My absolutely favorite birthday mishap comes in the form of my 26th birthday again (this was a really great and super eventful birthday with lots of visitors!) is when my best friend Jesse showed up a whole month early, during one of the absolute most stressful midterms I’ve ever taken in my life. He sent me a text about being at the Greyhound station and having to pay for parking. When I asked him where he was going, he sent me back a few dots, and the connection hit. Tomorrow was the 10! meaning this man thought my birthday was November 10th.
He literally panicked, and so did I because I had midterms; I was nowhere near finished. It was due on Monday, and I also worked a full-time job standing all day as security in NYC, adding in commute times and everything; it was just wild. He came a few hours after I got off work, we went out for food and drinks the next day, and he was absolutely fine with me doing my homework. We went out for food both days; he visited me and went all over Manhattan. We still laugh about it to this day, and coincidentally, for my actual birthday, he wished me a happy birthday two days later, thinking it was December 10th. Needless to say, I passed that class with flying colors, and I am so happy he came because it was a much-needed distraction.
