Birthdays and Crushes

Ethan celebrated his eighth birthday today with many congratulations. Most important to him is that he has secured a reciprocal crush from a fellow classmate at school, about which we are to say nothing and reveal to no one. So, shhhh.

  • Happy birthday, E! (I know nothing! Honest!)

  • I’m almost 20 years older than him, and if I was able to confirm my classmate crush as reciprocated on my birthday I’d be so happy. How did he do it? Was it with a note? Does he think it would work if I wrote a note?

  • I didn’t have a reciprocal crush until I was more than twice his age.

  • Is this where I tell the story about the boy in kindergarten that ate a live snail to prove his undying love for me? Tell E it ain’t real until someone consumes a snail!

  • A kid that had a crush on me in the fifth grade stapled a love note to his forehead to impress me. Three times!

    I always kicked the boys I liked in the junk. It’s still the only thing I know about flirting.

  • THis is OT, but what is up at Feministe? I have been getting “Internal server error” for like a week now whenever I try to read there.

  • KMT,
    I had the same problem – if you take the /blog off the end it works. So it’s just http://www.feministe.us

  • No goodbye entry?!

    I hope you and Chef have a wonderful time on your post-nuptial vacation!

    Send pictures!

    xoxo
