Yep, it’s that time of the month again. Time to celebrate another round of monthly birthdays!

I was going to get **Spoz** to do this thread for me, since it wouldn’t look right if I wished myself a happy birthday… but he’s away from the computer now; oh well, what can you do? Oh wait… he’s back from buying shoes, and says it would be a big waste of time ( 😛 ) to do so (partly because he’s no Straight Dope fiend, and partly because he seriously doesn’t have that much free time)… eh well.  
**HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EVERYONE!!!**

Approximate Phonetic Chinese Version of “Happy Birthday”: (thanks, Nathan!)

“Guung juuk nay fook sow yuen teen tsai, hing hong nay sun sun fie lok. Leen leen doe yao gum yut, suuy doe yao gum jzew, guung hay nay! Guung hay nay!!!”

Approximate English Translation of Above:

“Congrats on this good day of fortune, where we can all gather together. Wishing you a very happy birthday. Every year, this wondrous day arrives; Always, this wondrous time comes. Congratulations! Congratulations!”

Happy birthday to me ( **Flamsterette\_X** ), and to my fellow September babies:

Please post here if your birthday is in September and I’ve missed you, if you have September birthday plans, or simply if you want to wish everyone a happy birthday! 🙂  
I hope all the September babies (including myself, of course) have a happy, fun year… with friendship, love, music, and laughter aplenty! 🆒  
My birthday is on Sept. 17, and I will be **27**. :eek: I don’t know yet what I’m doing for my birthday… probably the usual “go out to eat with friends at a restaurant” deal. Not sure where I’m going… I’ll talk about it with my brother soon! (and send emails to the select few people, hee hee… or maybe post something here like I did last year, who knows?)

I want a birthday thread ON my birthday this year, darn it all… last year, the boards were down on that day! Cheh! 😉 But I still do thank **fizzestothetop** for composing one in my belated honor a couple of days later. 🙂

Aw, 30’s not so bad (I’ll be there a week from today. sigh.) The only think I still have to do is find a tiara to wear to class that day - after all, if you can’t wear a tiara on your 30th birthday, when can you wear one? 😉

Happy Birthday to me too! I’ll be %! on the 18th (yes, I’ve used the right keys, just with the shift key :D). My son’s birthday is the 3rd; he’ll be sixteen and my Dad’s is the 13th–he’ll be 74.

Happy birthday fellow Virgos and Libras.

On September 16th, Mexico celebrates with firecrackers and festivities. they would like for you to believe that it is in celebration of their independence, but I know better. It’s in honor of my birthday. 🙂
