Category: Birthdays

Have been the 53rd birthday of Darlene, my brother’s late ex-wife and mother of two of my nieces and one nephew.

To my cousin Dianne in California, who is 50 today. Haven’t seen her since she was about 15. She was the last one in the family I knew of having really red hair until I saw my grandniece recently. I sometimes see Dianne’s father when I look at Henry, which makes me think of her more than I might otherwise.

To former colleague Leo Argyropoulos.

To my stepsister Laurie, who is 43 today.

To Laurie Swartz, an old friend from high school, without whom I would never have ended up introducing my friend Adam to Laurie’s friend Jean.

My paternal grandfather’s birthday. If he were still with us, he’d be 102 today.

My brother Gary and his ex-wife Noel’s 35th anniversary, if they were still married. I’m sure his three younger kids are just as happy things turned out otherwise…

To my cousin Sandy in Texas, who is 44 today.

To blogger Tink.

To former President Bill Clinton.

To blogger Pascale Soleil.

To blogger offspring Duncan.

To blogger De Doc.

To blogger Phillip Coons.

To attorney Ed Sharkansky.

To my old friend Adam, who like me was born waaay back in 1961, near the dawn of history or something.

To Zack “The hammer is my penis” Whedon, one of the brilliant minds behind Dr. Horrible, which is a Must See. We keep watching it on Hulu. The kids just love it.

To blogger Dax Montana, a big fan of these posts, who seems to be ageless.

To blogger Cam Soper, who is apparently 30 today.

To my cousin Andy’s daughter Casey, who is 3 today.
