I woke up early one morning feeling depressed because it was
my birthday, and I thought, "I'm another year older" but
decided not to dwell on it. So I showered and shaved, knowing
when I went down to breakfast, my wife would greet me with a
big kiss and say, "Happy Birthday, dear."
All smiles, I went into breakfast, and there sat my wife
reading the newspaper as usual. She didn't say one word. So I
got myself a cup of coffee and thought, "Oh well, she forgot.
The kids will be down in a few minutes; they will sing "Happy
Birthday" and have a nice gift for me." There I sat, enjoying
my coffee, and I waited. Finally the kids came running to the
kitchen yelling, "Give me a slice of toast." "I'm late.
"Where's my coat?" "I'm going to miss the bus." Feeling more
depressed than ever, I left for the office.
When I walked in, my secretary greeted me with a great big
smile and a cheerful, "Happy Birthday, boss!" She then asked
if she could get me some coffee. Her remembering my birthday
made me feel a whole lot better.
Later in the morning, my secretary knocked on my office door
and said, "Since it's your birthday, why don't we have lunch
together?" Thinking it would make me feel better, I said,
"That's a good idea." So we locked up the office, and because
it was my birthday, I said, "Why don't we drive out of town
and have lunch in the country, instead of going to the usual
place?" So we drove out of town and went to a little
out-of-the-way inn and had a couple of martinis and a nice
lunch. We started driving back to town when my secretary said,
"Why don't we go to my place, and I will fix you another
martini?" It sounded like a good idea, because we didn't have
much to do in the office. So we went to her apartment, and she
fixed some martinis.
After a while, she said, "If you will excuse me, I think I
will slip into something more comfortable," and she left the
room. In a few minutes, she opened the bedroom door and came
out carrying a big birthday cake. Following her were my wife
and all my kids...And there I sat with nothing on but socks.
