It’s my birthday, who could be calling me? Probably my clone, wondering why he hasn’t been born yet.

The event happened on my birthday. I don’t remember the date, I only know it was my birthday because there was no cake or presents.

Glen had a disability more disfiguring than a burn and more terrifying than cancer. Glen had been born on the day after Christmas. "My parents just combine my birthday with Christmas, that's all," he explained. But we knew this was a lie. Glen's parents just wrapped a couple of his Christmas presents in birthday-themed wrapping paper, stuck some candles in a supermarket cake, and had a dinner of Christmas leftovers. ↗

I count too heavily on birthdays, though I know I shouldn't. Inevitably I begin to assess my life by them, figure out how I'm doing by how many people remember; it's like the old fantasy of attending your own funeral: You get to see who your friends are, get to see who shows up. ↗

The year you were born marks only your entry into the world. Other years where you prove your worth, they are the ones worth celebrating.
