"What would you like for your birthday this year?" asked her aunt.
The girl thought a moment or two.
"Gainful employment; more sun; a book deal; a great shade of roseberry lipstick; an Italian Chopped Salad from Trader Joe's."
The girl smiled after reciting her list. She had just purchased the lipstick and the salad. Two out of five, she thought, now that's not bad. Happy Birthday to me.
