Couldn't find an old thread for you, so I had to start a new one!
have a good one!
Happy birthday, Dean!
Hope it's a fun-filled one.
Happy Birthday Sketch Lad. Hope you're having, have had, will have, FUN!
Yeah, yeah, what they said, now let's talk about all the stuff I want you to draw....
Have a wonderful birthday, Dean! I'm drawing a big cake for you!
have a great day Dean.
Loving your sketches over in bits by the way
Happy Bday Dean!
Happy Birthday, Dean!
Thanks for all you share with us!
Happy B-day buddy. Keep on sketching.
Have a sketcherific birthday, Dean!
Thanks everybody!!!!
I'm actually at work today! Probably the first time I've worked on my birthday in over 16 years!
It's fine, though. I had a *wonderful* family gathering yesterday. I'll tell you all all about it in a bit.....
Best wishes on your day!
Health & Happiness Always!
Happy Birthday, Dean! May your pencils never go dull, your pads never run out of paper and your ideas never run dry!
Thank you, guys. Very nice.
We had a wonderful get-together yesterday. My treat entree....RIBS... was the main course. I rarely let myself have them because I pretty much always GORGE myself.
Some delights... I've worn waiter white shirts for *several* years now, and have had some fun with ties, but really, not much in the way of color or pattern, so I received some nice contributions to a new wardrobe. My main gift, though, from several family members, was ....
a GUITAR!!
I've known for my whole adult life that I'd never make the time to learn to play the guitar, but now seems like the right time. I actually do want to be that guy at the campfire or during the party, who brings out the ol six string and starts the "koom-by-yah moment". (sp?) Lessons were part of the gift. I'm not shy about singing (see the karaoke thread at the Anywhere Machine), so the guitar is a wonderful instrument. I suppose because of my schedule change, I'm feeling more ready than ever to take on something new, like learning the guitar.
Next major item..... a HOT TUB!!!!
This wasn't a birthday gift, it just happened to come to us at this time. My wife's sister and family had a hot tub in their house when they bought it. It was in one of those indoor/outdoor type rooms, with concrete floors. They wanted to use the space for an office/kids' playroom, so the hot tub went to us for FREE!!!! We got it all up and running and we TOTALLY LOVE IT!!!!
I've appreciated hot tubs whenever I've had the opportunity to get in one, but I never thought I'd be the one who has one. Then, when we set it up (which took a LOT of effort) I still wasn't sure if it was really *me.* Well, after being in it and trying it, it IS. We are the right kind of family to have one. My backyard isn't very large, but between our patio and now this new feature, it is becoming quite the entertainment space.
All of that is really nice, but the thing is, I'm just lucky to have such a wonderful family and I love and appreciate them so much; my parents, my brother and his wife and kids, my kids, and mostly, my wife. Yes, I told them.
I do have some great friends, too, but haven't yet put together a party with them. We'll see how that goes...
I LOVE coming here, with all you fellow Legion fans. I don't know what I'd do without LW!!!
---Dean, full of love on this special day!
As I've grown older and bitterer I find myself not posting on Birthday threads-- but I can't resist Dean's! Happy Birthday, Sketchy!! Now go soak in the hot tub!
A very Douglas Adams birthday, I might add.
Dream Girl says:
I knew she was going to say that...nice menu! I hope you have the best day you could have imagined, and then some! Lester Spiffany says:
Rockefeller, phooey! Let me tell you....So on & so forth. Hooray for the Sketchy one!
This should be a national holiday! Have a wonderful birthday, Dean!
What kind of cake goes best with Space-Oysters Rockefeller?
Happy Birthday, Dean. I hope the coming year brings nothing but good things for you.
Happy Belated Birthday, Sketchy!

Same here.
Hope you had a great one, though!
Thanks! It was a fairly low key birthday this year. Nice of you guys to mention it.
Best wishes for a happy birthday!!
Happy Birthday! Health & Happiness Always!
Happy Birthday, Sketchy!
Nearly everday I enjoy your contributions and all I give back is a "Happy Birthday." So I'm cheap.
If it weren't for us cheap people there wouldn't be pain and suffering and artists everywhere would be left with paint by numbers for inspiration.
Happy Birthday. Enjoy your non-gift.
Happy Birthday, Dean!
I got this nice lady from an alternate universe to bake you a cake. She's bringing it in her cross-dimensional limo....
Birthy Hapday!
...Wait, what?
Hope you have a good one, Dean!
Hope you're having a great birthday, Sketchy!
Some day I'll figure out how to draw and send a Nura to you on your day of celebration!
sigh
Have a glorious day!
