it’s my friend meghan’s 30th birthday this coming monday. we’ve known each other since we were in tenth grade. that’s half her life. half. her. life. ugh. so, being the wonderful friend and person that i am, i asked her a couple of weeks ago what she wanted for her birthday. her answer?
“i want to be 29.”
uh, meg? yeah, okay. i grinned and repeated the question.
“i want to be 29.”
i sighed, grinned again and told her that i’d do it if i could. that’s when we started playing tetris and the conversation faded from my mind. until about a week ago when i was contemplating her upcoming day while looking at the slippers i’d bought her as a gift. i was musing over what else i could get her.
she wants to be 29…
so, i’ve obtained her birth certificate by very alias means, altered the year of her birth, framed the new document and shall give her the gift she asked for. she can be 29 for another year!
