Well, I deleted my birthday post because it was simply too curmudgeonly. I do apologise to Russell, who left a very kind (and appreciated) comment. I’ve had a long week, am tired, and needed a quiet day. Unfortunately that hasn’t happened yet, which has sort’ve dented my mood more than a bit.
Anyhow, today I turn 46. Many thanks to those who’ve sent kind wishes. Hopefully this year will be more fun than 2009, which was very successful but not that much fun, and I hope we all get out unscathed.
Um. Dude. Did I already know this? You are exactly 10 years older than me!
Happy birthday to us! And congrats on a huge year – however, difficult it was, you got heaps of awesome stuff out there. New Space Opera 2 was fantastic, and Eclipse Three is predictably awesome (reading at the moment).
Thank you. And happy birthday to you!!! It was a busy year professionally, no doubt.
I missed the curmodgeonly post, but happy birthday anyway. Everone is entitled to be a bit curmudgeonly occassionally.
Thank you for the birthday wishes :) The problem with curmudgeonly is if it drifts into ungracious, which I feared the original post might have.
