Halfy birthday
Once you pass half life (35? 45? 60?) you want to slow things down, so... | |
Halfy birthday!
This is for when you reach the age where you don't want
noisy parties with kids from the neighborhood that don't
really want to play with you.
You get half a cake. With a recipe for half the calories.
The music is at half volume. Only half of your "friends"
show up, so
you know who really cares. You only blow out
half the number of candles. Then someone reads half a
poem, leaving the remainder to your imagination. etc. etc.
Sorry this is only half of the idea.
I leave the rest to you.

[+] I'll be halfy in September. A half year from my whole birthday in March. |
|
|
I went over to "Happy Still Alive Day" some time ago. |
|
|
"That's not halfy for you!" (Mother, eyeing the
halfday boy trying to lick the halfday cake icing) |
|
|
My wife's is on March - she was born on Pieday. |
|
|
We had another kind of halfy birthday in my house recently,
a date on which my younger daughter was exactly half the
age (in days) as my older daughter. We took a picture with
them holding signs: "I'm exaclty half her age" and "I'm
exactly twice her age." I'm going to steal the name of
this idea as the name of that photo. Thanks! |

(BTW, does anyone else celebrate this once in a siblinghood
event?) |

|
So, if I celebrate my "halfy" at age 65, I'll live to 130? |

Yes, I was four. I remember it, but it's a bit hazy. |
|
|
Aww, I thought this was going to be a proposal to
have an additional celebration at the mid-points
between whole birthdays. |
