My sexy shower cap, courtesy of lovely Stephanie (thanks so much, I never take it off)
I have neglected you. And me and this page too. Thank you for the birthday wishes you sent in my mail and on Facebook and all corners of the internet I have contaminated. You are so nice and I am so awful. This birthday was all about the realization that I am in fact an awful person but that I am not too awful not to like myself and I do. I suck but like myself and I just realized. It’s my birthday gift to me.
Death by chocolate
So, the story behind the shower cap photos (I have many) is this: Last night, while I was working with the magazine’s photographer, M was browsing the computer and found them. What would you do if you found compromising photos of your better half, while in the presence of others? Would you
a. Minimize them instantly, open a random window and pretend you are reading your email?
b. Minimize them instantly and send them to your mobile to laugh at your leisure?
c. MAXIMIZE them instantly and shout "Hey, look at you here! He he he, what were you thinking, sending kisses in that shower cap?" while turning the monitor towards the guests’ side?
Well, let me give you a hint. It’s not a or b if you are M.
So, I thought it was only fair that I should post this photo of him. Actually, I should have named it after the history conference he is about to take part in, so that people googling it, would see this, but I have a heart. And that brings us back to why I like me although I suck.

Happy belated birthday - and that’s one very glamorous shower cap. Though it does suit you a wee bit better than M:)

Happy Birthday and thank you for the hilarious post.
I suck too in all the best ways.

I think M must be related to my family. They’d choose C as well. The revenge photo is well worth it though.
And you don’t suck, and if you’re awful, then you are in ways that I am too.
PS - Please keep contaminating the internet, and more frequently, if at all possible

Lovely shower cap, and I like the new look of your blog, too! Happy belated birthday

Happy, happy, happy, happy… happy, happy day of remembering your birth (I have no memory of my own entry into the world… some things are better forgotten ;o)
PS> You DON’T suck! I suck WAY more which means, by comparison, you clearly are failing in the SUCK department. Everything is relative.

Happy birthday.
March 21st, 2008 at 8:29 pm
Hahahah! This is so funny!
I guess it depends, but in some situations I’d choose C. Why not?
It’s fantastic that you decided to like yourself even though you suck…After all, considering the amounts of people out there who would publish your compromising pictures all over town, you’re not too bad, I say.

you look adorable!
March 21st, 2008 at 10:23 pm
First of all, you do not suck! If i were M i would minimize the photographs instantly, open a random window and pretend i am writing at my blog. However, when the photographer left our house i would tell you how beautiful you are at these photos. You are so playful and sweety.
Anyway, you had your birthday and you had the right to do whatever you want!
It is definite that you have heart and i laugh very much with this post!
Many many wishes, health, positive energy, love and happiness to you and your family!

I agree with vesper de vil, you ARE adorable and you do not suck. It’s a great photo!
I’d like to vote for tagging M’s photo with the name of his conference, even as a joke. I suppose that means I’m heartless and I suck.
P.S. I love how the photos at the bottom all change randomly.

I say like Jody Foster just did in Maverick - “Damn! There you go being likeable again!” - and you do
Which is why you like yourself too, of course, just like we do

Hey…:-) I’ve just realized how late I am in wishing you all the best for your birthday… I hope you still accept wishes and had a great time celebrating, so here it is… tada tadahh… all the best for you and your loved ones, btw which birthday was it? The 23rd, 24th?
March 25th, 2008 at 8:07 am
I agree with the liking you part. I don’t see the ’suck’ part. You don’t suck, unless it’s through a straw. Then you have to suck or else how are you going to get all the yummy milksake out of the glass?
Happy Belated Birthday wishes to the least suckiest and most interesting people I know.
March 25th, 2008 at 2:07 pm
Ha ha.. this is so funny! Happy Birthday to You! And you don’t suck at all!
March 27th, 2008 at 9:35 am
I suck. I didn’t wish you Happy Birthday. You are AWFULly awesome. Too awesome to like though, sorry. You are a hoot! Your shower cap is indeed quite sexy, I must say, especially on M. Will you just keep on entertaining me and entertaining me forever with your blog? I think you will.
March 27th, 2008 at 10:21 am
You are just too funny. You look so very cute in your shower cap.
I am so sorry I missed your birthday. You know I send you hugs and best wishes.
You are one of my favorite people…I have to argue…You don’t suck.
Many more Birthday hugs,

thank you all so much! I’ve been away for a few days, to a northern town in Greece and I brought back lots of photos which you are going to see soon. Thanks for the wishes, the cards, the gifts. I looooove you.
