Who turns, well... something younger than me today, though not sure exactly what, except that she thinks I'm officially old since my B-day in November began a whole new decade of life for me, a decade she has yet to reach, and will continue to have yet to reach for at least another year or 3 or possibly even 4 (not possibly 5 though??). Still, today (I think) does mark yet another milestone in that ongoing progression towards the next decade of life, assuming that I did in fact get her b-day correct (I'm pretty sure it's today), and assuming that she is not dead. Of course, each and every and any day could also be considered a milestone in that progression, though some have to be more important than others if for no other reason than simply to maintain interest in the progression. Perhaps non b-days are more like footstones, or inchstones. (Yeah, I'm in the US BTW, I don't do metric). Of course this assumes a more western world oriented view of time as linear. It's quite possible that from a different perspective this hierarchical division of units of time would not be necessary, nor even desireable, in maintaining one's interest in their own progression towards the next decade of their life, ("next decade" of course being completely arbitrary from this POV anyway).
I will not attempt to guess saramamalana's current perspective of time. I can only speak from my own (a perspective which, as I look to the bottom corner of my screen at the clock and realize that I'm still in this f%$king office and will probably not get home till after 10pm, is quite apparent) when I wish her a happy birthday.
(today is your b-day, right?)
