Yesterday was my birthday! I had kinda forgotten about it. If you had asked me I would have said it was sometime next week.
This is what happens when you get old. Thank you to all who sent me good wishes on Facebook, and yes, I really am 112 years old, just like it says there.
I got two great, slightly non-traditional birthday presents. First, in a couple weeks I am going to Missouri to visit an internet friends whom I have *known* for ~20 years but never met IRL. She lives in or very near the totality zone so I will get to see the eclipse! Another virtual friend will be there, so we can all discover each other’s real faces 🙂 Thanks, sparrow!
The other present is an email I got on my birthday from the director of our local humane society. I had a standing order with her for a pair of black female kittens, preferably littermates, to replace our two boys that disappeared last fall. She has two for me! They were getting spayed yesterday; we will go pick them up today. Kittehs, yay!
Belated happy birthday!
And very cool about getting to meet “imaginary” friends and see the eclipse!
Plus – black kitty girls!! I want to see lots of pictures. Unsurprisingly.
Happy birthday!
I laughed so hard at the FB age… and then thought, yep – I feel like that more days than I care to admit! Have fun on your trip and enjoy the kittehs!!!
Great Birthday gifts – and such an awesome trip. Black kitties rule – we have littermates and one is a black male, Jacob aptly named him “Black” – that kid is so creative 🙂
Happy belated birthday. Age is a state of mind. Some days you feel 15 and others 150.
Hope you have a great rest of the birthday week.
I had a friend with two black kittehs. She named them blackie and anti-blackie. Anti-blackie was always trying to trick her into thinking it was blackie.
Happy belated birthday! And YAY KITTIES!!!
Happy birthday!
I cannot wait!! But we will be in Illinois for the eclipse party. I will message you with address.
Kitties are the best birthday present!
Enjoy the eclipse! My daughter and her family have a fun trip planned to take advantage of the viewing.
Happy happy birthday! Two black kittens are the perfect way to celebrate!
Happy belated birthday! Yes, kittens are great for birthday gifts. We bought our son a Bengal cat one year. When I was a kid, my great aunt had two black cats, Inky and Mokie. Mokie was a large short haired cat that would let me do anything including dress him in doll cloths. I hope your 2 kittens are just as lovable.
Happy Birthday! I had mine about a week ago. No kitties here. Achoo.
