“That’s it? You don’t have anything else to say to me today?” she asked her mom, who answered, “I didn’t realize it was the 18th today. Happy birthday! I haven’t got your present in the mail. Will do very soon.”
“Life imitates art,” Ringwald wrote back, referencing her “Sixteen Candles” character, Samantha.
