I’m taking the day off to celebrate the above Cheeseball turning 12. I’d say more but I don’t want to talk about it.
Also: A happy and safe 4th to my American readers.
So 3/14/15 @9:26:53 is a very special time to me. If you don’t know why off the bat, please just move to another post. If you do get it, read on.
I am throwing what will be my second annual Pi day party this year. My first was 3 years ago though. So there has been a gap. Between drama, funds, and those days falling on week days, I can’t totally be blamed. However, this year is heralded as the greatest Pi Day. (I argue that the greatest Pi Day was 3/14/1592, and was probably an ordinary day, and no one appreciated Pi Day back then I’m betting, but no one listens to me.) So yes, Saturday we’ll party as they should have in 1592! Only less… well… we have better pie now!
So please eat a piece of pie on Saturday in honor of an irrational number that does magnificent things!
Meanwhile, I’m sure I’ll eat more than my fair share!
So I started this not long before Sambam’s 3rd birthday and apparently couldn’t come up with 10 reasons without resorting to “I actually love her” or “Murder is wrong”, so I’m going to revisit it now that she’s well into OMG THREE YEAR OLDS ARE PURE EVIL. Ahem. They are also more entertaining.
Alright! I should schedule this to drop around her half birthday.
So we all damn well better give her a round of applause!
Mom,
I have no clue if you still read over here? I know you were an avid fan for years but as I went quiet in the past year or so, I can imagine you maybe just assumed I’m still quiet. Either way, happy birthday to you, mom. I love you. Thank you so deeply for all the support over the past year and a half. I know I’ve all but bleed you dry. It’s been a rough one.
Sorry this present isn’t as awesome as what I gave you last year.
FYI for readers: I gave her tickets to see Phantom of the Opera live. There was no beating that.
After the past few years I fully give up on having “this year will certainly be better” expectations. So really, I’m just going to take it as it come and do as I must.
Also, I don’t really believe in New Years Resolutions. Other than maybe “survive the next 365 days”. Most resolutions are life changing things and generally speaking, people try to carry out more than one at the same time, and usually with little plan. So yes, as great as “Eat healthy, exercise more, and stop smoking/drinking/doing drugs/sleeping around/whatever” sounds, chances are…
But, I’m not opposed to goals. So:
See? Just little goals to make my year the best it can be.
Do you have goals? Resolutions? Survival plans? Please feel free to share them in the comments!
