So I woke up to a phone call from a number I'd never seen and was informed that Brooks Florist was outside the house. I walked out to find a bunch of balloons waiting for me with the following note attached:

"21 Balloons to celebrate your 21 years of life. Happy Birthday + hopefully you will remember this after you sober up. Luv you, Mom + Dad."

BTW, if you want to understand the psyche of a July 4th birthday, I suggest visiting here and here's a list of other prominent Independence Day babies.
