We had a thread a while ago called something like “A Doper a Day?” to see if we could fill a whole calendar. It may even have been before polling. I wish it could’ve been in this format 'cause I think that would be pretty. My mom’s birthday is today, but she is not a Doper. I think. I really hope not. Oy. ---

Not only is mine at the end, but four people in his family have birthdays this month. Two of them we just send cards and money to, but the other two are small children, so I just shipped out some books to them. People must fuck a lot in March. ---

The son of Gavin was born on the 1st, Gavin was born on the 2nd, and Gavin was born on the 3rd. ---

He’s never complained about it. (AFAIR he’s gotten cake even the day after Thanksgiving.) ---

> [@WhyNot](#): > > Harrumph. 😛 > Woo-hoo! Saturday birthday this year, which means it’s far enough from Thanksgiving that we might get CAKE (instead of pumpkin pie with a candle in it)! 😃 Actually I like getting pumpkin pie for my birthday. This year a new friend of mine here in Sweden made one from scratch, never having tried making one before. It was delicious. Especially with a little raspberry jam. ---

A few years ago I was hanging out at a friend’s house on a Friday night. He had gotten his hands on some pumkins of an unusual variety (they had yellow flesh) and was unsure of what to do with them. Then he remembered that my birthday was either coming up or just past, so he got out a cookbook and whipped up a pie. It was awesome!
