Because sometimes short needs to be sweet:

It was a very long day and I have another long one tomorrow and almost half of our computer hardware is out at winter sleepaway camp tonight and I need to go to sleep like an hour ago and et cetera and ad infinitum.

But.

I can't let the day pass without passing on birthday wishes to one of the brightest, most interesting, and funniest people I've met here.

Hugs from us all to platypus:)
