It's my friend's sister's birthday today. And for her, it only comes once in every four years. That's a bummer no doubt, but unless you're dumb enough not to celebrate it on the 28th and get all the gifts, everything is alright I guess. Every year, about 4 million people are born on this date, and that includes more than 200,000 in the U.S. alone. Those people are special in a sense, since they all share something most people don't and can't have. I really like how that sounds, and myself I've always wanted to be able to write with my left hand. It just sounds so unconformist to me. Not that I wanna be 'too unconfirmist', like eating fluorescent bulbs or pulling my cheeks 6 inches off my face... that would just put me in the freak section at Ringling Bros.

Some people even celebrate leap year just for the sake of it, like the town of Anthony in Texas that calls itself the Leap Year Capital of the World and holds 4 day celebratations every leap year.

I, myself, am just happy to have been invited to a birthday party on this day at T.G.I Friday's. But I always thought Bennigan's was a better place for birthdays... though I've never been to neither.
