Happy Birthday Ben! We all miss you at Apple!
Today is the first birthday without my co-worker and comrade Ben Rasberry. It’s really a bummer that he didn’t live to see the local Stars win the Calder Cup or hang out with us in our new super-duper cafeteria. I … Continue reading
Happy Birthday Mark!
This year I remembered to get him a card and gift ahead of time! Since he has ditched his physical music collection, I scored him some cards to download stuff he’s looking forward to getting, namely singles from a new … Continue reading
Happy Birthday Alaire
Dr. Alaire celebrates her own private holiday. Since the June cat sitting period begins today, it must be so she can visit the grand-daughters over in San Francisco. I would call my guess an educated attempt because ski season ended … Continue reading
Happy Birthday Anna!
The only true Maggi niece celebrates today. I use the adjective in italics due to her being my brother’s daughter. There are the daughters of cousins I just call niece for simplicity, I have no idea how to do that cousins-removed … Continue reading
Happy 110th Birthday to Grandpa
It would’ve been pretty cool if he made it this far. He loved technology and I think all the miniaturization we have now would blow his mind.
Happy Birthday to Kris and Jeremy!
Yesterday, Kris celebrated her birthday. I love this lady (like an aunt) because she was my patron to put me back in Austin. The city which has become my adopted home and she helped me return after a string of disastrous events. … Continue reading
Happy Birthday Anje
My favorite sister-in-law celebrates whatever. I only know she’s younger but a trooper to wrangle three boys, especially when two must be home-schooled. Appears that education isn’t a high priority in Qatar for accommodating foreigners. Anje has a degree in … Continue reading
Happy belated birthday to the Hoser
This failure on my part is OK. Next weekend I will be celebrating the Marquette version in Las Vegas. A fitting way to commemorate the 25th birthday recognition of us being friends. Although I’m about a year older, José’s came up … Continue reading
Happy (belated) 108th birthday to Grandma
Just like a greeting card, I missed the exact date for my maternal grandmother’s birthday. It would’ve been number 108 if she were alive. Given her stubbornness, I think Grandma had good odds to make it a century-plus had she … Continue reading
Happy 15th birthday Miette
Stray cats weaseling their way into my heart (and home) didn’t begin with Miette, it was Mongo but this little stinker was too sweet to give up for adoption. Originally I was going to name her Lily to keep the Blazing … Continue reading
Happy Birthday E! As in Ethan, not the network
It’s not too late to wish my first ’98 friend in Austin a happy birthday plus this is valid for an additional two hours thanks to him living on the West Coast! I’m hoping the girls will have made him … Continue reading
Belated birthday to Nelson!
A big virtual shout out to a friend who has stuck by me with his regular phone calls for over 22 years! Nelson is either a true friend or a masochist, I doubt both. Well, he is the biggest Star Trek fan … Continue reading
Happy Birthday Brian!
My kid brother lives on the West Coast now so at least this is valid for more than a couple hours unlike the Central Zone. His birthday was often a form of Spring Break when we were growing up. Our … Continue reading
Happy belated Birthday to Nicolas!
I need to have a Kurt Vonnegut-like device installed into my head to keep me from forgetting all the birthdays that happen during the first few days of every month! Well, Nicolas now hits the real teenager status because 13 is … Continue reading
Happy Belated Birthday to Jeff
It was last Thursday but matters were really crazy recently, especially as we’re finally getting over the cold snap. Our little celebration for Jeff will be delayed as I get through my ongoing schedule of other obligations but he let … Continue reading
