wow - having the same bd as st francis, ts elliot, gershwin, and sarah conner (aka linda)... but, are you sure she's older than you????
but how could you have missed from your list heidigger!!
I can't believe after all this time a date is set! I'm holding all three days free!!! The planets align! We're watching VoTD and drinkin' cocktails! This is great news! (everyone make sure the batteries in your cameras and 'corders are well-charged!)
(and you BET your sweet JT-ass I want some Mr. Rogers stories! AWESOME!)
Mouse - Actually Linda and I are exactly the same age. Sorry to miss Heidigger.
Joy - Can't wait to meet you! Manhattan will never be the same.
aw I thought you were a monkey like sarah/linda. sound familiar?????
The spunky Monkey is the original party animal! Charming and energetic, Monkeys crave fun, activity and stimulation. They truly know how to have a good time and can often be seen swinging from one group of friends to another, attracting a motley crew in the process. Always upbeat, they are considered minor celebrities in their circle thanks to their sparkling wit and that rapier-sharp mind. Perhaps surprisingly, Monkeys are also good listeners and tackle complicated situations with ease. This Sign's natural curiosity lends it the desire to become knowledgeable on a broad range of topics. Monkeys have a show-off side that loves nothing more than to dazzle their pals with all they know.
The Monkey tends to be rather accident-prone due to a certain lack of very high morals. This Sign's first interest is pursuing its own pleasure; this is not a malicious interest, it's just the way the Monkey is. However, this kind of carefree self-involvement can lead to all kinds of scrapes. In love, the Monkey makes a fun, exciting lover -- but one that may have the potential to stray romantically. The good news is, the Monkey’s glib manner and witty repartee can often get this Sign out of a scrape. Perhaps not everyone will be won over by the Monkey -- but do you think the Monkey really cares? The Monkey's world, full of devil-may-care energy and revelry, isn't for everyone. Remember, though, it's not that this Sign is mean; it might just be a bit too curious for its own good. Monkeys often feel the need to try everything at least once, which can make for a merry-go-round of relationships.
The Monkey's love of self-indulgence can also lead to other types of trouble. This Sign may have limited self-control concerning food, alcohol and other pleasurable activities. It's party time all the time for the Monkey, yet when it leads to a monster hangover or a shattered heart (generally someone else's, not theirs), this Sign might actually show a touch of remorse. They won't flat-out admit the error of their ways, but at least they'll pull back and try to tone things down -- for a while.
Monkeys must try to learn to think of others ahead of themselves, at least some of the time. This Sign's world will be more complete once it realizes the world doesn't revolve around it.
What distinguished company you do keep.
And what fabulous company you will keep on this year's anniversary! I'll get Ed/circleinasquare to jump out of a cake.
Mouse - I never knew you knew that much about monkeys!
Jill - Cake jumpers always make my day.
be sure to look up joe.my.god.
CFB - He's already been alerted. Now I need to host a local meet up event.
I have the date saved and look forward to meeting you. I hope we can secure some time at Joy's for some VOTD viewing.
Happy Birthday. How cool to share it with ONJ.
