To announce that it's my birthday and I'm old [sad] - Warning this will be ranty

[MaryZezItsOnlyJustNovember]

And I want to moan. I'm sitting here with a shitty cold and feeling distinctly miserable.

ds is watching crappy Derren whatsisname which is boring and dd is asleep.

What happened to my life?

[WorraLiberty]

Why would being as old as you make us understand yoda?

[flow4]

Speak like Yoda after 47 we do.

[MaryZezItsOnlyJustNovember]

Thanks, Beardy.

flow, how old are you? Because you are becoming very wise indeed.

[flow4]

(I identify with Yoda. I think it's the wrinkles)

Happy Birthday

In a few years time I will be 50 but both my DCs will have left home by then so I will spend it totally alone.

Wine must be the way to go...oh, and chocolate - why is there no emoticon for chocolate?

[WeAreSix]

Happy birthday!!

[flow4]

Hahahaha, bless you and thank you. But I dunno about that: I make it up as I go along... Or listen to you... :)

I'm 47.
A nothing age.
A prime number, though I'm no longer in my prime. Or maybe not yet.

[MaryZezItsOnlyJustNovember]

Teahouse, ds2 has just presented me with the biggest bar of Galaxy I have ever seen .

He is helping me eat it.

Nearly there, flow. Another three years and you will have made it.

Thanks WeAreSix

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MaryZ, although I should be wary of you as a Scorpio. Most enigmatic with a nasty sting so I understand.

50 is the new 30 btw and

[bigheartedwoman]

47 is nothing!
My nana always said to me "Big, never think you're old when you're young"
I looked at her like
I understand that now!

She was the Lady of Dundalk! xx

[flow4]

Tell DS2 to bugger off buy us ALL chocolate buy TWO bars next time!

Does Galaxy go well dunked in wine?!

[flow4]

Funnys, never listen to horoscopes: they're no match for Scorpios nonsense

And be careful what you say: there are a few of us Scorpios round here! > mwahahahahaha

[bigheartedwoman]

Feck off flow how very dare you??
Kitkats are better!

[flow4]

Hmmmmm... Kitkats... Yes, I can see their absorbent powers may be better...

What about FLAKES and wine?!

[Trills]

Are you being unreasonable?

Why, do you think telling us that it's your birthday is a question of reasonableness?

Actually you probably shouldn't tell people online your birthday, they could use it in dangerous ways.

[Littleblue]

Happy birthday !!!

[bigheartedwoman]

flow now theres an idea for tomorrow night!
Great stuff!

[MrsTerryPratchett]

I'm 40 today!!! Not wine o'clock here yet (overseas) but I will be joining you in about 3 hours.

[CouthyMowEatingBraiiiiinz]

Happy birthday MaryZ. You are only as old as the man you feel.

Or wish to feel...

[flow4]

I have had to give up wine. It has been making me ill. :( :(

There is an alcohol-shaped hole in my soul...

[CouthyMowEatingBraiiiiinz]

And YABU to feel old. Blows raspberry at Trills. 50 isn't old.

[Trills]

If it is your birthday does that mean you will be embracing Christmas fro tomorrow?

[flow4]

Trrrrrrrrrillllllllllllsss...

looks very stern

[MaryZezItsOnlyJustNovember]

'Tis ok Trills, I absolutely accept that I'm being totally unreasonable, on may levels.

I may have to get mnhq to delete this thread so the next time I'm pissed off i can pretend it's my birthday and have all sorts of people be nice to me

Us Scorpios rule da world .

And yes, Galaxy is very good with . Much better than flake, as all the little bits don't fall in.

[MaryZezItsOnlyJustNovember]

And no, sorry Trills, I don't do Christmas until after ds1's birthday, which I'm not going to tell you for security reasons but is in December

It is, in case you haven't noticed STILL FUCKING NOVEMBER.
