Yesterday was Thomas

Yesterday was Thomas Jefferson's birthday! Happy birthday Thomas Jefferson (I know, I should have done this yesterday, but I had way too much schoolwork). Actually, this week there's been a lot of birthdays. At school, there were just a ton of people walking around with giant balloons tied to their backpacks. Anyways, I know this is kind of boring but I feel a strange compulsion to celebrate Thomas Jefferson's birthday. Okay, so how many famous (and also not living) people's birthday(s?) (Merlin's beard Mango, come on use your grammar!) do you know?  Basically, the only one I know is Thomas Jefferson, but I used to know more. Also how many of you have April birthdays, because there seems to be a lot?

As the biggest Hamiltrash (Hamilton fan) person ever, I LOVE Thomas's birthday! Even though he wasn't my favorite historical figure, he did invent mac and cheese. I know, random, but still. And helped create the US, the constitution, so much. So yeah, he had some good things about him.

I also have the Hamilton calendar, including all the historic birthdays, so I technically know those, but not to memory. They are just there on my wall, so large and beautiful. But ones that I am really proud to have is Alexander Hamilton, Elizabeth Schuyler, Aaron Burr, Angelica Schuyler, Margarita (Peggy) Schuyler, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson (T.Jeff in my mind), and so forth. 

And my birthday was April 9th, so last Sunday! I do agree, it seems so many of us have April birthdays. 

It is NEVER strange to celebrate T. Jeff's birthday, nor anyone else's. I mean, even if it was, the lot of us would still do it anyways, you know? So keep on being you!
