Happy birthday to the one who would sing duets with me, a round like Don McLeanís ìBabylonî or the Harry Belafonte song on The Muppets:
We come from the mountain
Living on the mountain
Go back to the mountain
Turn the world around.
Happy birthday to the one who read The Hobbit and The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe to me at bedtime because she was taking a class on Childrenís Lit.
Happy birthday to the one who got a stuffed unicorn for Christmas (?) when I was five, a unicorn I would steal from where it sat on her pillow every night until she simply didnít bother retrieving it anymore. Happy birthday to the one who, in 22 years, has not asked me to give the Queen Unicorn back.
Happy birthday to the one who answered a deep philosophical question I was asking about life with ì42!î and a giggle, who thus introduced me to the astonishing genius that was Douglas Adams.
Happy birthday to the one who sang a fragment of ìThe Lion Sleeps Tonightî in a parking lot and thus inadvertently introduced me to The Nylons; happy birthday also to the one who bought me my first two Nylons tapes and watched really bad movies with me just because The Nylons were on the soundtrack.
Happy birthday to my sister, the person who, the more I think about it, could have had a more profound effect on my life only if sheíd actually given birth to me.
