Birthdays and Email

Today is my birthday and I promised myself that I wouldn't do any work today.  So this isn't work.  I just wanted to share something with you that happened to me this morning. 

I got up and decided that I wanted to do something fun for my birthday, so I went online to do a google search to find something cool to do.  In the process, I opened my email and found - to my great joy - an email box full of birthday wishes from people I knew! 

Now I know that almost all of these people had automatic reminders set to to tell them it was my birthday.  And I know that many of the cards I received were stock cards.  But the fact remains that they all put effort into creating a card for me.  They picked which card to send, they personalized the message.  It IS the thought that counts. 

So this morning, I got an email box full of love and good intentions.  Happy Birthday To ME!  Happy Birthday To Me!  Happy Birthday to Me!  Happy Birthday to Me!

Woot!  Whee!
