Saturday. That "has to work for its living" thing is regrettably true.

under fire whilst being smuggled into a rebel ditch vessel orbiting Silas 9.

I am the only one who survived, and the only one who knows what I know.

Please pray for me and the future of our people.

Tuesday. The graceful thing is bullshit. I'm as graceful as a wellington boot.

I was born in a hospital, but my colleagues were the ones who trashed Silas 9.

(Nothing personal, LT. It was strictly business.)

Monday. If like me you can't remember what day it was this will help.

It was.

That explains a lot.

arse_hat's link says I was born on an invalid date. No wonder things have never been quite right. I think I was born on a Monday though.

Monday. And all this time I thought it was a Wednesday.

Saturday here. Once I asked my dad what time it was when I popped out but all he could remember is that he was watching The Man From U.N.C.L.E. in the waiting room.

Saturday :) Also, the day before/during (depending what year) the summer solstice. probably explains a lot. but i'm too lazy to figure out what.

Sunday. My mom even remembers what time it was, but I don't.

Easter Sunday.

Wow, warbaby, you were really born with a caul? Do you have the gift?

posted by santee cooper 05 June | 21:55

Thursday, and yes, I definitely have far to go.

posted by deborah 05 June | 22:06

Heh. I was born at 4:20am, a fact that was far more impressive in high school.

posted by SassHat 05 June | 22:56

Saturday.
Where I come from (shut up!) people believe that if you are born on Saturday you can put a bad spell (aka an evil eye) on those who you don't like. Seriously.

heh! heh!
