‘I beg your pardon?’ Alice said with a puzzled air.

‘I’m not offended,’ said Humpty Dumpty.

‘I mean, what is an un-birthday present?’

‘A present given when it isn’t your birthday, of course.’

Alice considered a little. ‘I like birthday presents best,’ she said at last.

‘You don’t know what you’re talking about!’ cried Humpty Dumpty. ‘How many days are there in a year?’

‘Three hundred and sixty-five,’ said Alice.

‘And how many birthdays have you?’

‘One.’

when i got back from lunch, today, my office manager and HR guy sang me "happy birthday," very, very quietly. i thanked them, and then they reminded me that they will sing much louder at tomorrow's monthly office-wide breakfast meeting. i informed them that i do not like being the center of attention, and they decided to make a special "sarah announcement" at every meeting from here on out.

joy.

i told them "I...don't have a threat for you. YET. ...Just wait."
