Jebediah nearly ruined my birthday.

Yesterday was my birthday.  (Yes, I'm an American, so I'm a yankee doodle dandy born on the Fourth of July).  I get a present from my sister and I open it up.  For context, we are both middle aged and we lost our parents young, so we still say Santa visits and silly things at the holidays for some relief in missing them.  A note falls out written in green ink.  It's from Jebediah Kerman and it says that the Kerbal Space Program is terribly sorry but I was suppose to have gotten another present (I'm guessing a KSP Tee-Shirt  COOL) but the delivery system blew up on the launch pad.  A replacement is being sent barring any more accidents, which is highly unlikely. It was signed, again in green ink by Jeb.  She doesn't play computer games so I had no idea she knew so much about Kerbals   It was great.  A wonderful kerbal birthday, with lots of explosions.

Wow, Happy Birthday Mom.  Both my grandmothers lived to be 93. Here's to your mom for many more!  Dad would have turned 80 in May.  He would have been so addicted to Kerbal Space Program, lol.  That's what I love about this community, so inclusive, so diverse, so many nationalities and ages.  And everyone is so nice and helpful.  A shinning beacon in the cesspool that is the internet.

That was super cool of your sister.

It says a lot about how close you guys are that she took the time to find out enough about one of your hobbies to make something special.

Happy belated birthday!
