An unremarkable b’day

Thurs, 24 July, is the anniversary of my birth.

XX years ago, and all that….

But this one is no biggie

No cause for big celebration or moving speeches.

No reflection on the landmark achievement of reaching XX.

No reasonĀ  to get excited or melancholic.

Just another year ticking by.

Sort of nice just to have a low-key day.

    Happy anniversary of the date of your birth. I assume by your use of Roman numerals that you have just turned 20?

    It’s officially your birthday and I wanted to come here and wish you a very happy, happy day. Seriously. I hope your low-key day is everything you want it to be and more. :)

    From the mosquitoes, horse flies, deer flies, moose flies and all the other airborne insects that bite and give you itchy welts? Happy Birthday!

    Oh, yeah that’s from me too, the blogger that bites ; )

    I know how young the GT is /-…and I would say it is cause for celebration…but not recommended due to the potentially fatal strain on the heart.

    Oh yeah, Happy Belated Birthday!

    Wait now, it’s today. Happy Birthday!

    Happy Birthday GT…I will raise a glass of unremarkable ale in your honour to mark the occasion!

    May you be overwelmed by peace, prosperity, and booze. Let there be fireworks, hugs, and a buffet in your honor. I remember my xx birthday, but only from the photos taken, and I hope yours is equaly delightful.

    Um, Tonardo? Can you explain to all of us why you’re leaving comments on the blog on her birthday instead of just slobbering all over her?!

    OHMYGOD, I can’t wait to slobber all over you guys - only a couple of weeks to go!

    Low key is fabulous, as long as you got cake or chocolate or both.

    I hope you had a great birthday, dear typist!

    I am so behind on my b’day wishes but since I believe that birthday celebrations last for the entire month as well as the entire time the sun is still in your zodiac sign, I’m in the clear. At least with myself, anyway.

    Many blessings to you!
