You don’t happen to live around here, do you… cuz I would totally invite you over.

Happy Birthday, **lev** and you, too,\*\* Risha\*\*.

Your woman sounds like a twat, and your birthday of all days should remind you that life is short, and you should be happy while you still can.

And I always thought that song went “You say it’s your birthday”, not “Today is your birthday”, so ignorance fought.

Its sucky to have your birthday forgotten by the one person who supposed to remember and acknowledge it. I know how you feel. “I’m not some spoiled brat or a kid who needs balloons, but a happy birthday would have told me you noticed you cared, especially since I’m always cleaning up your messes.” Not sure what your situation is otherwise, but maybe you should get out, the woman is not an adult.

_lifts glass_ here’s to a happy birthday, and that next year this time you look back and feel so much better about where you are.

Hey, Happy Birthday, yesterday.

I’m handing you an imaginary balloon. One for each of you. You get to pick what color it is.

I’m not absolutely certain, but for those who don’t speak French I think Nava just said the cumquats are full of decimals, then something about Trotsky and the Kurds.
