    Happpppppy Birthday!!! Have a wonderful day filled with bunnies and flowers and a trail of chirping bluebirds that follow you wherever you go. And while we’re at it, rainbows of unicorn piss.

    On a sadder note, I’ve been missing you over at Mamapop…

    Happy birthday, dude. Now that you’re 35 you may as well sign on as a server at Bahama Breeze. It’s all downhill from here.

    Nothing wrong with a little grey.

    Or a whole lot of grey, in my case.

    Happy, happy.

    You look a bit like Grissom from CSI in that pic. But that’s not a bad thing. Grissom is kinda hot. So it’s all good!

    Gray hair is nothing! You’ll freak out the day you discover your first gray pube.

    And to be honest, I didn’t freak out as much that day as the other people on the elevator did.

    (Rimshot!)

    Happy Birthday Fucker!

    35 is awesome. Besides how can you get presents if you stop counting birthdays? It’s all about the presents, dude.

    At least you got me to click through. Obvs, your face unreflected has ungrey hairs. And unless you’re a character in a Stephen King novel, you don’t look a day over 35! :)

    I had professional pictures of me with added gray to try and look older for my firm website, but they looked like Bill Clinton, I was told, so I didn’t use them.

    Oh yeah, have a happy day.

    Happy birthday, BTW!

    I wish I would have learned to stop counting birthdays 13 years ago. Then you and I would be the same age.

    Happy Birthday, Adam! I had to climb on the bandwagon along with everyone else and wish you a happy one. Now I think I broke the bandwagon. Woops. My bad. BTW, you stop counting birthdays when you’re dead. Not a second before. You’re welcome. The gray is sexy so you’ve got that to look forward to when/if it ever becomes *real*.

    I realized that I forgot to update my blog about me age to 35 this year. Am just waiting till April to update it to 36. So I get to be 34 for an extra year because I am lazy. And my mother said I would never get anywhere for being lazy!

    HAHA. Showed her.

    Happy Birthday, a little late. I meant to write earlier but, well. LAZY. See above.

    yesterday was my 40th – I’ve decided I’m not going to color my red hair – there are a few grays creeping in already, but I’m not going to get to the point of having roots just to try and keep up.

    Cheers and a happy belated birthday.
