Someone please tell me how Tuesdays sneak up on a person and manage to pass by unnoticed?
Last week I asked you to figure out which of the following was false.
1. My birthday is my favorite holiday.
2. I dated a guy with the same birthday as me.
3. Dear Man and I had our first date on my birthday
Nearly all of you guessed that #1 was false, but not for the reasons that you might think!
1. False - My birthday isn't my favorite holiday but mainly because it focuses on just me. I really don't care how old I am and most of the time I'm not even sure. I don't do anything to hide or deny my age.
2. True - Funny story on this one. I had only been dating the guy for a couple of weeks and I asked a friend what she thought I should give my date for our birthday. She thought just a card was appropriate. My date had the same conversation with his friend and they came up with the same answer. On our birthday we met to go out to dinner and we handed each other our cards, opened them up and discovered we had bought each other the exact same card!
3. True - Dear Man and I did have our first date on my 18th birthday. Well, the date started on the eveing before, but he didn't take me home until after midnight.
Okay, what three things can I offer you to choose from this week? How about the following:
1. I remember my childhood birthdays with great fondness.
2. A pet snake was given to me by an ardent admirer.
3. I own and treasure a positively hideous scarf and wear it with pride.
Take your time, but be sure to leave a comment before next Tuesday. Remember, it comes up fast! |

I never told you how funny my husband and I thought the Fizzy story was. You happened to relay it to us the week we were doing a bit of preliminary bird shopping with our girls, and I still find myself at the most random moments laughing about the thought of Fizzy singing, 'I'll fly away."
