Once again, the day is here again. I’m another year older. Another year wiser. Getting on the subject of birthdays, I really love them. Most of us love celebrating the day of our birth. This is usually done with presents, a special dinner and the cake and ice cream, with is the staple for most birthday parties.
Birthdays are also the time that you get numerous people coming out of the woodwork. If you have a facebook, you will find a number of people that you normally never talk to wishing you happy birthday. I actually don’t have a problem with this, since everyone who does this are people that I do know. Some, however, are people that I haven’t talked to in years. Oh facebook and your birthday stalkers. You never cease to amaze me…
Muse and Twin Muse: Happy birthday, Kyle!
For me? Thank you!
Muse: We will not be influencers on your birthday, so you won’t have to worry about that.
Twin Muse: Isn’t that great? Just our normal selves!
That’s nice to hear. I wouldn’t want you two to be preoccupied on my birthday!
Muse: Actually, I have something to do. I’ll be right back.
Twin Muse: Me too! I…forgot something!
Really? Not on my birthday!
Muse: Just kidding! Really. There’s no strings attached. I promise.
Twin Muse: True! We’re not hiding anything!
I can remember how last year’s birthday was. You were just your normal selves. The year before that, you were not even around, since I abandoned birthday posts for an or at least a year. The year before that, there was no entry. The year before that, you were a teen Muse. The year before that, you were a tween and you took the day off so that you could spend it with me. The year before that, you were a mermaid and you took the day off so that you could spend it with me. The year before that, you were a Jedi and you took the day off so that you could spend it with me. The year before that, you were were a baby and I wished for you to be an adult for a day. And the year before that, you were brought from the past with Gabrielle so that I could celebrate my birthday with you. And the year before that, you were just getting over your shy tics. And the year before that, you were the Dark Muse…
Muse: You mean the Bad Idea, right? For just that one day, I was normal. After that, the Bad Idea took over again. It was terrible.
Twin Muse: It was pretty bad…
But everything is good this year, right?
Muse: It’s fine. There’s nothing that you need to worry about. So, what do you want to do, birthday boy?
Whatever I want. After all, it is my birthday, right? Well, I don’t have any work today, unfortunately. Besides that, everything else is fair game.
Muse: Right. It took me quite a while to make that cake, so please eat all of it.
Twin Muse: I helped too so please finish that!
Don’t worry. I will, just for you two.
Muse: Don’t I get a piece?
We’ll all eat it. We’ll eat it together…
Twin Muse: What about your brother?
All four of us. We will all eat it together.
Muse: Sounds good to me!
Twin Muse: Me too!
You both…look beautiful. Even more so than other days.
Muse: It’s for you. I appreciate your level of creativity. It keeps me healthy. The new ideas that are born. The ideas that eventually ripen into the most delicious of food. There is never a shortage. You always provide for me, and I’m thankful for it.
Twin Muse: And me. I mean, you have always had both of us. Well, at least in this timeline. I can’t imagine a timeline where you only had one Muse…
Well, if I leave you two starved, it doesn’t help me at all. I don’t mind going the extra mile to keep both of you healthy.
Muse: Your food has given me a unique vitality. One that almost blurs the lines of reality and imagination. I long to be a person like you, but alas…There is a wall of separation between us.
Twin Muse: Look for the real version of me!
Deja vu much?
Muse: I know. I said that three years ago, and it’s still something that I long for. When you find your wife, you will find me. The REAL me.
Muse: Like four years ago, I will ask again. What do you want to do on your birthday?
Twin Muse: What do you want, Kyle?
I just want to have a nice dinner with my family. A nice dinner with some cake and ice cream.
Muse: As you wish. It’s your day, so I won’t sway any of your decisions.
Twin Muse: That’s a good wish!
Good. I’m sure that you won’t be swayed by this…
*gives Muse and Twin Muse a kiss on the lips*
Muse: Hey. I was just about to kiss you! My turn!
*Muse gives me a big kiss*
Twin Muse: Don’t forget about me! I get a turn!
*Twin Muse gives me a big kiss*
That was really good. There’s plenty more where that came from later.
Muse: Not too later. I want to be back by midnight. I don’t want to spoil my beauty rest…
Twin Muse: Same here! I need lots of sleep!
Oh yeah. That’s right. Well, I better enjoy my time with you two while it lasts…
Muse: I’ll enjoy my time with you as well. Anyway, I’ll let you get ready. Happy 41st Birthday, Kyle!
Twin Muse: Happy 41st Kyle!
*Muse and Twin Muse gives me another kiss and vanishes back into my head*
Aren’t they both amazing? I love them immensely and I hope to meet her true identity some day…
From that exchange, it looks like my Muses already gave me their gift, and I shared it with both of them. I will also eat all of that cake with her, Twin Muse, and my brother. Man, am I going to feel that in the morning.
For today, I will be enjoying my birthday today. After that, I will have a nice dinner with my brother, parents, sister, brother in law, nieces, grandma, and aunt at Fuji Sushi for a normal time dinner. After that, we will come home for cake and ice cream. Today’s high is going to be 85. It’s supposed to be cloudy and then rainy, so that will be a little different. Couldn’t the weather have been nicer on my birthday? Oh well… The silver lining today is pretty obvious. It is my birthday and my brother and I will be enjoying it.
To all of you who love birthdays like I do, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.
Muse: Happy 41st birthday, Kyle! I hope that yours is a really good one…
Twin Muse: Happy 41st birthday, Kyle! Enjoy all your gifts, dinner, and cake!
