Huh.  My husband, brother and aunt (as well as a cousin thrice removed) all have the birthdate of September 22nd.

My mom calls them the 9/22 club.  Now THAT is meh.  :lulz:

Huh.

Now that you say that, that date sounds familiar too... I wonder if that was once my wedding anniversary? Or maybe THAT was my ex-husband's birthday.

I'm pleased that I don't really remember.

September is truly hell in our family because of all the birthdays...and now my husband's turning 40 this month as well.  Oy vey.  It's like Christmas for half the family.  Very annoying.  Which makes this post more appropos to the "post your 1st world problems" thread.

Tell him "Welcome to hell", and tell him not to worry overmuch when random body parts start dropping off.

Meh.  Since he almost kicked the bucket 2 years ago...he's actually HOPING to fall apart, literally.  He keeps that damned diatribe of "if I make it to be ___age," etc. I swear I want to take a frying pan to his head when he does that.

I do that shit all the time, mostly to drive my kids nuts.

I haven't reached that stage in my life...like I said...unless I'm drunk and stupid.  In that order.

Then it's fucking hilarious, and I larf.

In a few more years, you'll learn to act without the alcohol, and rely solely on stupidity.

Hey, it works for me.
