Shamelessly self-indulgent, but hey it's my birthday! I'm allowed to be!
Tony is interstate but nonetheless I feel loved - my Mum and siblings rang at 6am my time (thanks guys), I had parcels waiting for me and two movies on the computer from Tony instructing me on where my present (a tinsy teeny jar of Iranian caviar - because I've always wanted to try some) was hidden.
It's gonna be a good day.

Of course, here your birthday is tomorrow. But it's already tomorrow there. Only you think tomorrow is today. *eyes cross*

Happy Birthday! And I don't even have to cross my eyes...

And I'm now having caviar and hot buttered toast for breakfast - and feeling marvellously indulgent about it, I might add.
Thanks Bob, Rivka and Quid! Posted by Rappin' Ronnie Reagan (Member # 5626) on :

I'm going into shock that you're only 23, though.

Thanks everyone.
I have had a great day.
I went shopping with my mother-in-law for shoes (as my birthday present) and we had a great time.
Then when I got home...
A little background first. I left organising my party a little late - as in last Sunday. It turns out there are about 6 gazillion other parties in Perth tonight, most of them centered around the law school. So most of my friends were busy - and then some cancelled mid-week.
I was left with two people coming, and I was quite upset. No-one seemed to care that much, and with Tony being away I felt a little abandoned.
Anyway, I got over it and organised a dinner party for the two who are coming - and managed to get one more person. So now it's four for home-made pizzas. Yum.
I got home from shopping to find on my doorstep the most enormous and bright bunch of flowers - with yellow tulips - and a bottle of Chandon champagne.
From my friends who can't come tonight.
<-- Very Happy Birthday Girl.

Happy birthday Imo!
... You're under a month older than me. That just can't be right. Posted by Corwin (Member # 5705) on :
Happy birthday, imogen! Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
...and you're sooooo young, too! Glad to hear you had a great birthday. Posted by imogen (Member # 5485) on :
I am not *that* young.
So it turns out the flowers and champagne are from my Mum...
Oh well. I'm still loved.
Posted by Corwin (Member # 5705) on :
Yes, you ARE that young! I'm 23 - well, for a few weeks more - and I'm young.
Edit: You had the 23rd post, I had the 23rd reply! Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
I'm... more than a decade older than you! Yes, you ARE THAT YOUNG! Posted by Corwin (Member # 5705) on :
Phew...
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
Phew?
Posted by Corwin (Member # 5705) on :
Well, I'm relieved. Since you said she's young, it means I'm young too. Always good to get a second opinion... Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
*nods* Of course. You're young, too. Posted by Corwin (Member # 5705) on :
Oh, what the heck, you're young as long as you feel young, anyway!

Remember---While you have to grow older, you don't have to grow up.
Happy Belated B-Day.
