Earth Day - Birthday

Yes, the Earth and I are celebrating. Contrary to what my children think, I am not as old or as round as Mother Earth.

Last year I wrote about sharing this day with the Earth, but actually, the Earth shares the day with me. It didn't get its day until 1970, I got mine a bit earlier.

I'm going to spend the day having lunch with my daughters and seeing a movie. There is no better birthday than one spent with family. I might even get some new fodder for blogging.

I'm was also quite pleased to learn from Janice Brown last year that this is "Ancestor's Eve," its designation thanks to Neelix of Star Trek Voyager. We miss you, Janice!

So today I opened my eyes to Mr. Maven, Zoe, and Hunter singing their rendition of "Happy Birthday." (Or was that Happy Anniversary.) Now that's worth opening your eyes and ears for today.
