Many thanks to everyone in LJ land for all the birthday greetings and gifts and whatnot. You are all lovely people :)

Birthday was nice. It would have been nicer if I'd been able to breathe, speak or stay awake, but still. It was nice. Spent the morning lounging around my place, and then went out for lunch with my parents and Small. Small and I share the day; my birthday is also her adoption anniversary. Seven years ago yesterday the judge told us we could keep her forever, so forever more we will have a joint celebration. After lunch we went back to my parents' house, and I promptly fell asleep on the sofa for about two hours. The Calico cat wasn't best pleased about this, as it meant she couldn't make herself quite as comfortable on top of me as she'd have liked; wrong position. My excuse is that I have a nasty cold. Had to wake up when random relatives turned up - my aunt Lel, Nan and cousin Gavin. So, we had a little party tea and hung out together, and that was that. 30th birthday over and done with.

"Everything I know I learned after I was 30," says the card my Mum made for me. I guess that means I have a lot to learn, still...*G*

30? I hadn't realised you were quite so young. LOL

Heh. I am the baby of Prosfanfic *G*

[minki-moira.livejournal.com]

Yeah, and I'm one of the old f**ts, I'll be 42 in a few months. LOL

[llywela13.livejournal.com]

Eh, 42 is a spring chicken still *G*

Ta. Love your icon... I like Giles

So young, says she, heading rapidly downhill for almost twice that age! Age is how old you feel, so that makes me......errr... LOL. Well, lets just say the 55 in my LJ name is a couple of years out of date!
Thirty is a great age to be, enjoy!

Small once declared that no one was old until they were as old as my Nan's boyfriend, who was 95 when he died last year. So you've got a ways to go yet...

[rosie55.livejournal.com]

Good thinking, small - that cheered me up. And I love your icon!

Glad you had a good birthday despite feeling sick. Much sympathy from me, we probably had the same stupid virus! It's nice the way you sahre your day with Small!

[llywela13.livejournal.com]

Yup, we've probably cross-contaminated one another via the Internet!

Thirty is young? I'm a little surprised. (I've only been thirty-one a couple months...I feel old.)

Glad you had a nice birthday, Jo. It's good to know there are people around my age out there. I'm around college kids too much.

Eh, my friends range in age from teens to 60+, so I guess it's fair to say that age is all relative!

Happy 30s Jo! Mine's coming up next year and I'm looking forward to it. Your ma is right. My philosophy's always been that life begins at 25, when you're pretty much still a child...30 is when you start to grow up...then everything really kicks off in your late thirties.

Apparently your brain doesn't finish forming til your mid twenties.

Happy thoughts to hang onto. :)

You're *still* sick? You poor thing! What a drag. :::HUGS:::

[llywela13.livejournal.com]

Still sick. *sigh*

Although it depends which sickness you're referring to. This isn't the same thing I had a few weeks ago - that one was all fever and wretchedness. This is completely different. It's all congestion and wretchedness. Stupid viruses. I woke up with the start of it on Wednesday, and it took a couple of days to really hit me, and then wham. Fun. But hopefully the worst is over soon. I'll probably be good and stay off work tomorrow if I'm still like this, though.

*hugs back, but careful not to breathe germs on you*

Awww I hope you feel better soon :( Glad you had a good birthday despite being ill! *hugs*

Sorry to hear you're still sick, Jo. That's really nice that you get to share the day with Small, though :)

[rosely.livejournal.com]

Age is nothing but a number :)

But I'm glad your birthday was relatively good! Now if only you'd get healthy soon.... <3 Luckily virtual hugs won't get me sick sooo
*hugs Jo tightly*
