I know. I would have gotten two more if I could have remembered how to spell Guyana and Guinea-Bissau. It also would have helped if I had remembered the countries with short names... like Cuba.
Did you ever watch Anamaniacs? They did a song once with all the countries of the world and I used to have it on cassette. I really wish I had learned that one better, even though there's a few that have changed names since the 90s.
My birthday was okay--I didn't really do anything special that day, but I sort of had mini-celebrations all month long so it didn't really matter. One of the girls at work likes to bake, and she brought in a ton of goodies--scones, cheesecake, and even homemade truffles, so we had a little party in our corner of the office. No worries on missing the day, I think you were probably on your cruise or had just gotten back then anyway, and vacations are bad for messing up internal calendars. :) Next year it will be a weekend, so maybe I can actually do something fun that day.

What a sad commentary! But in my defense...my poor spelling didn't help my efforts. Now I need to go to school and look at a globe!
