You’re all probably wondering …. A what? *A Nick Phillips????* Don’t worry, you’re not alone with that, Nick at Anything Goes is probably wondering what the heck I’m also talking about. Or, if I’ve finally fallen off my rocker and can’t get up :)

So, here’s the quickie explanation – been too busy imposing a belated summer holiday in the last two weeks to respond to all the memes and tags that The Diva Network has received *thank you, thank you*, and therefore, I am pulling a *Nick Phillips* by doing it all at one shot.

Appropriately so, I will start with Nick – 1. The Birthday Meme

Instructions:
1. Go to Wikipedia and type in the month and day of your birth.
2. Write three events, two births, one holiday and then tag 5 more buddies with it.
3.There are 5 slots in this Birthday Meme. As you are tagged, remove the name in the first slot and move everyone one place up, adding your name to the bottom.

I’m a Gemini born June 9th.

3 EVENTS

1856 – 500 Mormons leave Iowa City, Iowa and head west for Salt Lake City, Utah carrying all their possessions in two-wheeled handcarts.

1909 – Alice Huyler Ramsey, a 22-year-old housewife and mother from Hackensack, New Jersey, became the first woman to drive across the United States. With three female companions, none of whom could drive a car, for fifty-nine days she drove a Maxwell automobile the 3,800 miles from Manhattan, New York, to San Francisco, California.

1961 – Michael J. Fox, Canadian-born actor
1963 – Johnny Depp, American actor

I know, I know, it says only two… But can I help it if my birthdate came with bragging rights?

1 Holiday

Roman Empire paganism – third day of the Vestalia in honor of the goddess Vesta
So, why am I not surprised that my birthday falls on a paganism holiday??
