See, I had this whole thematic plan for the "land of a thousand birthdays" thing. I have all these compadres with birthdays all around the same time (since I've rarely met a Scorpio I didn't like), and I was going to have a birthday post for each one of them, thereby making sense of the "land of a thousand birthdays" thing. The problem is, I have the attention span of lint, and rarely finish anything. My home, my desk, my head, my life - all littered with unfinished projects, unfinished thoughts. But dammit, this one I intend to finish! So Happy Belated Birthday to:

Jeff: whom many have seen naked
Lea: who is lovely and charming
Mick: who transcended the dubious circumstances of our acquaintance and turned out to be a very cool and complex chick
Cristy: who uses even bigger words than I do, and more of them (believe it!)
Bob: who is my favorite uncle, despite (or maybe because of) his being a bit of a shit
and
An Ex: who shall remain nameless and fondly remembered

There! now my conscience is clean....er.
