Remember October 9th

When I was a kid, I had a button that said Remember Oct. 9th. If I'm remembering right, my dad's sister gave it to me--but then, I thought I remembered that it was for the opening of a Broadway show, and according to google, it was an anti-Vietnam war message, so who knows. I just remember how much it pleased me to have my birthday on it.

I was thinking of it today when I realized how much it pleases me to see the date on everything today. Talking yesterday to the friend who has known me the longest (we were 5 when we met), she said that I'm one of her friends who most enjoys celebrating birthdays, and I guess that's true. I really enjoy my day. It's been a good one. Happy my birthday to you.
