OMG. I'm just thrilled that I remembered this year. I told Jeff earlier this week that Saturday was going to be my half-birthday, but that I'd be surprised if I even remembered on Saturday. Usually, around the 19th, I gush "aww, shucks! I forgot yet again!"
So, folks, I am please to announce that today, I am exactly 26.5 years old.
Enough of that nonsense. Since I am still trying to get over this sore throat sickness thing that's boggin' me down, I've spent the last five hours on the couch in which I started and finished a new book, Diablo Cody's Candy Girl...A Year in the Life of an Unlikely Stripper. Cody is the writer behind the acclaimed film Juno and apparently has some other screenplays in the works too. Who knew she was a stripper from Minnesota? Well, actually I did know that because I saw her on Oprah a few weeks ago, but I didn't know she wrote a book about it. It's safe to say it was an entertaining read seeing as I just sat here and read the whole thing, only putting it down to take a whiz and get a few more pieces of beef jerky. I can't remember the last time I sat and read a whole book at one time since my friend Dannielle, from my days at the Jewish Day School and I competitively read The Babysitter's Club books. We'd have a sleep-over and each produce our newest Ann M. Martin Schoolastic "novels" (there are probably hundreds of these books) and when we were done with our own (usually took 1-2 hours to complete one book), we'd trade and read each other's. I think we had a similar reading pace so it worked out pretty good for us.
And now it's time for a random video!
