Happy birthday

This week might be the longest birthday celebration for me ever. It all started last week, when some fellow Facebookers saw my name in a list of upcoming birthdays. Assumptions began to be made, and I started getting Happy Birthday greetings a week early. Kind of reminds me of singing Christmas carols during Advent.

Then four days before the actual day, I was treated to a most delightful surprise party.

Then three days before the actual day, I was treated to another most delightful surprise party.

The gifts have been extravagant. New flight simulator software, and some wonderful Dutch organs on the Hauptwerk system.

As of this writing, it's still not my birthday, but I am certainly enjoying the new toys and the chocolate cake. Tomorrow is Birthday Eve, and there shall be another party with drinks and chocolate cake. The Day itself will be spent teaching and then driving to my aunt's house, where I will enjoy home cooking.

And more chocolate cake.

Laissez les bon temps roulez.
