On May 12, 1981, at 11:11pm CDT, in a hospital in Chesterfield, Missouri, a boy was born. In case you haven't guessed already, it was me. :-)
Yes, today is my eighteenth birthday. It was also my last day of high school. All in all, having to go to work in about an hour is rather anticlimactic... *L*
Apparently, I have the same birthday as the following people: Socrates (no, I don't know how they figured out his birthday); Dolley Madison; Edward Lear, inventor of such limericks as "There once was a lady from Venus" and "There once was a man from Nantucket"; Florence Nightingale; Julius Rosenberg; Katharine Hepburn; Yogi Berra; Burt Bacharach; Tom Snyder; George Carlin; Steve Winwood; Bruce Boxleitner; Emilio Estevez; Steven Baldwin; Melanie Chisholm (better-known as Sporty, the Spice Girl); Amy Wheaton, younger sister of Wil "Wesley Crusher" Wheaton; and some guy named Morgan Weisser, whom I only include because he played Lee Harvey Oswald in The X-Files' "Musings of a Cigarette-Smoking Man". :-)

Sheesh, 1981 eh? Man, it's creepy to see a whole generation creep in behind you. You do seem to have quite a ridiculously rich diversity of celebrities (and Bruce Boxleitner as well ), who share the date with you.

Happy birthday! And also, happy no more high school day.

My 18th birthday is on June 6th... *grins* My High School graduation is on June, 6 as well...
Ahh.... total liberation from boundaries and restraints imposed by parents AND school all on the same day... Wow.... it just doesn't get ANY better than that! *L*

*refers Cujo to the preceding list of people who were born May 12* They're already there. *mock-Yogispeak* They'd be right next to each other, if someone weren't between them... :-)
