sad trombone
This post is a little belated, but happy birthday to Erin!
First off, let me say that I still can't see what's so sad about a woman turning 32, or why it would sound like a sad trombone. Do men turning 32 also sound like sad trombones? I know I'm just a humorless old (I am 32, you know) curmudgeon, so I guess I just don't get the joke.
But that's OK, because the sad trombone show was a hit. We packed the room once more, and this time with many new faces. The performers had us all laughing our asses off, which is a nice break in November.
Anyway, as long as we're claiming the sound of birthdays, I hereby announce that the sound of a woman turning 33 in 2010 will be a trilling piccolo followed by crashing symbols. Just sayin'.
