The Earth is Round

Happy birthday to theohara and to toysdream

It's still the 1st in their time zones, although no longer in mine.

Today (or yesterday in my time zone) wasn't a productive one for writing. I spent a good chunk of the day at the hospital undergoing a pre-operative assessment ready for the internal examination on the 8th. They gave me comprehensive instructions as to what I am allowed to eat on the 7th, and medicine to take on that day to clean me out internally; it is not going to be a fun day. The procedure itself isn't going to be fun either, although at least I will be sedated for it, and I'll probably be pretty much out of it on the 9th too. Oh well.

Maybe it's because I'm getting old...

Belated Happy Birthday to josephine_64

I noticed a couple of people wishing her birthday greetings yesterday but I couldn't see her on my list of birthdays and I saw no birthdate on her user info page. I guessed that it might be a mistake (like the one that I made in September when I wished Lisa a Happy Birthday a month early and caused some panic amongst people who thought that they had missed it) being picked up and replicated by others, and decided not to include her in the wishes until I had some confirmation.

However she's showing up on the Birthdays list for 1st November now. I have no idea how I couldn't see it yesterday.

Oops. Sorry.
