I am a quarter of a century old today. It feels at once like quite a lot and hardly anything at all. Twenty-five years, and still straddling the border between adolescence and adulthood.

...That's about all I've got; for once, I'm not feeling particularly maudlin or even introspective. Perhaps it has to do with just having returned from a relaxing and fun week with [livejournal.com profile] synn, jumping straight back into work today, not having too much time in which to brood, and/or becoming naturally less, rather than more, morbid with age.

To celebrate, there will be fic later. It's not new, exactly -- I'm still working on the two stories due in August -- but rather that long story I mentioned on the 1st, soon to be unlocked. Nothing says happy birthday like an inbox full of comments, right?

Also! Very happy birthdays to those of you who are celebrating/have celebrated around now: [livejournal.com profile] synn, [livejournal.com profile] purrlia, [livejournal.com profile] firestorm717, [livejournal.com profile] alisel_kat (much belated), [livejournal.com profile] elynross -- am I missing someone?

Last year, I invited all of you to tell the stories of your usernames. You are still invited to chip in over there. This year, I will merely be a geek and list some celebrities who share(d) my birthday: George Bernard Shaw, Aldous Huxley, Carl Jung, Stanley Kubrick, André Maurois, Mick Jagger, Nana Visitor (Kira on ST:DS9), Helen Mirren, Kevin Spacey, Sandra Bullock and Kate Beckinsale. How strange the ways in which we feel connected to people.

Happy birthday ^_^ hope you had a good one. And nice to see that I'm not the only July birthday out there.

Nope, there's a bunch of us. We went for sushi tonight! Well, I had sushi; my sister did vegetarian noodles and my dad tried chicken tempura. He'd never been to a Japanese restaurant before. (For my sister's birthday last year, we took him for Indian. We'll make a world eater of him yet.)
