(It’s AF’s day to post, but I’m stealing her spot. Briefly.)

Earlier this year, I had a post all ready to go for when AF’s book was published. I had quotes. I had balloons. I had confetti. I also had the publishing world, which never seems to stick to a hard/fast date for publication. People were squealing about their bookstore copies before she’d even had her official book launch.

I couldn’t figure out when to make a fuss then, but heck, I always know when it’s her birthday!

Many happy returns of the day, chick!

I kind of couldn’t resist this little .jpg – I mean, how often does one have a birthday girl, leaning her chin on her hands, who could also double as a floating head coming out of the table with a pillow or something behind her? Gotta love it.
