Fuck, I AM 32! When did I turn 32? SHIT, I got old and didn't realize it? That means I'll be 33 this year?? CRAP
I had much the same reaction to 31 last year. I expect this year to be even more WTF-worthy.
Ah, youth.
Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Great. I just tried to watch TV, and I've got no cable signal.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Not that i'm against february holiday - the month needs more of them, especially ones involving chocolate. Just not with the tormented St., pls.
Make your own holiday. EVERY day can be "Because I Want Chocolate And Don't Want To Kowtow To Anyone Else's Idea Of What A Holiday Is And By The Way All The Holiday Symbols Are ASS And Did I Mention I Want Chocolate?" Day.
Hard to fit on a calendar, though. So, rock on. Go get yourself some chocolate today.
I *do* think a company trying to enforce their employee's participation in an holiday that is putatively about romance is a sexual harassment lawsuit waiting to happen, but hey, live dangerously.
Other than that, I got no quarrel with V-Day. I like it. Underdeveloped boy wearing a diaper and shooting people, tortured saint, and all.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
The Other One has persuaded me to watch the rugby with her (by which I mean, I'm playing with social networking while she talks rubbish to which I do not respond). Ireland is losing to France. This is apparently a Bad Thing.
Examples of her wittering at the telly:
"They're fifteen behind. They're not coming back from that."
"O'Gara looks quite a lot like Prince William. No. Harry. No. William. No. I know which one I mean."
"Kick it. Kick it. Kick it. Kick it. Kick it. KILL HIM."
OK then.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I was watching that on BBCAmerica a little while ago!

Cupid's Day, FTW. It's also much nastier, and more Buffista-friendly.(What is about Piven, that he can say things that either border on, or nowadays are, completely nasty and offensive, and it's so lovable?) This is going to sound unFriendly because I'm touched by the response, but please nobody else Friend me on Facebook till I figure out how it'll let me on. Thanks.(it's like terrorism...freedom vs. security...David Simon should write a miniseries.) Happy Cupid's Day, y'all.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Un-Birthdays are great. And there are so many of them!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
364, to be exact! And 365 in leap years!
Even more if your birthday is Feb 29th!
I doubt I would have remembered it was Valentine's Day except that they exchanged Valentines in Dylan's preschool, which he was really excited about. (The kids all made Valentines as their art project for the day, and then the teachers drew names out of a hat to assign gifters and giftees.)
We spent the morning at a 3 year-old's birthday party and I am ZONKED. There were FIVE BILLION CHILDREN there, more or less, and I have no idea how I'm even still awake.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
(dear lord, wait, am I 32? 31? Shit, I don't even know how OLD I am? Fuck, I AM 32! When did I turn 32? SHIT, I got old and didn't realize it? That means I'll be 33 this year?? CRAP)
Hee. Are you in my head, meara? About 5 months before every birthday, I start thinking I'm the age I will be, so by time August rolls around I'll be "Oh, wow, I'll be 39 this year! Damn, I year away from 40! That's so weird! When did that hap...Oh, shit, I'm still 37. I'll be 38 not 39? Or will I BE 37? Uh....2010 minus 1972...carry the... damn, I hate mental math...Ok, I'm still 37!"
This will be my first Vday EVER (and I am, indeed, 37!) that I have had a boyfriend. And not just a BF, a fiance! CRAZY. I think were going out to dinner Sunday, I don't know where. I feel bad because I can't buy him a present cause I have no money, so I'll making him delicious breakfasts today and tomorrow, and will do his laundry, about which I have a pretty staunch "I ain't your mama!"policy -- since I do all the other laundry and cleaning.
I really hope I get some flowers, though. I've never gotten flowers from a guy.
