...I'd have to buy you drinks. That's how birthdays work here. The person getting OLDER buys drinks/food/etc for his/her friends. But they have to bring him/her presents. I'm actually kinda relieved that you're not here. Don't get me wrong, I wuve you, but buying drinks for all of you would bankrupt me ahhaha :P
So, instead of drinks, I give you...
1. My latest favourite song, The Blakes' Vampire (thank you, Amber and Andrea!), see red button.
2. Pictures of pretty scenery from my recent vacation to Pilio: http://annazrk.multiply.com/photos/album/42/Pilio
3. My pearls of wisdom from the year that's now behind me.
~ Men that don't dance in fear of their bangs getting messed up just ain't worth the time, regardless of how pretty they might be.
~ Paris could just be the most beautiful city in the world, but chances are that you'll leave your heart in London.
~ Cacophony is the new euphony.
~ Mustard goes with EVERYTHING.
~ There is no such thing as too much Nutella.
~ 1 cocktail at a beach equals with 3 at a bar.
~ Gogol Bordello's singer will explain the word "bordello" to you in detail, if given the chance.
~ And I will do the same with "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"'s historical background.
~ You can lose your head at any given time, so take good care of your skin {?}.
~ Lack of linear notes can lead you to say something you'll regret.
~ When you're trying on a black overcoat and someone tells you that you look like Batman, regard it to be a compliment. I do.
~ Ventriloquist dummies are the very definition of evil.
~ Ian Rankin is a criminal novel genius.
~ Good things happen to those that make them happen.
And out. :)

I wouldn't let you pay - cuz that's how it works over here... and I never subscribed to that whole when in Rome thing... LOL!!! Happy B'Day - and may you have many many more.
V
Fine, you can pay, but I also want a present! ;)
Thanks, V!
That's how we do it here - presents - and the B'Day girl doesn't pay for _anything. Cheers!
**Mustard goes with EVERYTHING.**
>>> OK, I'll have a Rusty Nail please, but for god's sake, hold the friggin' mustard!
Umm. You forgot the spanking bit.
Then at my house there would be gratuitous nudity and then we'd get out the livestock... oh, I don't want to spoil the surprise.
So, young lady, you don't Mog like you've aged one bit.
You're wrong. I'm sure most of us would leave our hearts in Greece with you.
Van, that's one American custom I have to import to Greece while I'm still here. Cheers :)
Jeff, sorry, mate. If you want a drink, you're gonna have to do with the mustard as well, or at least have some mustard shots! :)
Kevbo ahahahhahahhahah
That sounds like such a civilized and appropriate way to celebrate one's birthday! We've been going about it so wrong for so long.
I'm only 2 years old in MOG years ;)
Awwww! Don't leave your hearts here with me. I might keep them :)
Happy Happy Birthday! I wouldn't buy you a drink doll. :)
ACK! I meant I wouldn't let YOU buy ME a drink. It's too early in the a.m. here.
Thank you, Mimi! :D
ahahaha and I was just about to ask you if it is because I killed you :)
Fine, But we're toasting your birthday so you'll have to drink up as well, and of course you ??must?? have what I'm having.
"Good things happen to those that make them happen."
I'm in complete agreement with you on that one, babe. And I must admit, sometimes you're almost as cool as most of these people think you are. Happy birthday, kid.
Also a lover of mustard here... Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday, Batgirl ^_^ I think MOGgingland has a drinking age limit of..21 years. So you, technically, can't really drink for another 19 years -_^
"Cacophony is the new Euphony" - A motto to live next year by. Happy Birthday! Drinks on the house!
Happy Happy Happy.
Paris could just be the most beautiful city in the world, but chances are that you'll leave your heart in London.
London is The Only Real City In The World. If the geography of the Thames valley had been different, world history would be different, and we'd prolly be having this conversaton in Dutch or Portugese.
(Nice avatar, BTW. *snerk*)
Gotta argue the mustard thing, in my eyes mayonaise is what goes with everything. Give me a plate of fries and some mayo and I am happy like a pig in the mud. Oh, and nutella, I did not know this until last year but you are spot on with that one. Happy birthday anna, and good luck on getting your blog page reading level up to par!
Aww, I knew there was a good reason I woke in such a good mood. Happy Birthday sweetest! Can I come over, since you don't have to buy me any drinks more powerful than Sprite? ;)
CacophonyPWNS all! So does mustard.
And I just clicked the red button for the second time since reading this post, so I think the EMCD gene got passed to Amber and Andi, dontcha think?
Congratulations Anna! And here's to many more!
And indeed, mustard goes with everything. And I don't get people not dancing because it might mess up their looks. Nothing more beautiful than people dancing and smiling while their hair is all a mess.
(mini-EMCD! I learned from the best)
Happy Birthday to my favorite Grecian Sister!
I looked everywhere for a zombie birthday card but this is the best I could do:
Cacophony is the new euphony, but I've always been fond of entropy and I hear it's making a comeback.
Have a lovely day, my sweet.
haha i love entrophy as well!
happy bday chica.
Entropy never went away. We just ignored it for a long time.
A joyous day to you, Anna.
Happy b-day Anna...you share your day with a handsome sideburn wearing fellow...
Again...any excuse (insert smiley emoticon here).
Mustard is the new mayonnaise.
Many happy returns Anna, it was mine yesterday
Happy Belated B'Day Conrad - that's me, always a day late and a dollar short... well, ok, a day late...
Dirty Martinis are on me
~ Paris could just be the most beautiful city in the world, but chances are that you'll leave your heart in London.
Someone's never been to Helsinki... or Stockholm... Hell Gothenberg will steal your heart
~ Mustard goes with EVERYTHING.
Shhhhhh you're were supposed to keep that to your self...
~ Ian Rankin is a criminal novel genius.
I need to add some of his stuff to my list of To Read..
Happy Birthday.
Happy Birthday Anna!
Mustard goes with EVERYTHING.
Great to hear you're a fan as well. Have you tried the whole grain variety? There's something so satisfying about being able to chew on your Mustard.
Happy Birthday!!!
Mustard goes well with mac n' cheese. Try it sometime.
Bob Asprin's First Rule of Cuisine: There is no such thing as "too much garlic."
happy birthday with extra mustard!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! I love the way birthday drink buying works in Greece...so very smart!
Happy birthday, anna! Gin and tonic, please . . . but I'll take a lime instead of mustard!
I don't know, judging from those pics I could easily leave my heart in Pilio.
happy birfday!! great morsels of knowledge, anna!
Mustard will keep you young.
A Very Happy Birthday Anna!
Jeff, deal! Rusted Mustard Nails for everybody! :D
Troy, yup, all those patience things are rubbish!
If the cool is calling me cool, then I have one more reason to smile :)
And a "kid" to boot! I feel so young :P
Kisses!
Mark, thank you! Mustard Lovers United :)
Rei, thank you, my favourite batboy :)
Greece doesn't really have an age drinking limit...so, since I'm Greek and all....cheers!
Jonh, let's spread it and take over the world :) Thank you!
Mike, why yes :)
Funny that you mention Thames, that's exactly where I plan to set up my cardbox in September :)
{I thought you might hehe}
Kevin, I'm not big on mayo, its taste feels too fattening, but each to their own {taste buds}. Oil shmoil, I'm telling you Nutella is where it's at :)
Thank you! I'll try to be as immature as ever :)
Brother, thank you so! I can afford a few Sprites, your name will therefore be on the list :)
Gimme a bucket of mustard and a Gogol Bordello album and I'm set.
EMCD-ing has never been more of a vicious circle! :)
Thank you, Stefan!
I know, I pity the fools. The same thing goes for beach hair and sex hair :)
Thank you, Amber!
It's awesome and it will more than do!
Thank you, Faith-Ann :)
Van, mustard is the new mustard!
Thank you, dear ivy :)
From wiki: entropy, symbolized by S, is a measure of the unavailability of a system’s energy to do work. Isn't entropy that got us all here? ahahha
Annie...oohhh you bad, lady! hahahha
Thank you :)
Conrad, you fellow Leo, I knew I liked you for a reason :)
Thanks and happy belated birthday to you, too!
Make my dirty Martini really dirty :F
Eric, Helsinki is my near plans. Stockholm will follow one day, promise :)
Can't keep a secret for my mustard's life...unless I say "I swear on mustard" :)
Rankin will not disappoint you!
Thank you :)
Hey Daniel, thank you! I have tried any mustard that I could get my claws on...call me a mustard slag, if you will ahahhahahah
Thank you for the b-day cookie, Fluxy! :)
Pat, thanks! I don't mean to get into your doghouse, but I despise MacDonald's....I'll try mustard with mustard instead :)
Will! You fiend, you virtual boogieman you...thank you :)
madrid, thank you with extra Nutella! :D
Thanks, Blair! And glad you approve. So, where's my present?! :)
Groony, merci! Gin and tonic is one drink that I could never drink, too bitter for me. Mustard might actually help it...hm..interesting!
You can check in anytime you like, but you can never leave ;)
Thanks, Brittany! Yeah, that year did not go down the drain hahaha :)
Merci, Rejean! Mustard is rumoured to be the new botox :)
You guys are all great...such warm wishes....I'm touched....
Repeating to myself: I'matoughcookieI'matoughcookieI'matoughcookie
How about us men that don't dance because we stopped taking lessons too many years ago???
Nutella- right on sister!!!
Happy birthday! Don't do anything that I would do. ":)
Killing 2 birds with one stone;
Stefan, you are not as bad. Get over your shame, hop on the dancefloor and dance like you're on smack :D
Nutella....to fall asleep, I count vases of Nutella....
Thank you! I promise I won't do anything you wouldn't do twice :P
Neill, I'm in awe of your practical mind.
And thinking of what you told me last year, I'm still not tripping over my tits.
hahahahhah
Have an excellent Birthday!!!!!
Happy happy joy joy! And I LOVE me some mustard. Is it any wonder we're family? Mayo is way overrated!
Oh, & I'll have some of that champagne while you're at it!
Thank you very much, snakama! :D
I hope you have your party hat on, uncle A :)
I will share the champagne (just don't expect me to do the same with mustard and Nutella) :)
You got a deal niecey poo!
ill have to make you a drink that my friend and i invented the other day. its called "The Aruba Jam: Tropic Thunder Tasty Beverage Edition"
heres a birthday song ardy crack dealed me.
HAPS B-DAY!!!!!!!
Who is that song by Sam? The voice/music sounds familiar.
Sam, I want me some of that!
While on vacation, we created a drink called Grandpa. Don't ask how the name came to be, it comes from the realms of the macabre..
Thank you very much for the song and the wishes! :*
w00t! Anna's having a birthday, yaaay!
count me among Amber's and Andrea's converts to The Blakes, and i especially nod to mustard, Nutella, men with bangs - London ought to know, you are truly wise beyond your years.
hope you had a blast, what with a month to go before your planned invasion! ps- you know where the cake's at. (;
oh ya haha durr
andrew bird - 'the happy birthday song'
May I be the first to wish you a Happy Birthday 2009, Anna! Okay, okay. I just caught this post. You might be asking how I could be so late to the party. It's because I'm living on MOG time. In any event, make mine a frosty ale. As for giving you your present, something tangible will have to wait. But I'm good with intangibles: I give you the future - and my hope that it will be as bright and satisfying as any you could imagine.
What are you like really 800 hundred or something?
Damn you look good. Good for 400 or 450 tops, right?
Keep em' coming old hag!
Like you don't love garlic. As if.
I think we need to see you in a mirror.
Just to set the record straight.
Tomorrow being Sunday, you have to wait for the pita hoist till Monday.
I always say something I regret when I have non-linear notes.:P Agreed about Rankin, Rebus's drinking tours are also a good Edinburgh tourist guide.
Oh, and I kinda like them Blakes, too.
Thank you, poe! Great new avatar.
mustard - Nutella - men with bangs lovers have excellent taste :)
It was good times, good times.
Cake is in the eye of the beholder! ;)
Mikey, it's fine. Sometimes my comments are on MOG time, too (this one for example is quite MOG punctual...).
Thank you very much. Excellent intangible present..
xoxo
Chris, what can I say, it's all the e -botox stuff, it's working.
Mmm garlic. And onions. And mints.
Sorry, there is no mirror reflection available. Try again later ;)
Pita pita everywhere, and no blood to drink!
Pekka, Rankin's books are the best pub crawl guide a tourist in Edinburgh could ask for. And then some. Hardcore style :)
Remember, The Blakes probably love you, too...
