Mine is on the 26th. I’ll be 45! And I’ve never been happier! I’m in love, I quit smoking, I’ve started exercising (a little…), and I’m remodeling my kitchen. It might even be done in time for my birthday!

I don’t know what my present will be…

My dad’s birthday is October 1st. He’s 45.

I would post in this thread for myself, but I was a day early.

Add me to that list, as I too am a 10/15 baby. And knowing that 8 other people lost out on 10 grand yesterday warms my blackened evil heart

Thanks all for reminding me that I’m getting old, old, old.

Going to be 56 on the 28th.

I’m not sure what Killer has planned for me, but she’ll probably take me out to dinner.

I’ll be 44 on the 20th. I’m spending the next two weeks figuring out how to get of the birthday party my mil always tries to do for me. It’s my birthday dammit! I don’t want a party! I HATE CAKE.

But party on, all youse October babies.

Oh sorry, **MonkeyMule**. From your post, I’d assumed your birthday was yesterday. :smack: Just the latest thing that I’ve read wrongly or misinterpreted these past nine days or so…

**sirtonyh** , yours is just one name in the list. If you don’t like it that much, that’s fine… just don’t give me a sarcastic thanks. (reminds me too much of my own behavior)

**Labdad** , that kind of makes me worry about future years… 🙂 But it’s all good… you relaized your mistake and corrected it when you could.

I share the 10th with John Prine, but he’s 10 years older than me. God gave me 10/10 so I couldn’t screw it up.

\*And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile,  
it don’t cost very much, but it lasts a long while  
Won’t you please tell the man, I didn’t kill anyone,  
no, I’m just trying to have me some fun

well done
