when my birthday landed on Thanksgiving – it meant all my friends would be with their families and I had no chance to hang out with them. Certainly a self-fish response, but hey, I was a kid.
When I hit my twenties, I realized how great it was to have my birthday fall on Thanksgiving. It means I get to celebrate my birthday the night before with a bunch of friends and then on my birthday I get to enjoy one of the greatest meals of the year. Turkey, stuffing, potatoes, yams, good wine, pumpkin pie and birthday cake – that’s the best birthday meal there is! This Thanksgiving, it was all about me!
So, Happy Birthday to me! And Happy Thanksgiving to all of you
