estela's great all-american birthday!

here it still is!

― lxy, Saturday, February 28, 2009

this calls for a drink! (for you, not me.)

i'll drink one for each of us. <3<3<3

is today your real b'day, estela???

p.s. i don't think jordan will be here when you are - his stupid job is making him go to georgia for stupid work stuff. :( :( :( :(

but i'll be here, which is the important thing

happiest of all the days, when estela arrived on our planet!

should have been the 29th, imo

j/k happy birthday!

birthday! happy! <3

sweetestela, i'm getting ready to make your lxydrink!

i <3 you and i <3 everyone here. so glad mookieproof is sticking around.

happy happy happy :)

thank you dear sandboxers<3

:( stupid ytth work stuff

i'm also very glad mookie is in the sandbox, i <3 mookie.

me too!

i wish you all could meet mookie. he is very dear.

MAYBE he will move here, and then you will all meet him when you visit in the future!!!

did you measure mookie for the door.

no, he wasn't at the house + i didn't know he was a sandboxer at that time.

also if he reads this he will probably be very confused about this measuring business.

what did u get for yr birthday?

kind wishes
a terrible face licking from harry
flowers
chocolates
a scarf
an unconvincing but enjoyable promise of a parcel from my sister who is as post office averse as i am
a mosquito bite on my left hand

also i'll be getting a poang chair and footrest from ikea for my study but they don't have it in stock. i was there yesterday with my other sister for a couple of hours. it was fun, partly i think because i had let five years elapse since the last visit plus also my sister was in a fun mood and when she is good she is very very good.

does she have a little curl in the middle of her forehead?

mookie do you know about the measuring?

she most certainly does have a little curl in the middle of her forehead.

it's lucky the chair was out of stock because the section of my study it is going to go in has got stuff all over the floor.

won't someone spansplain the measuring business to mookie.

mookieproof, basically you have to read the entire thread: wd'ntyll

hopefully you don't mind squabbling and hyperbole.

best he sees our worst before he gets too embroiled.

ps estela, can you call me in one hour?

is two hours okay?

yes! <3

<3 okay

well i chose to read the first-n-last 50 rather than all 497 messages, so i don't yet understand the full importance of the matter . . .

i can tell you that of the ilxors i've met, only vic is taller than me, although i understand that strongo is also rather towering.

ps i have received an email from 'nic' re: jobs in seattle but i cannot speak with him now because germy washington state children have robbed me of my voice.

here's the upshot: some of are officially tall, one of us is officially short, and some of us are mysteries. but not many any more!

when you come back we'll mark you on the measuring post!

get your voice back soon so you can get a job here!!

it is weird; i could briefly see photos of the measuring stick but now i cannot.

anyway i am def. taller than estela which is all that counts.

ESTELA, today ytth officially accepted a job offer from that company!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh yay!!!!!! i have had my fingers crossed for you all week, congratulations ytth!! <3 u both.

i knew you were our lucky charm!!! and i PSYCHICALLY knew you were on the sandbox this very moment! <3

lol<3

hurray, ytth! wish you were here with us to celebrate.

me too!!!!!

i told estela she should move here when F. retires

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR!!

it is very appropriate that i located this thread by using the search term "estela's great"

i always watch that altered images video on your birthday, since i'm here and it's there and i love it so much, but this time the video didn't work so i tried to fix it and it was a couple of different disasters but then i finally DID fix it and i'm so proud and happy!!

what a wonderful magical day! happy birthday!!!

thank you lovely<3<3<3

there is some very severe jetlag going on here so i am feeling suitably old, but also very happy after such a lovely vacation.

Happy!

happiest of happy days!

omg happy birthday

is harry excited to see u

thank you all <3

harry told us off for going away and then he showered us with kisses and was happy to come home but i think he is missing the two little dogs whose house he was staying at (and i'm told they are missing him), he has stayed there almost every time we've gone away for the last nine years and all the dogs always go into a slump for a day or so after their little pack is broken up. we are so lucky to know those lovely people, they love snd take superb care of harry, i never have any anxiety about him when i'm away.

Happy happy birthday

My best friend's bday is also today, his little sister chose today to announce her engagement to one of the great undesirables, he has not appreciated the present

harry, happy birthday
