Keeping it short and sweet as the ink dries on the birthday card:

[o] Weekend was working longer hours than scheduled
[o] Yesterday was Chicago with Sam, BJ, and Raequan
[o] Today is Aurelie's birthday!
[o] and I'm about to leave to go to Lake Michigan with her and Allie

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
