"Do people actually go around telling people, 'hey, today's my birthday'?" asks my roommate.

[hmpf]

Well, I don't know about anyone else, but I do.

I'm thirty today. Got a shiny new flatscreen monitor for my birthday present, since my old (seven year old) monitor died last week. So much more space on my desk!

It's also my friend Kiki's birthday. She may be reading this, so: Happy Birthday to you, too! :-)

Very happy birthday wishes going out to you! And a big YAY for the new monitor...I got a digital flat panel with the desktop system I bought last November, and after years of working on a laptop, it sure rocked my world :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

We both know all the BEST people are born in August. ;) I go around telling EVERYONE it's my birthday. Just, cos, you know, that's the one day I can be an attention whore and no one can blame me, so I suggest you do the same.

I bet thirty will be a good year for you. If it isn't, I'll kick its ass.

Happy Birthday! I'd sing but then we already know that's a bad plan ;)

I'm not really sure about the exact words, so'll just paraphrase:

The 30th birthday marks the end of youth and the begin of the slow march into middle age

(Julian Bashir, "Distant Voices")

All the best wishes! Have a great birthday and don't take things to seriously ;-)

I'm very grateful if people go around and tell people it's their birthday. Otherwise I'd forget them all. So thank you for reminding me and: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Happy Birthday! :-)

(seconding seti_drd - I often forget about birthdays, it's nice if people help me not to... *g*)

Happy birthday!

I had intended to do something for you, but I wasn't sure what, so I apologise for not actually doing anything. I did wonder about the Methos and the ninja story, but since I haven't watched those eps of HL and my writing inspiration is lacking right now, that wasn't such a good idea.

Anyway, in answer to your roommate's question, yes and no. I tend to start telling people when my birthday is about a month before it happens. And then forget on the day and people are all surprised (mainly because they all forgot. LOL).
