I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Loved my 30th birthday, loved being 30, continuing to love my 30s.

Good luck today, Jesse!

Happy 30th, Dana!

Well, I'm so excited that the beautiful weather is TODAY, while I am stuck inside my office, rather than this weekend. I am truly grateful for resembling a drowned rat while doing all my errands and not being able to sleep all weekend because of fear that the rainwater would push into the basement again. YAY NEW ENGLAND JUNE!!!!

Compassionately intolerant

The week before my 30th birthday, I reconnected with my mother who had abandoned me to my pedophile father 27 years before...and confronted said father. Drama of the highest order.

But on the actual day, my boyfriend of that era executed the most extraordinary treasure hunt all over Pittsburgh. He'd worked on it for months, setting up tasks and events at businesses from Victoria Secret (the manager squealed "Oh, YOU'RE the special one! when I showed up with the little poem I was to recite for my prezzie. The BF was a huge hero.), to a local florist, a funky coffee house and my favorite restaurant. We ended up dancing to 'our song' on the banks of a river at 3am.

The 30's were a time of tremendous change. The 40s have been much more contented and happy.

I got a tattoo. And then wrote about it to everyone.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Which means, I guess, that she's getting some of her payback early.

I need to get one of those dolls.

A fine way to celebrate.

I didn't give a shit about turning 30. Except there were a bunch of external things happening around that time that made me laugh in a dark kind of way because they were the sort of things that should make it a trauma and gave me moments of maybe I should care? But I'm an unbirthday person.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I don't remember what 30 was like. My birthdays tend to be depressing to me as they go pretty unnoticed by folks.

Good luck at the clinic, tommyrot. Hope everything goes swell.

sarameg, a very pleasant unbirthday to you (I've just skipped to your post, so I had to say it. Sorry.)

And now that we have the power here back and I don't have to try to check what's the internet been up to from somebody else's computer that doesn't have my files - yesterday was Stephanie's Ellie's first birthday, too!

Good luck to tommyrot!

I have not yet achieved 30. As suspected, I am young for this board.

I've finally caught up, now that my friends have gone home again, and I'd like to say thanks for the drink ideas. The Band Candy got a good laugh, and turned out quite tasty. I'm glad I've still got the ingredients left. Though, I couldn't find the chocolate martini sticks, so ended up getting these Hershey's Sticks instead. Very yum.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

'Young for this board' used to be a whole lot younger. I don't know what's happening... it's like people are aging or something.

So, that *was* the last one? Odd choice. But I'm not sure he could ever tie up everything anyway. Cash, in re the tattoo, I suspect myself of Too Much Anthro in college.
