Oh. Mygod.
My birthday was in June (waaay past 27…). I opened up my mom’s birthday card–on my birthday–to read, “Bad news. Your cousin [Rose] died.”
And now, I’m sitting here reading this comic in which someone’s dad shows up on their birthday to tell them their grandmother is dying.
Is this some horrible, obscure birthday tradition?!
Well, on the day when you celebrate the relentless march toward old age and death, it makes sense to have some blatant reminder of mortality…
*party blower noise*
I’m with Shanna! XD
