I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

My birthday was a school holiday when I was a kid (before Monday holidays) so I have pretty much always taken the day off. I continue the tradition.

I like to take my birthday off because I like an unreasonable amount of birthday attention (see tagline; I'm pretty sure it was the last time I had to work on my birthday that led to it). If I'm working on my birthday, I don't get that attention and it makes me sad, or cross. So I take the day off, and mostly don't see much of anyone except family and servers, who do all remember to tell me happy birthday. And my petty little childish heart smiles.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

My birthday is in the summer and the day before a holiday. So, I believe in at least several days of celebrating around my birthday.

I have actual plans this weekend. Yay, social life! (One of my work friends is having a cookout.)

Always Anti-fascist!

I like OkC but there are still messages I get where it's like "Have you met a human?" Sometimes I've chatted with faraway people just for fun/practice.(I have sort of a fling going on with someone I met there, but it's not...a love story, you know? Kind of shallow, actually.) But I didn't do that at college.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Wait, I'm supposed to wear jammies and a tiara on my birthday? Crud, I've been doing it all wrong

That's work attire for me. Well, some days. Difficult authors require the tiara.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I may need to get me a tiara.

WAT. Were you not in the tiara exchange? (Shit, man, I don't even remember when that was.)

(I have known you people for a long-ass time, is what I'm saying.)

Tiaras are pretty cheap online, now. Apparently brides like wearing reproductions of actual royal jewels. (I bought a copy of the Baden Fringe Tiara, it makes the pizza delivery people blink in confusion)

Well, I just found a Jewish vegetarian guy on OK Cupid who's a sci-fi/fantasy fan and says he's mostly dated mathematicians and physicists before, so I pretty much felt compelled to message him and say hi, at least.
