It’s Rue DeDay’s birthday! Hooray for our favourite uncle story teller, monday morning poster, and big bundle of loveliness we know as Rue.
(In case you have somehow missed Rue’s stories, you can see a bunch of them at Teemings Extra)
I hope you have a fabulous day and get lots of presents and snogs. Here is a special birthday kiss for you: MWAH.
Dang, Francesca, great minds think alike! You beat me by a minute!
Hope you don’t mind if I toss some confetti in your thread also! 
Yay. Happy Birthday, Rue!
FCM - we can share in the jollity
woohoo, hope Katcha, Soupa and the little woman have something special in mind for ya.
May you have th’ happiest of birthdays, Rue. You certainly deserve such, for bein’ one of the brightest lights of this board.
Many happy returns of th’ day, mate. 
Happy B-Day Rue!
Hap Hap Happy Birthday Rue!
Snappy hurfday, Ruebaby!
Don’t party too hard. I’m not bailing you out again.
Happy Birthday, Uncle Rue!
My friends, I’m touched. And in the good, emotional way, not like now I’ll have to go down to the police station and fill out a report.
You love me! You really do! (Now I have to go blow my nose. I’m getting all misty.)
Love you all back.
-Rue.
happy Birthday Bub!
I came back just in time!
I give you my highest compliment:
you.
rock.
aw yeah. BABY!!!
I hope 25 is a good year for you. 
Well, crap. Do you know what this means?
It means I’m a complete jerk, that’s what it means.
I’ve made a few snide comments to Rue about him being a “youngster,” and now it turns out that he’s about a month and a half older than I am. Crap.
Yep, I’m a jerk.
Happy Birthday, old-timer.
<ahem> clearing throat <ahem>

Happy Birthday, RUE!!!
In your honor, I called in sick for work today, and spent the whole day in bed on top of a heating pad.
(This really fits in well with my schedule, as I really screwed my back up on Saturday, and had been planning on spending the day in bed anyways… In fact, I’m going to call in sick again tomorrow, and maybe the next day in your honor as well! I’ll do it everyday until I can walk to the bathroom to pee instead of doing a sideways worm-dance on the floor, whimpering the entire distance, to pee down the drain when I get there because I can’t stand up. Happy birthday, Rue!)
Oh! And Happy B’Day to Vanilla as well!
[sup]I’m scrunching back to the bed now, dragging my heating pad between my toes… owie![/sup]
Happy Birthday Rue!
If anybody wants to chip in I can run down to Servati’s this afternoon and get a cake or pie, then drive cross town and whack Rue in the face with it. It’s really not that far out of my way, particularly if I go into work.
PS to Exgineer: I think that 25 thing was a joke (note the winky). My guess is that he’s 29 again.
Shibb, tempting as your offer is, I find myself a little short of cash. Could you just go by his house and dance on his front lawn so his dog goes crazy and barks like mad and drives Rue whacko??
No, forget I said that. I couldn’t wish that on my bestest friend in the whole SDMB.
Tho it would be kinda funny…
Nah, Shibb.
I know the old fart is 35 now, but I’m still a sprightly 34.
I just seem like an obnoxious, smart-alecky kid.
I’m going to have to work on inserting some crotchety-old-grump stuffiness into these things.
BTW - for a truly spectacular pie-in-the face experience, I recommend banana creme. Send me the bill.
Servatii’s isn’t really a banana creme kind of place, but I can probably find one at Krogers… or maybe a nice buttercream frosted cake right in the mug.
