My favorite birthday may be my 68th in 2014. Or maybe it's one of the few I can remember. In 2013, my body fell apart and I became a cane-carrying gimp, the recording of Roberta - August 2013 to Feb. 2014 - meant the end of the foundation work, and I spent most of 2014 scrounging for work, little income, working on a computer that was dying, and a lot of physical therapy. On my birthday, Sept. 19, 2014, Josh Clayton, his brother Jeremy, and Rob Berman took me to dinner at Cafe Frida. After the main course was cleared off and we waited for dessert, I was presented with a huge carton, a new iMac. I am still overwhelmed by such a gift.
