Apparently not. I understand that its rude, along with asking someone their weight. Happy Birthday Weasy!

It doesn't matter, we all know she's turning 22. After all, we know she can drink, but there's no way she could be any older than that!

Actually, I believe you can drink at 16 in the UK.

I knew that. I was testing to see if you were paying attention. She's eighteen, of course.

I think she's perpetually young.

In any case, we know that Quart is at least twice as old as she is.

Says sabreur, being mean....

Married at 18? I wouldn't wish that on anyone I like.

Anyway,

Happy birthday to you
You're a weasel named "Lou".
You Fence like a demon,
And we all think you're cool.

Hope you had a great birthday.

Good thing she's not married, then, huh?

"Mr. Louweasel" is in fact her boyfriend, who just recently met her parents.

...

Scary, the things we know about her...

Thanks everyone for all your good wishes (and songs/poetry!).

For the record, let's set a couple of things straight.

Sabreur, in England you can legally buy and drink alcohol from the age of 18. (You can also buy it to drink with a meal in a restaurant from the age of sixteen, but a lot of people don't know this and it isn't a priviledge many take advantage of).

Mollusk, Soldier is right in saying I'm not married. I refer to my boyfriend of nearly 10 months as "Mr Louweasel" because it sounds nicer (imho) than "my boyfriend" and I don't care to use his name on a public board. Using "mr" for your boyfriend was a well-established convention on another board I used to post on.

Many have been very complimentary about my age. To own the truth (and as Jeff has met me I may as well tell you how old I am before he grasses me up!) I have now turned 27. Fortunately my weaselly fur hides the wrinkles!

A belated but no less sincere 'hippo birdie two ewe' from this direction, Madam Weasel! But I do note one other thing that needs to be set straight, if I may borrow a phrase: at 27, one does not have wrinkles. I know this because I'm older than that and I don't have any wrinkles. (And I don't care what the doc says, I do NOT need glasses! I don't know why he insists that I do...)

Dear Louweasel, Jeff is far too polite (and has learned a tiny amount of manners, and would never divulge a lady's age. Certainly not one as charming as you. I hope your birthday was everything you wished it to be!

VorpalCat - I wanted to use ''hippo birdie two ewe", but thought it might be too obscure. I'm glad you used it.

I like to think of things as 'under-received' instead of 'too obscure' simply for the sake of my frail ego ... but then, I also like to think of caffeine as a food group.

Interesting though that the best guess was five years younger than I actually am.
I must type in a young way - not sure if this is good or bad!

I suppose so. But is it a let-down for people who think I'm a footloose, fancy-free studenty-type, to find out I'm nearer 30 than 20 (arg!), with a mortgage, a car, a pension plan and a responsible job in the civil service. I commute to the City, you know. Sometimes in a pinstripe suit.

Hey, I march to meals, wear a uniform every day, and get called "sir", sometimes by people younger than me. I've started a retirement fund, and have four to five jobs, depending on how you count. And I haven't hit twenty yet.

Plus, as you pointed out, I don't even smile!

No worries for you, I think.
