It's my birthday.

It's hard to celebrate, when every day is so beautiful.

Like yesterday, for example....

Um, your "beautiful" photo ain't there - which I find funny - because the statement annoyed me.

Happy Birthday! ~~and many more~~

Many happy returns of the day.

As Stravinsky once put it (in a birthday tune he wrote for George Balanchine):

"Birthday and Nameday!
Get high on Grand Marnier!
Don't forget a glass for me!"

Ann Althouse বলেছেন...

Howard Stern too.

Ann Althouse বলেছেন...

Where's my radio show?

vbspurs বলেছেন...

In honour of Horace, the poet and the commenter birthday boy:

"To me the artist's meed, the ivy wreath
Is very heaven: me the sweet cool of woods,
Where Satyrs frolic with the Nymphs, secludes
From rabble rout, so but Euterpe's breath"

Habeas felicitatem in die natus es!

Cheers,
Victoria

AllenS বলেছেন...

You don't need a radio show, you've got us.

Juan Pablo বলেছেন...

Wow! To one of my favorite bloggers: Feliz Cumpleaños!
Now, where is the piñata?? And could I ask what shape would your piñata have?

Ricardo বলেছেন...

Happy Birthday, and many more! Now that you realize how beautiful Texas is (especially in wintertime), are you moving down here?

howzerdo বলেছেন...

Happy birthday! It's my mother's birthday too (she's 77). When I was a kid, we always made ice cream on this day (with a hand-crank maker).

rhhardin বলেছেন...

Birthday poem from e e cummings to somebody he probably knew.

Joan বলেছেন...

Many happy returns of the day, Professor!

নামহীন বলেছেন...

Ah, Austin. Every time I am there I wonder why I don't live there.

Happy Birthday, Counselor.

Que melones! (All the Spanish I know is from old John Wayne movies, so if that doesn't mean what I think it do...)

Happy birthday to my favorite "breast wielding" blogger!

Bob বলেছেন...

Happy Birthday, Ann.

nina বলেছেন...

Happy Birthday! And, somewhere in there (on the 6th?) -- happy blogging anniversary!

Cedarford বলেছেন...

Enjoy your B-Day!

নামহীন বলেছেন...

Happy birthday!

You're catching up to me...

vbspurs বলেছেন...

When I was a kid, we always made ice cream on this day (with a hand-crank maker).

It's always the simplest, shared memories of our parents, that we remember best, isn't it, Howzerdo?

former law student বলেছেন...

Happy Birthday!

I always wonder if kids got shortchanged on presents when their birthdays fell close to Christmas. Plus toys and sports equipment used to be more seasonal than they are today, making it hard to find, say, wiffle balls and bats in the dead of winter. Although one Christmas Santa brought us both new bikes when we were kids.

Penny বলেছেন...

Happy Birthday, Ann!

I wondered what the likelihood was for another person to come into this "room" today who would share your birth date. I googled, started reading, and then my eyes glazed over. Someone else will need to tell you!

Penny বলেছেন...

You know what's nice about on line birthday celebrations?

SO many people get out their exclamation points! Perhaps they are the on line equivalent of birthday balloons, and even if not, isn't it fun to think of them that way today?

!!! For you, Ann.

Freeman Hunt বলেছেন...

Happy birthday to you!

(And happy birthday to Limbaugh too!)

Lem Vibe Bandit বলেছেন...

Happy birthday, Professor Althouse.

Ann Althouse বলেছেন...

@nina The blog anniversary is the 14th. Don't worry. I'll blog it when the time comes. As a blogger, I'm almost 6.

Hector Owen বলেছেন...

Happy birthday to you! Best wishes for many more birthdays and blogiversaries to come.

traditionalguy বলেছেন...

January 12, 1951 was a very good day.

Bob Ellison বলেছেন...

H.B.! I comment rarely but read almost all of your stuff and lots of the comments. Your blog is one of very best on the Interwebs. Thanks for doing it.

chickelit বলেছেন...

As a blogger, I'm almost 6

So what's 6 in blog-years?

Happy Birthday!

chickelit বলেছেন...

Who will be the 59th commenter?

mariner বলেছেন...

Congratulations Althouse.

Happy Birthday!

Jason (the commenter) বলেছেন...

Happy Birthday!

And remember, you don't have children, you have siblings.

Unknown বলেছেন...

Late to the party, but happy birthday!

Kev বলেছেন...

Happy Birthday, Althouse! (It's also one of my best friends' birthdays, and my two-year "cariversary" of my beloved Honda Fit.)

And by the way, every birthday spent in Texas is a beautiful birthday (not that I'm biased or anything, LOL). It's too bad you weren't driving on this trip, or you could have gotten a belated birthday coffee on your way back up through Dallas.

Eric বলেছেন...

A day late, but Happy Birthday!
