Grex Oathbound Item 43: Five more shopping days!!!!
Entered by morgaene on Sun Jun 9 23:42:15 UTC 1996:

Hee hee, this is the birthday item, entered mainly for me because my barfday
is coming up very quickly now, but as I understand it, a far away Grexer
shares my Barfday, and he will, in fact, be in A2 to celebrate it, so I think
this will turn into a fun item. :) We can talk about birthdays, and birthday
memories, and tease people whose birthday's are coming up by telling them we
got them something but not telling them what. *This trick works especially
well for Gemini's, and it has been known to at times kill them. :)*
So, drift away! :)

 Wel, everyone, Five more shopping days until my 21st Barfday! :)
We are going to a concert, on June 14th, 1996 to see Paula COle, Sarah
McLachlan, Patti Smyth, Aimee Mann, and Lisa Loeb! :)
I am planning a big old party for my birthfday, invitations should be going
out soon! :)

How many shopping days was that? <grin>
<Anne has only heard this ALL weekend!!!> <giggle>

Inviting you to a concert wasn't that out of the question, then.
Hmm...


#4 of 137 by morgaene on Tue Jun 11 00:04:40 1996:

Want to hear it some more, smarty? *grin* Don't forget, I know where you live,
and where you sleep, for that matter... :)


#5 of 137 by clees on Tue Jun 11 15:49:26 1996:

How can you know?
Humour me, and you're welcome.


#6 of 137 by anne on Wed Jun 12 00:56:53 1996:

Morgaene is referring to me... <grin>  We live in the same apt.
And unlike some of our other roommates, she knows where to find
me when I sleep... <grin>


#7 of 137 by morgaene on Wed Jun 12 18:01:40 1996:

Clees, you remember the other night when you thought someone was following
you? You kept looking behind you? Well, someone was, it was me.....
*grin*

And of COURSE I know where Anne sleeps, I make it a point to know that....
*evil **it-eating grin* :)


#8 of 137 by clees on Thu Jun 13 11:02:23 1996:

That was you? But why did you have to beat me up that way?
It still hurts down deep inside, and besides
your voice sounded quite peculiar, like 
a man's
a man's.


#9 of 137 by morgaene on Thu Jun 13 14:57:08 1996:

Ahhhh...you see, I am a glamour expert, a Mistress of Disguise...a....


#10 of 137 by anne on Thu Jun 13 19:45:10 1996:

Something like that.... <evil grin>


#11 of 137 by matthew on Fri Jun 14 09:11:25 1996:

...a...changeling ?
Hmm... not suprising.


#12 of 137 by morgaene on Sun Jun 16 03:47:37 1996:

Changeling? Ack! I am not! :)
*Oh no, they have discovered me, I must retreat, must retreat....*


#13 of 137 by mooncat on Tue Jun 18 16:43:22 1996:

#16 of 137 by sun on Wed Jun 19 21:01:50 1996:

#21 of 137 by sun on Fri Jun 21 02:03:36 1996:

I will be the ripe old age of 20


#22 of 137 by clees on Fri Jun 21 06:24:17 1996:

Ah, to be 20 again.


#23 of 137 by cody on Fri Jun 21 16:05:10 1996:

Happy B-Day Sun.


#24 of 137 by sun on Fri Jun 21 22:02:59 1996:

Thank you cody...

Now the waiting begins...my last days as a teen-ager!


#25 of 137 by kerouac on Sat Jun 22 16:36:33 1996:

actually sun, many believe you are still a teenager until you are 21...
Its like the next millenium wont start on 2000, it technically will start 
on 2001.  Besides you still wont be legal, so still be a teenager!


#26 of 137 by anne on Sun Jun 23 03:11:58 1996:

Technically according to whom?  The millenium starts with 2000... 
just deal with it. ;)

Teen years end when your age no longer ends in "teen" such as nine"teen."
Twenty doesn't have teen anywhere in it, hence you are no longer a 
teenager.



#27 of 137 by sun on Sun Jun 23 16:06:29 1996:

I have to agree with Anne, Ker, I will ceace to be a teen-ager when
I turn twenty.  And the mileniem begins when 2000 begins.  The 90's
were from 90-99, a full 10 years, not 90-00.  You are counting wrong.


#28 of 137 by anne on Mon Jun 24 02:09:14 1996:

As are the rest of the people that say otherwise. so nyah! ;)



#29 of 137 by cody on Mon Jun 24 13:32:31 1996:

I agree Anne. Yep Yep
                          -= C =-


#30 of 137 by void on Mon Jun 24 18:23:51 1996:

   nope. the millenium begins on jan 1, 2001. the year 2000 is the last year
of the *twentieth* century, just as 1900 was the last year of the *nineteenth*
century. it works that way because the common era began with the year 1, not
the year 0. the first century c.e. was from 1-100. second century was 101-200,
and so forth.


#31 of 137 by morgaene on Tue Jun 25 14:23:24 1996:

There, so NYAH! :) Ha ha, but Sun will cease to be a teenager when she turns
20, not 21. :) *grin* Hee hee, you guys are crazy, I swear it.


#32 of 137 by mooncat on Tue Jun 25 16:24:45 1996:

We are definitly crazy..... and I don't care what anyone says...  The
millenium starts with the year 2000, at least for me. <grin>



#33 of 137 by kerouac on Tue Jun 25 17:02:25 1996:

#30...exactly...and Since Sun is counting her age from age 1, nmot age 
zero, she is just enter ing her tweniteith year, not finishing it so she 
is still a teenager.  


#34 of 137 by void on Tue Jun 25 19:37:53 1996:

   unless sun is japanese, she's counting from zero. that's why people in our
culture have a *first* birthday...becasue they spent a year becoming one year
old. in japan and a few other cultures, though, babies are considered to be
a year old when they are born. even so, sun will indeed cease to be a teenager
when she turns 20, because she spent a year not being a a year old yet.


#35 of 137 by freida on Wed Jun 26 00:38:35 1996:

sheesh!  does this mean that I can claim I am really 43, even though I am in
my 44th year?  I don't mind knocking a year off here or there...heh, when you
get to this age, you don't really feel like you are that old anyway (even
though your body occasionally cops out on you *sigh*)


#36 of 137 by clees on Wed Jun 26 10:00:37 1996:

Er....I am in my 35 th year, but am 34. I am therefore having
birthdays? I don't get it anymore <sigh>


#37 of 137 by mooncat on Thu Jun 27 20:16:01 1996:

I never did understand that logic, and therefor stand by my own...

I'm happier this way, trust me... <grin>



#38 of 137 by clees on Fri Jun 28 06:27:15 1996:

Surely you're happier that way. But what about me?
O.k., 34 sounds bad enough as it is.
Compared to you lot I'm a geriatric <sob>


#39 of 137 by mooncat on Sat Jun 29 04:03:44 1996:

Oh no you're not... You're just chronilogically disadvantaged.... <giggle>
