The Daily Dog: Birthday edition.
Today is my birthday, I am now 36 years old, and I’m feeling pretty great about it. So is Maggie, and she’s also feeling pretty great about trying to help Sunny lose weight by simply biting off large chunks of fat.
P.S. Thank you VERY MUCH to everyone who’s bought something from my Zazzle store or hit my tip jar in the last few days. You guys are the most awesome people on the planet. I’ll send individual thank-you notes but it’ll take time and I couldn’t wait to say it: thank you.
Happy Birthday!
I remember 36. Sort of.
April 21st, 2008 at 9:47 amHappy Birthday Kiddo (I can say that ‘cause you’re the same age as my son)!
Thing is, that picture on your masthead must’ve been taken about 15 years ago.
No 36 year old woman could look that good…

Happy Birthday, Rachel!
Now you might want to go chase those goddam kids off your lawn. Trust me, it won’t be long.
April 21st, 2008 at 11:41 amMaggie: “I can haz Sunnyburger?”
Happy birthday, Rachel!
April 21st, 2008 at 11:48 amHappy Birthday, Rachel. I’m 34 this year, so not far behind you, hopefully I’ll look as good at my 36 as you do at yours.
Does Maggie always go for Sunny’s neck when they play wrestle? I come home some days and my golden retriever’s neck is soaked sometimes from wrestle play with her younger sister, Angie - who is a big neck muncher. Kyra’s never the neck muncher, always the one having her neck munched, even though she outweighs Angie by about 15lbs.

April 21st, 2008 at 12:01 pmA very Happy Birthday to you, young lady!! All the best to you today and into the future.

Happy Birthday to you!
(Make sure Maggie brushes after her Sunnysnack. Sunny is so sweet, after all!)

April 21st, 2008 at 1:44 pmTanjoubi Oumeditou! as they say in Japan. Hope your birthday is everything you wished it was. After all, the leader of the Rachelucion should be treated like the empress she is. And always remember: You’re not old until you’re dead.

When you get to my tip jar contributions, you might end up deciding to reconsider sending me a “Thank you.”
April 21st, 2008 at 4:36 pmHappy birthday, Rachel! Unfortunately, this means you have to update your “About” page — the Age and Domestic Status are out of date. Also, you should add a new section that says the following:
Do it now!
