Not pictured: extremely sore throat. Ow.
Of course, I don’t feel older yet, but I did wake up early which is…kind of a first for me. Now it’s only a matter of time before I’m going to bed at 7 p.m. just so I can wake up at 4 a.m. because, to quote my cheery grandmother, “I’ll sleep when I’m dead.”
But I just want to point out that I took a picture of my 30-year-old self at 6ish in the morning. Just for you. Because I love the internerds and being able to document even the most insignificant details of my life has been such an awesome exercise so far. I started blogging when I was just a wee 23-year-old with a tiny baby and a world of confusion. Now I’m…uh…well the morning’s no time for self-reflection.
Since our life is such a comedy of errors, the husband will spend a good portion of today with an orthopaedic surgeon. He sliced his pinky right good while we were carving pumpkins last night and wasn’t able to move the joints above the cut. I told him that he probably cut a tendon and needed to go the ER, but first he sat down and googled his condition, which I found really amusing.
Happy Halloween, dudes. I hope you all are in sugar comas by sundown!

I hope it’s a delightful day. I’d sing to you but most people don’t consider that a “gift”.

Happy Happy! As I recall (it was a while ago) my 30s were a fantastic decade. I hope yours is too.
Thanks to the photo (you look like a very happy 30 year old) I am positive I walked past you going into the library earlier this week. It was like I was back at BlogHer, seeing all the blogging celebs.

Sore throats and sliced pinkies for your birthday? That blows kdiddy. You need some peanut butter cups and a diamond.

Ooof. Sorry about the pumpkins taking their revenge upon your husband. It’s like that M. Night Shyamalan movie where the ficus trees cause everyone to throw themselves under riding mowers, only this time it’s pumpkins. Oh! Tag line! “The Happening II: It’s Happening Again Only This Time It’s Pumpkins”. Happy birthday. Sweetney sent me.

Belated Happy Birthday. I think you and Tom and Kingston are a wonderful family, and reading your blog makes me feel like you better than I really do. Next year in Detroit, baby!

How come you can look that cute early in the morning? I should despise you, but I can’t because you rock.
Blurg!
Happy Belated Birthday, kdiddy! I keep seeing kdd license plates all around Virginia.
