Happy Birthday Jacklyn!
I know this is late in coming--but two days ago the world had the occasion to celebrate the birth of a remarkable lady who sometimes contributes to this blog, Jacklyn Hyde.
THE BIRTHDAY DIRGE
tune: "Volga Boatmen"
Happy Birthday!
1. Now you've aged another year
Now you know that Death is near
Happy Birthday!
1a. So you've aged another year
Now you know that Death is near
(Nah, it isn't-let's be centarians together!)
I also wanted to say "thanks" to her because I can't think of many people who would actually offer to come to Lexington to help us despite the fact that it is best she takes care of herself and stays well (the pneumonia bug has Tony in the hospital with me to follow). We're OK, so do yourself a favor and relax and stay home and snuggle with Pros!
It's SOOO cool when one of the best people I've ever known in my life (yeah, that's you, Pros--I wanted to say that in writing) finds a woman who is equally remarkable and good for him to spend his life with--I knew I had to adopt her immediately as an honorary sister. We will be recovering, you two, and there's lots of fun concerts coming up next month, so we'll see what we can do to help you celebrate Heather's birthday properly!
