Happy birthday Guin! 🙂 I’d give you your well deserved spankings but you’d be begging for more and frankly I already have a pretty full plate today. 🙂 ---

Hey thanks ya’ll but mines not until saturday. I’m so sorry, I didn’t intend to horn in on Guin’s Birthday greetings! I realized as a youngester that lots of other people with birthdays the first week of July had some point at which they realized the fireworks were not for them. Since then I’ve been casually curious about what age people were when they realized all the fuss wasn’t about them! It’s a kind of like finding out about Santa Claus feeling and the Tooth Fairy feeling. **Guinastasia** sorry for the hijack of your thread. I hope your day was great! 🙂 Abby [sub] **Mauvaise** , Thank you for the tip! I’m getting the hang of things.[/sub] ---

Pardon my late arrival… Happy Birthday, Guin! May your neighbors _not_ shoot fireworks in through your windows and burn your house down. (Oh wait, that wish is for ME…) ---

And for me…I live next door to a fucking crackhouse, I think. My neighbors, (whose house is up for sheriff’s auction-thank Invisible Pink Unicron) are the world’s biggest fucking trailer trash in the suburbs. I can’t wait until they’re gone.
