Mom called this morning around 8 a.m. and Dad called around 8:30. Dad said to me, "I know where you were 36 years ago today, because I was there!" Yes, 36 years ago today, I was born in Quincy, Illinois.
Like many of my birthdays, this will be a low key one. This is exam week at Western New England College, so I'm trying to finish up grading student papers.
Saturday, I had a rehearsal with the beafeaters for the Boars Head Festival. The festival will be Jan. 9-11 this year. I'll be missing two rehearsals, but I should be okay, because I'll be doing all the same things I did last year. Last year's Boars Head Festival was a strange one for us, because my mother-in-law was in the hospital that weekend. We all missed Friday's performance and I was the only one to show up on Saturday from the B. clan.
What I'm really looking forward to is getting together with family for the Christmas holiday. That should be fun.
