Happy UN-Birthday September 39ers



September 39ers Rock into Fall! 

Apologies to September 39ers for a late post. I’m going with “better late than never.” I'd joke and say we'll call it a ten-day hangover, but I know some of you would believe me! :-) Maybe I'm trying to hold off the end-of-year-crunch a bit longer ...

This time of year holds birthdays for many; a culmination of last winter’s friskiness. The end of this month also signals the beginning of our “busy season,” as we head into the dual-emotional beloved and detested holidays. (Shhh, I didn’t say Christmas, or even Halloween yet, but I smell the pumpkin spice …)

The Zodiac realm celebrates Virgo’s perfectionism and Libra’s gentle sense of balance, both formidable and lovable … fairly parallel to the Holidays, don’t you think?

Before we run headlong into turkey legs and mistletoe , this month is a great time to reflect on the past eight months … or the last eight years … or all the Septembers of your life … not only for our birthday buddies, but a thoughtful practice for everyone.

Find some quiet time and meditate on the year so far – this is your last chance to give it an overhaul in the present, before it becomes the past, and portends your future.

Then … let’s PAR-tay!
 
Don your fave sapphire shirt or dress and feel special, September 39ers – make it a day, weekend, or whole month filled with balloons and Morning Glories or the traditional Asters.

September birthday friends can move from negatively critical to insanely funny in a heartbeat. Perfect personality to complement the hot and cold climates that dog our days through a month that can’t decide if it’s part of summer or winter.

While you’re prancing about, celebrating, keep an eye out for some famous September birthday buds: Keanu Reeves (52 on 2nd), Sophia Loren (82 on 20th), Bill Murray (66 on 21st), Bruce Springsteen (67 on 23rd), and the lovely Ms. Olivia Newton-John (68 on 26th).
"Try to Remember" 1965 Kingston Trio (their 1963 album "#16")

Try to Remember ... the kind of September ... that was your best September and make it better!

Remember 39ers – Age is a number … LIFE is ATT-i-tude!

Happy UN-Birthday SEPTEMBER 39ers,
(Here’s lookin’ at you, kids – 39AHC Birthday 39ers, Barb, Jennifer, Thomas, Chad, Scott & Verne!))

Surf’s Up June 39ers



June 39ers Singin’ Surf Tunes!

Cowabunga, dude, let’s party hearty!
Goin’ to Surf City ♪…gonna have some fun…♪  

For years I’ve been urging you to celebrate birthdays not just for a day, but all month.

So let’s head into summer with International Surf Music Month! Thinking Boomer memories of Endless Summer (1966) and Gidget (TV, 1965).

But the surf craze began influencing our music as early as June 2, 1963, with the KRLA TUNEDEX music survey, charting these great twangy surf tunes in its top 40. 

Take a stroll down Memory Lane on your way to a 39 and Holding beach blanket bingo party:
# 7         SURF CITY                       JAN & DEAN
#12        Surfin U.S.A./Shut Down    The Beach Boys
#23        Crazy Days Of Summer      Nat "King" Cole
#28        Surf Walk                          Manuel & Renegades
#32        We're Going Surfin'             The Wailers

I threw in ol’ Nat King Cole’s song, ‘cause summer and surfin’ just go together, ya know? Like adding National Flip Flop Day – June 17th – to our list of reasons to celebrate!

Of course, dear 39ers, June is also more than daddy month, Father’s Day, June 19, and Limbo Rock beach parties. Put a spotlight on your 39er birthday and theme your party with:

June 6   YoYo Day

Whether you’re channeling your inner Gemini Twins (05/21 – 06/20) or kicking sand in your Cancer Crab mood (06/21 – 07/22), there is always a reason to party hearty.

You know the old adage, “Stop to smell the roses”? They’re June’s signature flower – don’t smell just one – grab a bunch! You deserve ‘em.

Happy UN-Birthday JUNE 39ers,
(Here’s lookin’ at you, kids – 39AHC Birthday 39ers, Sally, Christine and Melanie!)
