17 March 2006

Thirty four years ago today... An advertising guy and his art therapist wife got tipsy at the grand opening party for a new gym. They evaded the crowd for a quickie in the sauna, and Moonbird was conceived.

Do you know how you got here?
I assume I'm a Valentine's Day baby; and I know I was an accident. Mom wanted six kids and got six kids in one baby.

Happy Birthday moonbird!

No. Ewww!

Happy Birthday! May your moon shine bright forever!

No, though I do concede that October is an awfully romantic time in this city, what with the autumn and all.

But yeah, flopsy. Ew.

Thank god no.

Happy conception day. It's a cute story. Glad the sperm survived the extreme heat of the sauna.

Oh, wait. I guess it isn't your birthday. Happy Birthday anyway, dammit.

One tradition states that I came from Thessaly and that I was welcomed by Camese in Latium, where we shared a kingdom. We married and had several children, including the river god Tiberinus (after whom the river Tiber is named).

I'm afraid to ask, frankly.

My middle name is Noelle, and I was born in August. That's really all I'd want to know.

Happy birthday, moonbird!

I dated a girl in high school who was a honeymoon baby.

What flopsy said.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
You barely missed the full moon this year (as I know you know).

(It's my mom's birthday and anniversary today too, my dad was a clever feller.)

No, it was my birthday, but I knew it was stupid to include myself on the birthday page in the wiki anyway. C'est la vie. I am not a cute lovable bunny. I got birthday spam, though. And a kumquat.

May a rabbit butt you to death! (Lithuanian curse?)

Kudos to the old man for poppin' that righteous wad, dude.

Oh, umm, I guess you weren't actually born the day you were conceived, huh? Happy spark of life thing then.

on preview...woo hoo, saved by Mighty Nez.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MIGHTY NEZ!!!!

As far as how I was concieved...I was born in December, so I must've been concieved in March. Maybe St. Paddy's day got Dad in the spirit after a couple of Jamesons.

HBD MightyNez!

It's a fine line, but I've always called it my 'conception day,' just as another way to feel some self-reflective goodness.

Happy "REAL" Birthday, Nezzie!

Of course, we won't get into the whole when life begins argument (as far as I'm concerned, I was just-a-clumpa dividing cells.)

My parents made up after having a fight on the day after New Year's. There was a broken bottle of alcohol involved in the fight, I think because my mom dropped it on accident. No, she wasn't tipsy; she was just clumsy.

that dress

that night
that booze

and a happy unwombing for all
true romance

No, but my b-day is in February, putting that magic night sometime in May... in Georgia. My mom won't even let you sit too close to her in the car when it's hot and humid, so kudos to my dad for overcoming that to bring me into being. Somehow.

i was conceived when my parents were on a summer vacation at a bungalow colony in the Catskills.

I have no idea how I was concieved except that it was an accident (read: drunkenness) after my mother had already filed for divorce. I know that her ex husband is my father cos I look just like him, but damn I feel lucky to be here :)
posted by gaspode 17 March | 12:21
No, but I've been told how my brother got here. My parents had houseguests, and the houseguests had the bedroom and my parents were sleeping in the living room, and whatever they were using for birth control was also in the bedroom, and, as my mother put it, "Your father wouldn't leave me alone."

My birthday is in October, so I was probably conceived in January. Anything beyond that I really don't want to know. : )
posted by sisterhavana 17 March | 12:43
I'm very comfortable in my ignorance of the events surrounding my conception.

Backseat of my dad's '49 Chevy, the first time my parents had ever had sex and unprotected because my dad thought he wasn't fertile from all the x-rays that he'd had. That's what he claims, anyway. Just a month before my mom's graduation from high school.

My mom and dad were hippies, hangin' out, kind of dating but kind of not. My mom decided she wanted to have a kid, so she asked my dad if he minded if she got pregnant. He said no, and here I am!

I was an accident.
posted by krix 17 March | 17:00
I don't wanna know. And I was an accident, as were all my siblings. My mum was actually on the pill when she concieved me and my younger brother.
posted by deborah 17 March | 22:20
At the end of a long Xmas dinner several years ago - one accompanied by copious amounts of wine, I might add - my mother decided to inform those in attendance that I had in fact been concieved in a 1959 Corvette (not unlike this one). I wouldn't think it geometrically possible, but Mom wouldn't make something like that up.
