Happy Birthday!

Another year down for a few people......Happy Birthday to Sandy (here at the office)....well, not actually here now since she only works two days a week (and I'm not sure that we can call solitaire work Sandy) and Happy Birthday to Nikki (otherwise known as Zach's better half)...and Happy Birthday to Jeff (also known as Jennifer's lesser half).

Nikki turns the big 2-1 today so it is a big one for her. We have Cheeseburger in Paradise on the agenda for this evening. I'm pretty sure when we get there the people will see John and escort us to our VIP section. They'll immediately have his usual drink ready and hopefully ignore the sexual harassment that our section will dish out.

I wonder if Zach actually remembered to get her a gift? Probably not. If he did, it's probably something lame like an inflatable "You're #1" finger or a Chia Pet. One of these days Nikki will wake up and realize that she is way out of his league.....and that's when Zach's life will come tumbling down.

Let's not pass over Jeff's birthday too. I think he turns somewhere between 30 and 43 today. The age would explain the slow balding that I've been noticing over the last few years. Or, it could be the actuarial work taking it's toll on him......or, it could be the fact that he has a kid on the way and realizes that life is now over and so he (along along with his hair) has given up. Either way, get ready for a quick downward spiral in life. The next year will consist of overpriced formula, overpriced diapers, a complaining wife, sleepless nights, a strong inclination to stay at the office longer, and the realization that you can in fact develop a tolerance for NyQuil Cold Medicine.

In any case, happy birthday to all. Even though we aren't all together to celebrate, let us take a moment to think of one another while we're enjoying our cake!
