My girlfriend / partner / Significant-Other / love-of-my-life Diane,
whom I met in this newsgroup a little under a year ago, is
celebrating her birthday today. The fact that I have just let the
cat out of the bag has made her mad at me, I'm sure. However, I am
not going to turn mad into irate by telling you how many years she's
been on this rock. But she's not as young as she used to be ...
hee-hee-hee-hee-hee <VBG>. Happy birthday again sweetheart.
You're the best thing to happen to me. Better than quitting
smoking, better than anything. I love you.

Eddie

I told everyone last year that I was 35. I'm sure they can do the math.
Don't worry folks, after a few years I'll get him beat into shape and stop him
from making silly OT posts to the group. <g>.

effects of smoking ;-)

Thank you Carolina - and btw - thou shalt not blame Diane for thy eating
excesses. *I'm* not even getting to pig out this birthday, unless you count
the waffles with fresh strawberries and whipped cream and powdered sugar... ;-)

Technically, it's my second birthday as a non-smoker. But during the first
one (last year) I was too manic to keep track of much of anything, so this is
the first one as a sane (whatever that means) non-smoker.

Thank you, Liz :-)

Thought I replied to this. All this bouncing between newsreaders.
Anyway:

Happy Birthday! 36 is a good age. I think you should celebrate with
36 pints of Ben & Jerry's. Well, maybe one big spoonful from each one
or something. Hell, it's your b-day, whatever works. ;)
