When is your birthday?: July 19

What's the easiest thing ever to do?: aside from wasting away the best years of my life insomniblogging taking the Hamlet's path of thought but ne'er action? uh, procrastinating is easy (though it builds up a certain mafia-like interest payable in stress and disfunction).
