> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by TeleTronOne \* > \*\*Sounds good. 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) 🙂 \*\* I **could** make you feel guilty, if that’s what you would like… 😉 Seriously though… wait till next month. You **can** wait a month, right? 😃 Hope so! > [@](#): > > _Originally posted by Grelby_ > \*\*\*\*Psssst… Flami, you forgot _me!_ > > May 30, I sneak in just under the wire. > > I’ll be 18. Great googely-moogledy! **Grelby** , that’s coz ya weren’t on the original birthday list… seems to me it should be updated since it’s been about a year, but then I digress. Thanks for the info… it’s been duly noted down. It’ll make my mission much easier… mwahahahaha. 🆒 F\_X ---

Another May baby here! Mine’s on the 9th, along with Billy Joel and Candace Bergen. I could use good vibes for that day-I’m reaching a milestone I never wanted to reach (half a century-how depressing is that?!?), and it’s just as awful being this old as I figured it would be. I haven’t even told my co-workers it’s my birthday-but Dopers are like family! Happy birthday, all you other May Dopers! ---

Per \*\*Flamsterette’s request in this thread:[http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=180974](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=180974), here I am! Mayday birthday for me! My SO (who isn’t registered but is the source of my words in all posts-Linux) also has a birthday this month, on the 8th. We are both 22. And if it counts, two of my cats (who try to type, but never seem able to get the words right) have May birthdays - Midnight is 10 on the 4th and Bree is 1 on the 10th. Oh, and the dog was born on the 31st, as was my SOs grandfather…and half his aunts and cousins are also May babies. A wonderful birthday month! ---
