Happy Birthday To Me...!

Feb 21, 2005 20:44

I've had a smashing day starting with breakfast in bed, no less than three surprise parties at work, and lots of alcoholic beverages! Who would have thought my friends would make such a to-do over my turning twenty-five ( Read more... )

Happy Birthday!! Twenty five? I never would have guessed it.

Thank you. You never would have guessed I was 25? Interesting, did you think I was an old man, or a fairly a young chap?

It's funny really. I'm roughly the same age as Harry Potter and his friends are supposed to be. Hermione was born in 1979, while Ron and Harry were born in 1980...just as I am.

Thanks again for the birthday wishes.

Hahahaha, no, I think it was because of the maturity and structure of your posts; many of my friends are that age, and none of them are as mature as that. They're still in the video games phase..

Oh yeah that's right! Wow, with the movies and stuff I always forget they wouldn't be teenagers now.

I think most of my maturity is due in part to my being married at such an early age. I found the contentment that most men deny themselves, thinking that partying and leering in singles bars is more enjoyable than sharing one's life with another.

I still do enjoy a video game every now and then though, but the call of the dance floor is much louder, and there are few pleasures in life that compare to that of a night of dancing.

Since they are pairing so many of the kids in Harry Potter together, I'd not be surprised if Harry and Ron are equally as content today (if they've not died in the war).

THREE SURPRISE BIRTHDAY PARTIES? Whoah. Someone's popular!

Thank you. Nah, I am not really that popular, I just think that a number of people wanted to throw a birthday party for me and never spoke on it amongst themselves. On the plus side, I got to eat some chocolate midnight cake, some German chocolate cake, and buttercream cake. Great to have three types of cake.

Happy (late) Birthday!!!!!!

My friends birthday is Friday March 4th. One of my other friends and I are going to make her a cake or cupcakes and give them too her in her first period class. She will be so embarrassed about it but she will love it.

That is go sweet of you to do that for your friend! She'll surely love it, although on your birthday, you may with to take measures against 'retaliation.'

Thank you for the birthday wishes as well.
