It's my birthday and I can demand validation from the Internets if I want to.

I am officially declaring tomorrow Birthday 2.0 because today was simply unacceptable. Instead of featuring high tea and yarn fumes with girlunravelled, as it was supposed to, it featured rain, a full day of running myself ragged at work because I was so far behind from being sick, slogging through the rain at lunch to buy my own birthday cupcakes because no one else was going to, no birthday lunch from the boss (though she did give me flowers, which was nice), a crapton of identical Facebook messages, mostly from people I barely know, slogging through more rain to get to class, then slogging back home again to an apartment with no food and my cat, who was admittedly very vocal in her joy at seeing me.

Birthday 2.0, guys. I can haz it?

2008 can officially bite me. Plz to validate my existence, Internets.

It's your birthday. I say, like Lincoln, you get to declare its Observed date for whenever the hell you want.

So please tell me what day I should actually wish you Happy Birthday on. Sadly, I'm not sure I will be able to make Saturday, but I can certainly do it next Monday, with the cocoa of your choice? =)

Many Happy Returns, all the same.

It's your birthday! Select an S&S book, and it is yours!

Also, we should hang out. Just saying.

Yes, 2008 sucked. (I considered sending a Facebook message, but feared to be one of the aforementioned people.)

/appropriate icon is appropriate.

Oh dear! I hope Birthday 2.0 is better. Sometimes the actual day has too much pressure. But the Facebook messages are always better than no messages at all!

Happy Birthday, you! This year has seemed to suck mostly for everyone. I'm only now getting off that hump and want to share the happiness with you in any way you wish!

The Birthday Wish, man, remember that ol' thing?

What does that sassy little heart of yours desire?

Dude, having a single birthday is SO 2006. All the cool kids indulge in a birthday week - preferably a birthday MONTH.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
