Happy Birthday to Me and Happy Festivus to You

Today is my birthday. I feel perpetually 27, and yet that is not my actual age.

A friend pointed out today that my birthday falls on Festivus, the holiday created by the Seinfeld show. I told him I think it's the other way around - Festivus falls on my birthday. After all, I've been having birthdays longer than Festivus has existed, so I'm claiming December 23.

But, I'll share. And however you choose to celebrate Festivus is cool. If it happens to be with a cake with my name on it, be sure and save me a piece.

Have a Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and all around jolly time!

Happy Birthday, Patsy! Hope you had a day filled with all your favorite things. My Mom's birthday is Christmas Eve. We try not to have it get lost in the shuffle of Christmas.
Merry Christmas to you!

Thanks, Kim... Happy Birthday to your mom today! I have a friend who's birthday is Christmas. I don't worry too much about it. One thing is no one can say they haven't had time to go shopping when your birthday is this close to Christmas. :) Have a wonderful holiday!

No wonder I have felt like claiming you as a daughter! My eldest was born on Christmas Eve. I won't tell you how many years ago. She'd have my head. Three of my four children were born between December 24 and January 12.

Happy belated birthday, dear ersatz daughter.
