Today is both my mother's 70th birthday and the 100th anniversary of the 1906 Earthquake and Fire in San Francisco, where she (and I) were born. Both her parents were babies at the time, and her father and his family lived in a tent in Golden Gate Park for several months afterwards.
Since I posted birthday greetings to my dog a couple of weeks ago, I thought it would be a very bad idea not to wish mom the same, although she goes online even less than my dogs do, and would never know. I also thought I'd better move that questionable post I did on a television show down the page a bit, before things got even more out of hand than they already have in the comments section.
Now I'm heading to San Francisco to wish my mother, and the most beautiful City on earth, a happy day in person.
Happy Birthday, Mom! And congratulations on making it a hundred years without falling into the sea, San Francisco.
Happy birthday to Christie's Mom!!
And that whole San Francisco thang. ;)
