A long, long time ago...28 years and 2 days to be exact...one of the coolest people in the world was born. 
Roughly 7 years and 3 months after her birth, an egg was fertilized and what was to become Deanna Michelle was created. For about 9 months Dea (that is what she likes to be called for short) was brewing in her mother's belly. She would say to herself over and over, "Oh, how I long to be as cool as the one that was born about 7 years and 3 months prior to my conception." she thought and thought...it was hard for the first few months as her brain wasn't fully developed. (Is it now, I wonder?? 
) But eventually it dawned on her...she had the potential to be born on the exact same day as the cool one!!! Oh how she tried and tried. When May 1st came around she started preparing. She positioned herself so that she was upside down in the birth canal. She practiced her kicks so that her legs would have the strength to propel her at full speed down the canal. She even found a spot on her mother's ribs that gave her the ultimate kick off support. It was now 10 days later, May 11th. In preparation for the big day, Dea decided to get some rest. She laid the cord next to her, to insure that it wouldn't be tangled around her neck as she shot herself, like a bullet after a bad guy, down that canal and she fell asleep. She slept long and hard. She dreamed about the cool one that night. It was a vivid dream. In the dream, Dea met the cool one face to face. They talked and talked. Dea was so happy! She, however, didn't realize this was just a dream. When she awoke she realized it was 11pm on May 12th!!!!!! OMG! Dea scrambled. She had one hour to shoot down that birth canal, and one hour only! Dea knew that this was her only chance at being as cool as the cool one..she couldn't stay in her mother’s womb for another year...or could she??? No, Dea decided against this, as she realized that she would be so huge when she was born that she maybe considered an outcast. This was the last thing Dea wanted. Her sole desire was to be like the cool one, so she started kicking and pushing herself down that canal. Dea's mother was surprised that the contractions were that far together immediately...and her water hadn't even broke!!! (Da da daaaa!) Dea had forgotten one key element to the birth!!! Dea's mother rushed to the hospital. She was in tears because she feared for her baby's safety. Dea over heard the doctors trying to figure out why the water hadn't broken. Dea was freaking out! OMG!!! It is quarter till midnight! Dea knew that her chances of being like the cool one were slim. she hurried. She got the water to break and she kicked with all her might to slide down that canal at full speed! BUT...Dea soon realized there was another problem. She was in such a hurry with breaking the water that the cord got wrapped around her neck! Dea pulled herself back into the womb and un- tangled the cord and placed it nicely by her side and she kicked with all her might, again, to get down that canal in time. But this time Dea met with resistance. WTF is going on Dea wondered as she kicked and kicked. She realized she wasn't going anywhere. As a matter of fact something was pushing her back into the womb. It was now one minute till midnight, the first hour of May 13th. Dea realized it was going to be too late! That is when she over heard it. Dea's mother was crying, "I can not have my baby be born on the 13th. That is the devil's day! If she were born on the 13th then she has the potential of having a birthday on a Friday! She would be bad luck!" That is when Dea understood. She couldn't take the chance of he mother being ashamed of her, so she waited until the 14th. And that is the story of how Dea was two days late and a buck short of being like the cool one.
Sorry Dea, but like I told you… you are still OK.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Get me something nice, will ya??
