That work related post on Friday the 8th could be an interesting one….that is my last day at this current job. I could take a picture of one of the most hung-over looking creatures ever that morning. See, Thursday of next week is probably my going away party….

Yayyyyy!! That’s gonna be a great Thursday and Friday! Oh I definitely have to see hung-over photos. :D

I think I’ll celebrate the chocolate mint day the whole month of February. Are you with me?

Superman’s birthday? Boo!!!! Some fun ones though!

Hi stranger! So funny that my birthday is also “Introvert appreciation day,” since I am 100% introvert.
Just wanted to pop in and say hi. I had forgotten to change the feed in bloglines, so I have some catching up to do.

Suze: I’m totally with you on that one!
Manuel: Aww, I’m telling Superman that you booed him. ;)
Ashburnite!! It’s been too long! I’ll have to add your birthday on here for that day! I feel introverts should have a special day, as do extroverts.
I hope all is well with you!

This is so my month…hearts, chocolate, monkeys, useless things, Johnny Cash, polar bears, and library loving! I should just live in February!

Laura B: I saw the Polar Bear holiday on another site, and the thing about Library Lovers and I just HAD to put those on here! It is definitely your month! :)

Why am I not surprised that LauraB.’s birthday is on Valentines Day. She’s so sweet, it’s perfect.
