Hey, they're only a month late...

GNO pics. Click. Here.

(And no, there aren't enough labels.)

Happy Birthday Becky!

More than likely, you've already seen these.

However, since you're so old now, in your senility you've probably forgotten seeing them.

So, enjoy.

Have a great birthday, or day after your birthday, or birthday week, or birthday month, or birthday year, depending on when you see this, or remember seeing it...

Happy Birthday Rachel!

Hope your birthday is more fun than these were: :P

Birthday Necessities

Congratulations Ryan -- you are now older than you were, but younger than you will be!

However, a birthday just isn't a birthday without the following:

Cake, of course

No, not an Asian guy -- the ice cream

Balloon Animals
(It's a snake!)

A giant bouncy castle

A LAN party

Since you just got your license, you need a NEW CAR!
(New to you...)

A food fight

A SHRUBBERY!

How could you pass that up?

Tickets to the Midget Tossing World Championships
(It is real, by the way.)

A blog post that wishes you a happy birthday

(Unfortunately, I'm too poor to give presents, so you're going to have to buy everything yourself. Except for the last one. Happy birthday!! :-)

18 Things I’ve learned in the past year, in no particular order:

Blogs aren’t completely stupid.

“Because I can!” doesn’t always make a good excuse.

Watch out for school zones.

Microwaves are fun (until you have to clean up).

EBay is not fun (unless you enjoy heated email-debates).

If your computer speakers seem very quiet, check to see if you have headphones plugged in before turning your sound all the way up. When you do realize you have headphones plugged in, don't stick them in your ears until you turn your sound back down.

Energy drinks aren’t meant to be consumed in mass quantities on Saturday nights.

The golden Uzi is disappointing.

Snowboards have two bindings for a reason. You also aren’t supposed to snowboard, hike, or walk on sprained ankles for a reason.

The Broncos are horrible.

People who say “Pets are worth the time and money they consume” probably haven’t had a pet recently.

I’m not coordinated enough to do the Hokey Pokey, so if that’s what it’s all about, I’m doomed.

You are supposed to breathe at some point while playing the trumpet.

Some “drivers” enjoy suddenly backing up without looking behind them…

40-gallon watering carts are not meant to be pushed at full speed over bumps.

There’s a good reason why people always say “friends” when asked what they are thankful for -– life wouldn’t be worth living without friends to talk at and make fun of.

Time can tell when you’re having fun, and it intentionally speeds up.

Being OLD isn’t as bad as I thought it would be. (Yes, I have to say "Eh?" every 5 seconds, use a walker, and have my food puréed, but at least I can still collect miniatures and knit booties for my cat.)

2008: A Bedroom Space Odyssey

This afternoon I came home from some errands to find this:

(I'm not going to be able to wake up grumpy for a while.)

Happy Birthday Ben!

In honor of your birthday:(I just needed an excuse to post this picture. Thanks. :-)
