Or six. Happy birthday, Ibri! (Why are you all complicating it? If I remember correctly, it has been agreed in some of the first posts of hers to call her Ibri, or am I imagining things?)

Thanks, all. You have now exceeded the sum total of the other members of my family (of which only one still has bothered to offer any kind regards for the day. The other six... well, living or dead, only one other has bothered to make note of my birthday for the last 20 years. I haven't even heard from my brothers since our father died three years ago. Isn't dysfunctionality wonderful? :P). The sail was quite lovely, and we'll be off for dinner in an hour or so. It's definitely quality, not quantity, when it comes to relationships.
 As for my screen name, Ibrin or Ibri is fine, and I'm not the least bit offended by being called "he." As someone once said, "On the internet, no one can tell you're a dog," nor can they necessarily tell your gender. I've been on boards for years, and no matter how often I mention my husband or the fact that I'm a woman, people still pop up now and again, quite surprised by the revelation. With an androgynous name, who'd know? It actually amuses me a bit, rather like some of my cousins that even now, react with astonishment to discover I'm married. It's only been 30 years...

Oh my... the third one...
 But yes, a very good birthday to you Legate! Let's see if we can arrange something for you belatedly here in Finland as you come here... Hooray! ...anyway... And a very good birthday to you Ibrin as well! Maybe we'll have time one day to discuss the musical envirovment of the Middle-Earth... I'd hope we'd have that time...

Happy birthday to all, and I hope to know all of you better by next year!
And Nogrod, I'd like that chance, too (and thanks for the good wishes). Most people I know are music listeners, not performers or composers (which I appreciate as well), and the closest I come to deep musical discussion with them is when I show them some of my compositions in progress, and they ogle at the cool way the Sibelius program scrolls along, displaying the score while it's playing. Entertaining, but just not the same....
