I Declare: Happy Birthdays All Around!

August 29th, 2005 · Posted in Uncategorized ·

So today is the day of birth for two people who have influenced my life.

First (and most importantly) is the woman I share my life with. Jennifer, turning a grand old 22 years today. I love you Jennifer, and I hope you have a wonderful day (I hope Mat starts behaving for you too…) I’ll see you tonight beautiful.

Secondly, Andy, the guy I used to sit next to at work. Happy 27th birthday dude (oh, and I have your copy of Pikmin safely hidden at work in my drawer if you come visit again and I’m not around). Andy is a good one for discussing deep thoughts with. Thoughts involving ninjas, pirates, giant robots with energy swords, and politics. Although I disagree with him on some (many…) things, he is still a great person to nut things out with.

Lastly, the late Chris Wich, who would have been celebrating his 24th birthday today. You are missed, Chris. Update: (I have been informed that Chris’ birthday was the 30th of August, not the 29th. Sorry.)

RodeoClown: wishes it was his birthday also (because then he’d have two sets of birthday presents each year)!

Yay birthdays!! Happy Birthday Jen and happy birthday to Michael Jackson, Lenny Henry and Nigel Mansell.

Yeah… we had fun at that desk. I do so love discussing things. Even when it’s clear that people have diametrically opossed opinions. It’s just good fun. Yay for everyone and their opinions!

Happy birthday to your wife. She looks like a lovely girl - does she have a sister? ;-)

Happy birthday to Andy as well - I imagine I would disagree with him on absolutely everything as well. But the world would be boring if everyone agreed…

She does have a sister, who is turning 21 next year.

Judging by your comments re The Boyz, I’m guessing she’s a little too young for you.

Jen is indeed a lovely girl. The most lovely one I know (plus she’s cute). I’m a blessed man.

Whoa! Just found out that markdown works in the comments too. Cool.

If you want to do italics, put ‘_’ around the text. If you want bold then ‘**’ around the text should work.

My last g/f was 21. A very mature 21 - but it was a little young… We figured out I had bought my first rock album before she was born… ;-)

Chris’ birthday was the 30th of august, not the 29th.

just so you know for next year’s empty gesture.

Thank you for the correction Chris’ friend. I honestly thought it was the 29th.

How can you make any gesture meaningful for someone who is dead? (And yes, I do actually miss him a lot, although more the Chris I remember from school than the Chris he turned into around the time he left).

She watched Mat while we went out for dinner. So, yes, he lent us his wife ;) .
