How pathetic is this?

[Tab]

Yesterday was my wife, "Susan"'s birthday. It was a quiet affair (she was turning 45). We thought, though, that maybe when we called another family member we could pretend there was a party going on. So I got the idea to look at YouTube to find clips of people singing "Happy Birthday Susan" that I could play in the background. Did you know you could do that? We spent the next half hour going through YouTube clips of people giving birthday wishes, sometimes singing, sometimes just odes, to other Susans. Not her; someone else named Susan.

We had to wonder, how frickin' pathetic is that? You don't have a party yourself, but you troll YouTube for recorded birthday wishes for other people with your same name and pretend they're for you.

3. You could always just take a picture of the bed, throw a huge "CENSORED" box over it,...

..., and send it out with text that says, "Great party! Wish you could have been here."

6. That doesn't sound pathetic, at all.

I imagine the two of you giggling like teenagers and sharing a silly moment. That's better than a party full of relatives that will annoy you and friends that will puke on your rug.

Happy Birthday, 'Susan'!!!

A fun birthday is always the best.
