pneHappy birthday ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif){kind=small}
marikochan!
I guess that means it's my birthday, too :) At 30, I feel that I turn officially Old.
Stella gave me two advent calendars with chocolate and the first half of season 7 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer on DVD.
Which was a nice thought, but season 6 might have been better—I've only seen the first season and a half or so, so I don't know half of the storylines (or characters) in later episodes anyway, and S6 is the one with Once More, With Feeling. So I'll try to return or exchange it, either for S6 or possibly for S1 (and then start collecting).
Edit: Returned the DVD—for a refund, since they didn't have the Season 6 DVDs (they had them back-ordered and they should have arrived today, but didn't). So will have to try again another day, or pick something else. Possibly the "Willow" DVD from the "Best of Buffy" series. Mmm, Willow...

The wonders of time zones
Date: Monday, 15 November 2004 21:13 (UTC)Reminds me of... two years ago? When I phoned my sister to congratulate her on both of our birthdays :) Hers is on the 15th, but she was in the States as an au pair then, and I called her just after (my) midnight, when it was about 7 pm over there, and so it was my birthday in Germany and hers in Pennsylvania, both at the same time!

Re: The wonders of time zones
Date: Tuesday, 16 November 2004 05:49 (UTC)My birthday would be on the 15th, then, in California and all points west (since I was born at 08:58 in the morning, which is 23:58 the previous day in Pacific Time).
It does make a certain amount of sense since at the *instant* I was born, it *was* the 15th in, say, Oregon or Hawai`i.

I may have a little family get-together soon... I had it planned for the coming Sunday but will probably end up moving it to the 5th because my sister (who was due two days ago) couldn't promise me she'd be available =) and then we might be able to combine it with the baby's blessing.

Date: Tuesday, 16 November 2004 08:12 (UTC)Of course, 30 isn't old. Heck, 37 isn't even old. (See Monty Python and the Holy Grail, for the scene when King Arthur meets the Constitutional Peasant. "Old woman!" "Man!" "Man, then. Sorry!" "I'm 37!" "What!" "I'm 37, I'm not old!")
Now, when your firstborn, say, graduates from high school; then you're old! According to that, I was officially old just before I turned 37, but then I started way too early.
Anyhow. Enjoy your youth, ya young whippersnapper!

Date: Tuesday, 16 November 2004 21:29 (UTC)I thought I'd feel old, but now that I think about it, I don't feel that much different from, say, last week.
