My birthday is the 29th. Wonderful anniversary this year - the 27th of May will mark the 3rd year since I moved to England. 3 wonderful years with **Kal**. Yay me 🙂 ---

My birthday is tomorrow, the 2nd. IIRC, the same day as Theodor Hertzel and Baron Manfred “Red Baron” von Richoven. Everybody wish me a happy birthday! ---

Actually, my mom’s birthday is on the 14[sup]th[/sup]… so some years, her birthday and Mother’s Day coincide. Not this year, though! (Mother’s Day is on the 11[sup]th[/sup]) Also, my parents’ anniversary is on the 24[sup]th[/sup]. So go ahead, wish them a happy birthday / anniversary… or not. I happen not to care that much. 😛 F\_X ---

MayDay Baby coming through!! I have reached the ripe old age of 23 now. _sigh_ This years bday is shaping up pretty well - My MIL paid for my lunch yesterday, my FIL is making my requested dinner for the family tonight, my mom and her husband are over for dinner tomorrow (she’s cooking), and we’re going out on Saturday!! So, it’s really more like four days of feasting in Honor of My Birth (took 'em long enough to get it right!!) ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Flamsterette\_X \* > \*\ ***Theios** : Too scatter-brained, eh? Well… my friend Dylan is infamous for not actually remembering his own birthday. He somehow forgets it’s his birthday on Feb. 5… it’s not that he WANTS to forget it, he just does every single year, and multiple times in a day. > > On his birthday in 2002, his brother called him from Toronto… Dylan wondered why he was calling. His brother informed him that it was his birthday! Then his friends called him some time later to make dinner plans. Having already forgotten that it was his birthday, Dylan asked why the dinner plans. Yep… it was his birthday. > > Then this year, he wondered what his mom was doing up so early cooking in the kitchen. He went to ask her, and got back: “It’s your birthday, son… and I’m making your favorite food.” Later on, he forgot his birthday once more… thus, he was surprised when he received birthday ecards from his ex Andrea and our friend Irene. Let’s just say that reminded him it was his birthday! (the birthday card I gave him earlier in the week should have reminded him of his own birthday, too) > > F\_X \*\* Heh… I do this too, I will routinely be very surprised when somebody comes up to me on my birthday and says something like “Happy birthday!” It usually gets an extremely startled look from me, after which I check the date on my computer… do a few calculations in my head, and then say something like “Oh! Thanks!”. I also have a tendency to forget minor holidays… Christmas and Easter, for example. It leads to me being VERY irritated if I run out to the store or something and find them all closed. ---

Having a “border” birthday is neat because I can harp about it in the May birthdays thread without feeling overly guilty. Of course, it’d still bring a smile to my face to see a new birthday thread in June with my name in it. (hey, I’m petty like that) 🙂 ---
