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 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.

'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.

But now we have way more babies and toddlers. Who, on top or raising the cuteness level, bring down the age average considerably.

Now I imagine all the actuaries sitting with big rolls of paper and calculators and trying to balance things out: "SA graduated from college? Already? Wow, OK, JZ has to give birth on Halloween, then. Oh, and Gud's daughter is no longer a toddler, but an actual full girl? Hmm, could you take Holli back to highschool for a couple of years? No? So at least keep Raq abroad so that Mal, with the whole different timezones things, may balance ages out in a bit more complicated way. Oh, and we need a way to factor 17 in, because, well, 17".

I was just thinking that, Theo... Remember when Holli was just a wee bairn?

Also, I don't really remember turning 30, although it wasn't THAT long ago.
