Under a blue moon: A special day

A special day

Yesterday my e-mail was so slow - just the occasional special offer on watches, software and, umm, enhancement products I might be interested in if I was a man with low self-esteem.

I try not to get wrapped up in the stats of this site, or the comments (which I ADORE but try not obsess about) but I was kind of surprised no one commented on my last post. I thought it was kind of funny. Then just before I went to bed I looked at it and realized there WERE comments. Silly how happy that makes me. Turns out all the e-mail notification were going into my spam folder (why the eight billion watch offers never do is a mystery).

I see I'm not the only one with laliophobia.

I am taking the day off of work today and heading up to San Francisco with my sisters, cousins and nieces for dim sum at our favorite restaurant. We are celebrating my arrival on this earth forty-some odd years ago. It's going to be quite the outing - there are eight or nine of us going. On a weekday no less! I wasn't the only one that had to ask for time off in order to go (a special thank you to my sister Trish's coworker - Thank you Linda! I appreciate you covering for her).

My nephew gave me my gift on Sunday, since his Spring break was over and he had to head back to school. He gave me a monogrammed mug and besides the pretty shape of it the best thing is that it doesn't matter if you are left or right handed. You can see the monogram either way. Usually all you right handed people get the pretty side and us left handed people get to look at the plain backsides.

Have a wonderful April Fool's Day everyone!
