Wednesday's child

Born on a wednesday, 45 years ago today! I love my birthday!

Full of woe you know; apparently Wednesday was Woden's day, and it was a day of wisdom...and woe natch, cos understanding brought sorrow/a deep abiding cynicism,/visions of ragnarok. I am very wise and very woeful, as you can tell. I am also a little bubbling fountain of Bucks Fizz right now. My love bought me champagne and chocolates, a very classy looking vase and some crazy-gorgeous azanias which I planted this morning.

Got the strangest life gifts this last year;

A dream come true
A journey to the heart of learning and beauty
Frippery, fun, folly and other f's.
And the strangest gift of all - the love of my job. I never thought to see the day when what I do would make me so happy every day. I was offered a show tonight, and were I not already looking forward to some very dear company, I would have taken it, cos few things delight me more than my work. Except my other work. Come the 20th I will be taking time off to continue with my writing, a ridiculous piece which pleases me immensely. How did such an inveterate fool get this funky stuff?

One more present of course; I get so much support from worlds visible and invisible, and if you are reading this, chances are you're a part of that, so cheers! Bucks Fizz has nothing to do with it, and neither does this (occasional) pig of a medium.* I'm happy. Thank you for being here:-)


*I mean lj of course, not me!

Hippo Burpday!

I am also a Woden's Day child - but in August, and a different year.

But in your year:

Yesterday, July 10 - AT&T's Telstar, the world's first commercial communications satellite, is launched into orbit, and activated the next day.

Tomorrow, July 12 - The Rolling Stones make their debut at London's Marquee Club, Number 165 Oxford Street, opening for Long John Baldry.

Remember not to store the chocolates in the vase...

Many happy returns Woden-woman. I'm delighted to hear you've found things that bring you so much happiness. Long may they continue.
