Hope my comment wasn’t taken as snark! As a lifelong Knicks fan (though originally from the suburbs of New Haven and having only lived in the City in the nineties), I spent a long night with family and friends celebrating their victory. So I really did wonder this morning, for a brief moment in my post celebration haze, whether I had lost time and had in fact missed her birthday and that she was just too polite to mention it! Though as a Chicagoan and lifelong Bull’s fan, I doubt she would have missed the opportunity to needle me about the real life consequences of my “misplaced” fandom.
I don’t understand how you could confuse Hera with Gaius. Now if you had confused Octavian and Gaius *that* would make sense.

I too confuse June and July and most other words that belong to the same category and have similar sounds.
