Flea b-day
Happy birthday to Flea! Happy birthday to Flea!
Ok, my never-ending cold and antihistimine regimine meant I missed the Flea's official anniversary on October 28. Still, I am terrible at remembering birthdays and often forget my own age (I have to work it out from remembering the year of the moon-landing... no, seriously).
The 31st is a good day to mark the occasion. It is my favourite holiday and is also a whole year from my second post. Google the words "Madonna" and "tattoo" and you shall find my excursus on kabbalah. The first hit points to my old home on Blogspot and the second to my jury-rigged proto-blogging at my personal dot com. This year's aim concerns the combination of the words "Kylie" and "bottom". I am sure I get move up from the number seven spot.
And then... This poorly worded post has produced an alarming confusion of events. This is a blogiversary rather than a b-day. Sorry about that! It has not occured to me that the Flea (the blog that is) is a Scorpio...

Happy birthday! I look forward to many more at the Flea.
(Good luck on the Kylie thing, too.)

Happy (belated) birthday!
May all your Kylies be well-packed!

Happy Birthday! Wow, a Scorpio archaeologist! (Now, if only I knew the YEAR of your birth, I could tell you things about yourself that you don't even know!)
Sorry you still have that cold, dammit!

Sorry Eric, but it is the blog that is a Scorpio. The author's birthday falls in a different Sun sign (though I do have Scorpio rising).

Now I am REALLY curious -- but most likely I will never know what astrological secrets are lurking 'neath the Rising.
Happy BLOGOVERSARY!

You know, that post could have been much more clearly worded. Sorry about that. I used my own birthday as an example of dates I forget because it is more embarrassing to admit I have to rely on a computer program and my sister to remind me of all other birthdays in the family.
Thanks for all the kind words everybody!
