Merry Jer's Day to Ya

As you may know, my birthday falls on Christmas. Most people assume that it sucks. I have really enjoyed it, despite getting birthday pumpkin pie... Everyone goes out of their way to tell me happy birthday, and at all of the Family Christmas functions I go to, I generally get a cake and more presents. Top that! In fact, I enjoy my birthday so much I'd like to spread the joy. I would ask those of you who hate Christmas, for what ever reason, to help me celebrate my birthday. Send Happy Birthday Jer cards to all your friends and family, place Happy Birthday Jer gifts under your Happy Birthday Jer tree and don't forget to put up Happy Birthday Jer lights on your house, (I don't care for the all blue strands). Oh, and be sure to sing Jer's Birthday carols to your neighbors in the middle of the night. Traditional Jer's Birthday dinner includes: 7 layer bean dip, green bean casserole, cheesy potato casserole, your favorite stuffing, turkey, ham and rolls with lots of real butter. You can skip the funky Jello salad stuff. You'll also need generous helpings of your favorite birthday cake or pie, you'll need 35 candles this year. I do not drink anymore, but feel free to raise a glass or two or five of your own. If you raise five, stay the night where you are and sleep among friends. Merry Jer's Day to ya, and have a happy New Year.
