What's in a date?

31 May.
Just another day.
It happens to be my mothtrapping friend Barbara's birthday.
It's one of the few days in the year which is not a Saint's Day.
It's a day when people are born, people get married, people fall of a bus, break a leg, win the lottery.
Just another day.
Once a year, a day arrives which reminds me of things I don't want to be reminded of. That day is 31 May.
Thank god for 1 June. At least it gives me 364 days before the next reminder of things past, things lost.
