Oh, right.  With all the LD stuff and everything else going on I forgot to write about my birthday, which happened last week.  As is the tradition now, I disabled FB wall/timeline posting and prospered greatly.  It was a bit of a weird bday this year to be honest, as I was taking the next day off for LD and thus working pretty hard at work to finish a bunch of things up.  Nevertheless, it was really nice for people to reach out to me directly.  IMHO, it's something that we should try to do for each other more often, not just once a year.  I got a few letters too, which was quite nice.
