An unlucky possession; something that brings evil to all who possess it. Harmonia was the daughter of Mars and Venus and she received the fatal necklace on her marriage to King Cadmus. Vulcan, to avenge the infidelity of her mother, also gave the bride a present of a robe dyed in all kinds of crimes, which infused wickedness and impiety into all her offspring. Both Harmonia and Cadmus, having suffered many misfortunes, changed into serpeants. ~ From Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase & Fable

I wish I could do the "Z-snap" thing here, but imagine that motions while I say,
"Girlfriend, you LOOK 25!"
Happy Birthday, K8!!!!!
Happy Birthday!
Enjoy it. Really. It just keeps getting better.
I'm 35 too. Welcome. It's not that bad. A little scary, because it seems so much like a very real solid number, when I would like to still feel like I'm a waifish number. But it's all right. May this be your best year yet!
Thanks all!
Billie - I know I look younger than I am. Almost every semester there comes a point when my students start to do the math in their heads (adding up years of grad school with the years I mentioned I waited before coming back to school) and get confused. I get something like "Wait. How old are you?" They tend to be surprised to learn that I'm over 30.
Happy Birthday! Tell me how it is. I'm a mere 33 years old. :)
Happy Birthday. Take it from one who is 40. It does get better!
Happy birthday! Sorry I'm a little late!
I will be there with you in August. I just wish my PhD was a little closer.
Happy belated birthday! I hope it was special!
