All children should have the middle name "McGee," so that later you can call them "Smartypants McGee" or "Paste-Eatin' McGee" and mean it.

Have no idea what my tenth birthday was like now that lj says it. The vaguest idea of where we were even living tbh

― The Perks of Being a Wall St R (darraghmac), Thursday, 2 March 2017 14:45 (nine years ago)

(further reading of thread indicates a 7 year-old boy also in play, which might explain the marble run)

yeah can anyone recall their tenth birthday

― imago, Thursday, 2 March 2017 14:46 (nine years ago)

HBB

My ninth or possibly tenth involved five or six annoying friends from school coming over. My dad had said he'd rent a "hilarious" movie. He came back from the video rental with a Bud Spencer film. Thanks dad. Everyone hated it and after some fighting and tears and extra candy to settle everyone down the party ended early.

What?! Mission Accomplished (I feel old). And happy birthday to Beeps.

― DJI, Thursday, 2 March 2017 19:12 (nine years ago)

Best wishes to all concerned. (I was not a big ilx participant at that time, but I also have a daughter turning 10 shortly so I empathize.)

(Also, when I see this thread title I think "There must be 50 ways to stay in your mother.")

Happy birthday Beeps! On my 10th birthday I got a digital watch that played the Yellow Rose of Texas.

Too late. I am old. But upon reflection, I just feel tired more than I feel "old". Anyway, I do recall this thread when it started. I have no doubt Beeps is a precocious, amazing young person and I wish her every happiness on her natal anniversary. Go, Beeps!

I can't believe there are so many of those things that your kid actually has a bunch of different ones that my kid doesn't have

― El Tomboto, Saturday, 4 March 2017 23:10 (nine years ago)

She close to 100 now. Kid loves animals. She wants to volunteer at a animal shelter but she's to young. I've written to a bunch of local shelters to she if they'll let her read to abused animals and so far I've got one positive response! Yay!!
