Take the Day Off!
I'm declaring this day to be a National Holiday!
Why? Because it's MY BIRTHDAY!!!
This was taken on my sixth birthday...a whopping 30 (gasp!) years ago, which accounts for the poor scan quality. Look, even back then I was wearing red. Look how cute I am in my Toughskins overalls!
For the math majors out there, yes, I am 36 years old today.
So take the day off, close the banks, stop the mail!
Here's a notable event from February 17:
The world's first submarine, H.L. Hunley, mysteriously sinks, killing crew -- Feb. 17, 1864
Ponder that!
As for big plans today, I have none. I'm going to bake my birthday cake, a Boston Creme Pie to be specific.
Who's taking me out for drinks?????

A toast to you, my friend! Happy Birthday and many, many more!! 36 has always been my favorite number. It's the last birthday I claimed! Now I'm 36 with several years of experience!

Posted by: junebee at February 17, 2006 10:32 AMHappy Birthday! I bake a Boston Cream Pie every year for the hubby. It is his favorite. How do you make yours?? I have seen different ways, so I was just curious. Hope you have a good day!

Posted by: Sadie at February 17, 2006 04:29 PMHappy B-Day, Vic! Is it me or is every birthday after 30 a huge bummer. I'm heading for 39 myself this May (for the first time, that is). ;-)

Happy Belated Birthday, sorry I missed it, I was out sick Friday.
Here's hoping you were generously plied with the adult libations of your chice and that as much merriment and/or chaos as you hoped for ensued.
