Happy Birthday, sweetie.

Hatrack, join me in telling MPH how wonderful he is.

I was a crappy wife today, I was stressed and busy and didn't do anything special for his B-day. But I can do this. [Smile]

Yup, it's true. 30 today. Funny, but I don't feel even a day over 30.

He has said what it means several times. But I will explain again just for you, fallow.

His name is Porter. He speaks Portuguese. In Portuguese, Porter is Porteiro. Say Porteiro. Sounds a bit like "potato", doesn't it? There was a popular child's toy called Mr. Potato Head. Thus we derive: Mr. Porteiro Head.

fallow --

I explained what it means to Eduardo here, as well as many other places over the months.

edit: That wasn't supposed to sound snippy. I don't blame you for not reading every single thread in the hopes of finding the meaning of my name.

I used to make two different kinds of Mr. potato heads when i was younger. One was the teacher, he had glasses and a mustache with a bowler cap. the other was the "cool dude" with no glasses, no mustache, and a backwards baseball cap. Which are you MPH?

Bev -- don't feel too bad about not doing anything special for his b-day. I'm sure he is well aware that you were stuck in the Sodom thread all day yesterday <BIG GRIN>

It is great that you BOTH do Hatrack -- that way you understand the addiction!

Well I can try to pretend that it wasn't totally lame of me that I forgot to tell you happy birthday when we spoke yesterday, even though you TOLD me the day before that it was happening. Can I plead insanity by potty training?

At any rate, Happy Birthday you old son-of-a-gun!

Congratulations, ak, for managing to be very complimentary and good-naturedly insulting in the same line. That's a skill I need to learn...

The real question is this: When do I get to be a cranky old man? I think I'm ready for that challenge.
