Woops

On Monday I called my friend in LA. I sang her a lovely birthday song on her voicemail, and I thought to myself, "Yay! I am a nice friend who called on her friend's birthday to wish her well."

(Okay, I didn't actually think that specifically, but something to that effect.)

Then today I checked my email after two days, and I received (not quoting):

Hi Liz,

Thank you for the nice birthday message. It made me smile. Since my birthday is actually tomorrow, you are officially the first to call.


Woops! Well, you win some; you lose some.
