Do they celebrate Lincoln's birthday in Australia? Because we don't even celebrate it in the US anymore.
Lord no. We have a day off for the Queen's birthday (about a month after her actual birthday, FWIW).
This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

eta: Hi Billytea! How's things?
Hi Lee! Things are up and down. Youngest brother's moved into the apartment, that's good. We're all in Canberra right now, for my nephew's christening. Haven't seen older brother, but he still manages to cast a shadow over events. Oh, and my neck has worsened after spending the night in a strange bed (a futon, to be precise). That sucks mightily.
How are you going?

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm glad for the good, and hope the bad gets better soon.
I'm good. I should be doing a lot, since I have a huge amount I have to get done this weekend, but I'm not. My back is beginning to feel better, which is good.

Wish me luck gang, I got asked out on a date with a cute guy tonight. Well, it's really more like going to a bar to hang out with him and his friends and then possibly breaking away from the pack to spend the night at my place, but I'm hopeful.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
any Spooks/MI-5 watchers: I missed the first 15 minutes of the episode tonight due to a brain cramp. It's the one whereZoe's on trial. Can you direct me to a recap site or fill in the blank a little?

Well, some of us have really good taste, and that's always easy to recognize. Also, hi!
