Crap! My mother's birthday was yesterday.
In truth, I really did not "forget" her birthday. I did call her shortly after JD departed. I got her answering machine, and I was not expecting her to not be at home. Honestly, I was momentarily stunned. Should I leave a message? What type of message? A simple, cheerful "Hi! Happy Birthday Mom!" or should I belt out a stirring rendition of the Birthday song? In Spanish even....
Instead, I simply decided to hang up and call her on my way back from rehearsal. Yeah...you know how this story goes, don't ya? Been there yourself? Yep, I totally forgot to call. And now she's out of town for a week and a half!
I am such a bad, bad daughter.....
