Sunday’s My Birthday So You Know What That Means

January 27, 2011 By Elizabeth

On Sunday, Jan. 30th, I’m going to be 44! Longtime readers know that since 2007 when I turned 40, I’ve asked for one thing, only one thing for my birthday. I’d like to get as many comments on my birthday post as I am years old! Which got me thinking – how have I done in previous years with that goal?

2010 – Happy Birthday to Me, I’m Now Forty Three

36 comments plus 6 retweets which show as trackbacks = 42 comments. Oh, so close!

2009 – It’s my Birthday! Have some Cake!

52 comments by February 3rd, WOW!

2008 – When I woke up this morning I was 41

73 comments by Feb. 4th, amazing!

2007 – When I woke up this morning I was 40. Felt the same.

122 comments by Feb. 1st! And most of them on the 30th!

Since this January 30th is a Sunday, I’m going to assume that most readers won’t start stopping by until Monday the 31st, which is totally fine of course! If you happen to stop by this Sunday, there will be a birthday post and I hope you’ll leave a comment! If I got 44 comments ON Sunday, that would be so awesome.

It would kind of be cheating to copy/paste comments left on Facebook into comments here, wouldn’t it?

So anyway my dears, back to wiping Kaitlyn’s very runny nose and getting the bills paid. I suggested to Chris that my bday gift from the kids be either The Social Network or Inception on Blu-ray, and I asked him to take me to a movie although I haven’t even looked to see what’s on that I might want to see. Anyone seen anything good lately?
