So I’m a jerk and I totally missed my sister’s birthday last Friday. Happy super late birthday Lisa! I’m sorry I didn’t call you on your actual birthday, but come to think of it, I don’t recall getting a phone call from you that day either to see if I was okay. I could have gotten into a car accident and have been lying in a ditch somewhere. Or I could have been shot in a random drive-by shooting. Or I could have been kidnapped by a deranged convict who escaped prison. You don’t know. Those things can really happen, even though none of them actually did. Did it occur to you even once last Friday that maybe I hadn’t called because something bad happened to me? Yet, no phone call from you checking to make sure I was okay. That’s a little selfish of you, but I hope you had a great birthday anyway. Love you!
