NO! Not really....

The birthday was actually December 30th. Gnu should've remembered such things because he started a birthday thread in my honor a couple of years ago at 10:30 pm on the night of the event when I let mention of the fact out in a late night chat room and the next day I got a pile of wonderful posts saying, "Sorry I'm late!". It now being July, it's hard to tell who's being late and who's being early.

Any Brits who rushed out and bought presents they can't return can give them to me anyway during late August-early September when I will be visiting over there. A thread about THAT will be launched quite soon.

Maybe I SHOULD drop all the housework

(CLUNK!) OUCH! My toe!.....

and go limp out and celebrate anyway post haste (a phrase having little to do with the US Postal service, alas!). Having been born between Christmas and New Years and oft been compromised/forgot, I probably deserve a Midsummer Day's Dream, complete with a Midsummer's Day/Night Dream Girl to show up in Laurel MD the next eleven hours and forty five minutes and a winning lottery ticket.
