Happy Birthday To Me

Does today seem just like yesterday, or is that just me?

Happy Birthday, it looks like it's Norman Rockwell's too.
He took your spot on Google's Doodle.

Happy Birthday to you, Patrick.

It's not just you - today is a lot like yesterday, and the day before, and the week before, etc.

That's why there are seasons, I guess.

I prefer to go a bit more literal when it comes to birthday wishes, so...

Joyous (however old you are)-st/rd/th anniversary of your uterine expulsion from your mother!

In all truth, I think the French have it right to wish a "Bonne anniversaire." I'd feel sorry for the women of the world to have to rebirth their children each year. :P

I've always been partial to "Many Happy Returns of the Day". Hope it was a fun one, and that you are granted many more.

Thanks all. I was born caesarean section in what is now Harare, Zimbabwe in 1959. My older brother was a regular delivery, born in Beirut, Lebanon, so it was expected I too would be a quick and easy delivery, but apparently I had this ENORMOUS HEAD. All worked out in the end (thanks Mom!, thanks Dad!) but YES, I have been "doing it wrong" since the very beginning.

Sort of explains that obsession about too large rib cages on dogs, that bit about too large a head to fit through the tunnel. But I and the others are delighted you made it.

Happy birthday!

LOL! Perfect Mary. Best snap yet. And maybe true. I am, I think, a born terrierman.

Ha, I'm tempted to make a "maladaptive" joke here, but I'll pass. ;)

It's been too long since I fired up my Johnny Clegg CDs, but it seems to me there's an old tune by him with a lyric, "Going to Harare, it's such a heavy load", or something similar. Yup, WAY too long, but great music, especially in person. Front row. Center. Robert Palmer headlining, and Johnny Clegg blowing our doors in. Damn, that was a sweet night.

I am VERY maladaptive in this snow. Not only are my knees too low down to easily pull out of the deeper drifts, by my privates drag in the snow unless I wear clothes (which the neighbors *do* strongly encourage every way they can) ;)

I'm definitely maladaptive in this snow, at least in attitude. Yeah, well, my body doesn't like it much, either. The clothing comment has me intrigued, however. Are you the male "model" in the "Snorkeling in Maryland" picture someone just sent me? Buck nekkid, snorkel on, face-down in the snow, "swimming"? It was the only thing that made me laugh all day. If so, thanks, Patrick, lol!
