I’m 29 on the 7th. Nothing special planned but I’m hoping for surround sound.

Cool. One of those rare threads where someone mentions me and a reply isn’t involved.

My birthday is on the 14th. I’ll be 29.

I have no idea what the hell I will be doing that day.

**swampbear** : nice job! Can you come and sing for my friend’s wedding in a few months? 😃

**//\etalhea|)**, be careful about the huge fake boob thing. You never know what’ll happen to the people you wish that for.

**Stuffy** , I think it has to do with that Straight Dope birthday thread we had a few months back.

**Alexxandra** : sounds like a great way to relieve monotony, at any rate! 😃

Happy birthday to everyone who was born in October! 🙂

(I should add that I have a friend whom we call “Devil-Boy.” Reason? He was born two days before Halloween. Besides, he’s kind of weirdly crazy, but in a most lovable way.)

I’ll be 29 and 48 months on October 31st. Still in denial about turning 30 and lurching from one mid life crisis to the next. Not sure what I’m going to be doing but will most likely involve alcohol and mass genocide of my brain cells in the hope of avoiding the entire experience.

Another October 12th birthday here. I don’t think I’ll do anything special, maybe go out and get a beer or something. I’m not going to have any money. I’ll be 22, btw.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EVERYONE!!

Since she hasn’t yet registered for her SDMB i.d., it is my duty to let y’all know that the [**Tygr Cub**](http://fff.fathom.org/forums/attachment.php?s=&postid=176948) will be celebrating her oneth birthday on October 22. 🆒

There must be something mystical about October 15th & Dopers… It’s my birthday too, I’ll be 26. (I’ll be AFK to celebrate it though).

🙂 Happy Birthday Dopers!

My daughter’s birthday is Oct 15 as well. She’ll be six. Still kind of young to be a Doper…

Esprix! I forgot we have the same birthday!

You know, October 8th must have some special quality that it imparts to people born on that day… 😉

Happy birthday, fellow October people!

My birthday is October 31st, so you can all turn green with envy now. Having a birthday on Halloween is so cool, lemme tell ya. You don’t have to be jealous that I’ll be 29, though. 😛

Ah, but what a Doper she will be when the time comes, especially with her October 15th mysticism & all! 😃

Ah…and I was born on the 20th of October. I’ll be nineteen, the first birthday in a while where you don’t get anything special. At 15, you get a driving permit. 16, you get a license. 17, you get to see “r” rated movies and get drafted, and get executed (in Texas) for crimes. 18 is a whopper. Vote, no longer a minor, smoke, sex, porn, etc. Nineteen is kind of a downer. ☹

Apparently, nobody else who has posted has this birthday. I’m special! 🙂

It is a good birthday month, as my sometimes-poster twin **Jonmarzie** shares this birthday. (Also turning 19).

Happy birthday from here in Washington, y’all! :D:D:D

Today was my 25th birffday. Well, I guess not today anymore, technically, but the 2nd. Same as Gandhi.

In celebration, I had sushi and 25-year-old Macallan scotch. Lovely.

And because a young man should do new things on his birffday, I tried eel (tasty, actually) and Laphroaig (also tasty). I did not try them at the same time.

I’ll be 21 on October 10th, I’d appreciate any ideas on what to do, probably just get really really drunk, my roomate is a bartender at a bar on Sunset called Miyagi’s, kinda a strange crowd but the alcohol is all the same right? I recently went to Vegas for my buddies 21st so I don’t think I’ll be going again. Happy Birthday to all the others
