So, it seems every other blogger has a birthday this week.
Which obviously makes it the classiest week in the blog calendar to have a birthday in.
Which makes it very appropriate that I perform the classiest of birthday greeings for a very special (and very classy) person.
So here goes:
[clears throat]
[coughs long and loudly, almost choking in places]
[takes a deep breath]
[coughs some more]
[takes another deep breath]
[coughs some more, this time taking a drink of water]
[takes another deep breath]
Haaaaaappppy Biiiiirthday [wheeze] toooo yoooooooooouuuuuu....
[takes a deep breath and dissolves into another coughing fit]
Haaaaaaaaaaappppy Biiiiiiiiirthday [wheeze, cough, splutter] tooooooooo yoooooooooouuuuuu....
Haaaaaaaaaaappppy Biiiiiiiiirthday [wheeze, choke] deeeearest hunnybunnysnugglywuggly [ok, i'm making myself sick here, never mind you lot, sorry.] birthday boooooy...
[enormous eye-watering sneeze]
Haaaaaaappppy Biiiiiiiiirthday [strangled squeak, wheeze, cough] tooooooooo yoooooooooouuuuuu....
[collapses in a heap, reaching for glass of water and box of kleenex balsam]
Now that's special.
Thanks. I'm touched and honoured. This really has brought tears to my eyes. You haven't quite done your voice justice though . . .
*sniff*
Beautiful, just beautiful ...
*wipes away tear*
(Is it OK to vomit now?) :-)
I'm classy? Well there's always a first time for everything. Sorry to hear you're still under the curse of the lurgy :-(
