I did not know today was your birthday, Dom, or I would have been very
happy to extend best wishes much earlier.

Have a very Happy Birthday.

We'd have been on time if it weren't for Leap Day.

You get two extra days as compensation, then.

Happy belated birthday!

Well, I didn't know it was your birthday yesterday, either, or I would
have been even more timely.

wish you Happy Birthday for 2013.

Thanks for the post, you saved my life by tickling my brain into
remembering that SWMBO's birthday occurs 4 days from today.

I'll try and not miss yours next year.

Thank you, everyone.

I moved into a new apartment last week and am still getting settled and
unpacked. I'm in the same area (Southwest Philadelphia) but two miles
closer to the airport. I don't hear planes, though. I do hear the trains
on the freight tracks behind the building.

The apartment is fully wheelchair-accessible, unlike the old place, and
much larger. I have a view of a nice little park outside my living-room
window.

I'd point you to the Google Street View for the address, but the picture
dates from when the building was still under construction some four-plus
years ago.

Now that seems way more important than another birthday. Congratulations!

on 5/22/2012, Boron Elgar supposed :
See? We keep expecting Facebook to remind us, and have thrown away all
our yellow stickies.

(I don't remember if Dom was on the list Li'l Ope maintained. He lost
his copy in computer crash, and never seems to have paid attention to
the data mining I demonstrated. My notes from that are on an external
drive that isn't where I'm at this weekend, and on the 21st I was
dealing with end-of-term project panic.)

Besides, birthdays are over-rated. Until you stop having them. Dom,
stick around so we can do better next year.
