It's the year when some poet said we must love or accept the consequences

It is my birthday. I am thirty-two years old. I woke to [livejournal.com profile] derspatchel calculating when I would be thirty-three and a third. (Sometime in February 2015.) I have a card from my parents with a midway motif, a copy of Evangeline Walton's She Walks in Darkness (Etruscan!), and from Rob a framed print of the iconic sign of Lyndell's Bakery, a meeting point between our households when I lived on Dartmouth Street; now we visit it together. It will be the first piece of art we hang in our new home. We are going to spend the afternoon at New England Aquarium and then see if we can catch the restoration of The Caine Mutiny (1954) at the Brattle. It is clear and sunny outside, bright autumn. So far, this day, so good.

Happy birthday! May this year bring you both all good things.

I missed celebrating my 33 1/3 birthday, so I will have to hit 45 extra hard, but that's a ways down the road still. Hopefully by 78 I'll still be DJing, and so will you.

I will be 33 and 1/3 in early January and am looking forward to it! 32 is excellent also. In general, I feel like there is a nice run right about now of numbers I find pleasing in and of themselves - 32 through 34, then a short gap and then 37.

Happy birthday! Lovely weather for it.

Happy birthday to you!

(I love 'Jordan'...the a cappella choral parts have that lovely harshness and it's such a nice contrast with Bellowhead's bonkers instrumentations.)

Happy birthday!

(My 33 1/3 birthday is going to be New Year's Day this upcoming year. I'm trying to figure out what I should do for it.)

Happy birthday! I hope all is going as planned and continues to do so not just for today but for the future as well.

Happy birthday! Generally speaking, 32 is a person's only non-trivial fifth-power year, so I hope it turns out excellent.

Happy Solar Return! May your coming year bring you every happiness.

I celebrated my 33.3333rd this summer. It was much more fun than 25.25. I'm looking forward to 66.66667!
