Birthday Boy (Oh, yes, I'm back!)

I don't even know where to begin, Dear Roxy. I guess I'll start by apologizing for my absence. Sorry, my friend, and I promise to start writing more.

In sports, my boy Derek Jeter is celebrating his 37th birthday today.

Happy Birthday, Jeet!

I hope he's spending his day rehabilitating as I can't wait that much longer for his 3,000th hit!

And in other news, team USA will go against Mexico tonight for the Gold Cup. I know you're dying to see that... with popcorn in hand!
