Better Late

Happy Birthday, Nori. I can only imagine what took place at your party this year. After hearing about your previous one, I'm sure you had a good time.

Hopefully she can forgive me for the belated wish. Her birthday was May 4th for the curious. I think deep in my subconcious I was blotting the date out my mind since I couldn't be there in person. Well, actually, I just broke my old PDA, and that's a bit like having a stroke for me, since I am hopeless to remember these things without my digital mnemonic prosthesis. In any case, it certainly doesn't deserve any kind of beating next time I see her, right?

When I think of where my life is now, and all the changes that have come to be, I am amazed. Thank you, Nori, for being the inspiration to take control of my life and to make all of these things happen. You've given me a great gift. I hope this past birthday was a delight, and I wish you, many, many more, full of love and joy.

And next time I see you, I hope I hear all the juicy details!
