Hey, you were the one who wanted your birthday in the next monthly thread, in May. Or don’t you remember? 😉

Glad to know it made your day… it’s apparently oart of what I do. And if I do say so myself, I’m damn good at it.  
Oh, and thanks for the alert on name change, **drm** … much appreciated!

Agh… this is what I get for posting past 3 AM, when I’m still half-buzzed on a Mango Madness (spiced rum and frozen mango cocktail)… as well as somewhat depressed.

That quote above was supposed to be by **TeleTronOne** … **Skerri** herself hasn’t been around for some time. (or maybe it’s just me…) That’s what I get for using a template for quote tags. Probably trip me up some other time, too. :smack:

And “oart” is NOT a word… I meant “ **part** of what I do…”

Best wishes to all whose birthdays are/were this month. In  
[this post](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=2893547#post2893547) **Q.E.D.** accurately calculated my birthday from the amount of days old I was. It’s June 17 and I’ll be 37.

Ugh. It’s the big **30** for me on June 20. :eek:

I can’t decide how to celebrate: hide in a hole and pretend it’s not happening, or get so drunk that I forget it’s happening.

Unless someone else has a better suggestion?  
Happy birthday to all the other June babies!

Thanks for the birthday wishes. I’ll be 39 on Tuesday the 10th. But this is only the first time for me!

Thanks **Flamster** and **hardy**. June 1st was my 30th too, **Sunshine**. I spent the day sleeping till 2pm, then going to my sister’s house (who, BTW, turned 32 on June 2nd) and visiting my niece and nephew. (My niece BTW turns 3 June 20th, my families full of geminis). After some pizza, I went to the batting cages to knock some balls around, and because I had just hit the big three-oh, I promptly strained my shoulder to the point I couldn’t lift my arm over my head for the next day and a half.

Throwing out your shoulder the day you turn 30 just really makes those gray hairs at the temples glow like they were radioactive, I tell ya.
