Even though I'm getting old, and I'll never get everything done, I still like my birthday. A day in the summer when I can just goof off. And of course, I stretch it out as much as possible.
Yesterday, however, was thoroughly productive. I think I did ok at the auditions for "Merry Wives," although I may not have a schedule that will sufficiently allow participation. Maybe in the spring.
Right now, I'm redyeing my clothes for Netherworld. I'm going to hang up a wall hanging that's been sitting waiting for a home for several months, and I'm going to try to work on the stuff in the shed. It's been so humid that a mere 86 degrees is unbearable.

Date: 2007-08-01 12:54 am (UTC)It's not close to Christmas AT ALL, so people give you presents. And summer holidays: You can get plenty of people to come to your party, particularly in the dog days. Pool parties, water parks, amusement parks.
Messy food. Watermelon, homemade ice cream.
Nobody makes the whole class sing happy birthday to you because there's no school.
Does that answer?
