Thanks!

Thanks to everyone who offered birthday wishes here and on Facebook and texts and everyplace! I wanted to be low key this year, but I'm having a nice weekend-of-birthday, spending today with bhanesidhe and tomorrow with ali_wildgoose. I did have cake today—two Funny Bones—and even some sparkling wine. My card from Mother has a feature I haven't seen before: a detachable plastic card, suitable for keeping in your wallet, festooned with pink and purple hearts with sentiments under the heading "Daughter." Those of you who have met her shouldn't be surprised.

Oh, and my day started with a text from Barack Obama! I feel so special!

Happy birthday, sweetie-pie! We're facebook friends now! That is 2.5 times more important than being friends in real life!! XD

HA! Thank you, and also thank you for calculating that difference.

now we can play whatever the scrabbulous substitute that folks come up with will be.

I tried to catch you on chat today so I could deliver birthday wishes not in some kind of time-delayed fashion but alas, I have failed.

Happy birthday, sweets. ♥

Not failed, I just wasn't on chat this weekend. Thank you so much!

So what did he say?

Something about a new partner, I don't know, some guy named Joe?

Wow. Not many birthdays start with that. But the elephant card is pretty awesome!

Well, it really started with a hug from Ali around 12:20am, but I have decided to co-opt the text as a birthday greeting to ME.

Thanks sweetie!
