So, it is party time again, folks!

[wiseheart]

Each year this time, we launch my virtual birthday party, which starts on October 1 and ends on October 9 at midnight, sharp. The goals of the party are to post as many comments and collapse as many threads as possible, on as many new pages as we can. It is always great fun, as you can see if you check out the similar entries of the last few years.

This year, I'll also throw the real party at mid-time - and post the recipes of all the food that will be there for you, so that you can all participate if you want to. Virtual food has no calories.

Fandom-related discussions are as welcome as the ones about coffee or chocolate (just to name a few favourites from previous years), and, of course, pictures and recipes of birthday cakes. ;)

So, drop by, tell your story, post your pics or silly poems, ask questions you always wanted to ask and have a good time!

Soledad, in excited expectation




Oh, and by the way, to provide birthday gifts hobbit-style, I've got a revived story and a Kansas 2 update for you.

Enjoy!

Thanks again for a lovely party, wiseheart! I hope you have enjoyed your virtual birthday party as much as I have. Best wishes for a lovely year ahead, with lots of fun lj-commenting and craft projects.

Now I really must get off to bed; another nine am lecture for me in the morning...

In terms of vernacular English usage, Chambers is arguably better, and it is certainly more precise for scientific usage -- I like having the two definitions side by side.

The online OED is really fantastic if you are interested in etymology, date of first use or history of different meanings -- are you a member of a local public library? I don't know whether it extends to NI, but in England one can get access to the online OED via a library card login.

I try to post at least a couple of times a month, but what with the split between DW & LJ, and my increasing care to put most personal content behind filters, I find I get fewer & fewer comments, and hardly any real discussions. Sigh.

Tail end Charlie, stopping by late, to wish you a Very Happy Birthday! Sorry I wasn't around the party much this year, real life is being a pain. Looks like it was a great one though!

So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! *hugs*



Here's to many more, and may the coming year bring you everything you wish for!

I used to make all sorts of stars using these same elements, only of transparent paper. Some had up to 32 parts. They look great as window ornaments.

We're heading down to the sea again for a few days, so I may not have much online access and may miss the finale...

So, here's wishing you a happy birthday, with many more to be enjoyed in good health, wealth and wisdom! [hugs]

I feel the same. I've loved cats since early childhood, but it was a cat the neighbours owned when I was in my teens that started my love of gingers.

It's not midnight here yet :) So a last chance to wish you a very happy Birthday, and much joy and good writing in the coming year!

You're welcome! Sorry I couldn't join in more, but life... Meh! (We still have no heating.)
