36th annual birthday week
Special greetings extended to fellow Birthday Week celebrants. The Week is going to be a fairly low-key one this year. I am alone at home today with cats and chickens and it is cold and rainy outside, and for the past week I've been taking a medicine which makes me feel disgustingly sick - the side effects calm down after a while supposedly but meanwhile it's not really safe to venture too far from the ablutions block.

So that's how you go about writing The Great Novel. Now all I need to find is a cat...
Happy birthday week!
Happy bathday! (Week? I only get a day.) I guess she didn't have a program to stop the cat typing.
I hope that you're feeling better soon, not that "36" will help there
xx
Happy Birdy! And Happy Birdy Awareness Month!
36 is square, and in my (pretty bloody nerdy Weltanschauung) it's hip to be square.

Happy 36th..me too. Today in Oz, tomorrow here...
I get double the oldness.
Plus I'm waking up at 4:30am to drive to Phoenix. The thought of it makes me feel extra old.
Happy birthday,hope you feel better soon and you have something diverting to read while recovering!
I hope the chickens provide plenty of amusing chickenness to divert you from the blurgh.
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday, Laura!

Happy Birthday from me and Happy Birthday from Miss O'Dyne/Bwca/Brownie who is without internet until the 18th of December.

Happy birthday, Laura, hope you're feeling better soon.
Happy birthday and birthweek, fellow Dec 3 birthday-er! xx
Happy Birthday Week! This is an excellent tradition; I would appropriate it, but I already get a fleet of public holidays for my birthday (which falls next year on Good Friday, appropriately enough)...
Better late than not at all: hope your had a wonderful birthday week and that by this stage you are feeling a lot better.
Happy Birthday, Happy Christmas AND HNY. I like to get these things done in bunches!
Please blog again in 2009...
