raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens...

are nice...

but they are NOT my most favoritest things....
my favoritest thing include...natural ice chapstick...candy...and some glue sticks.....

and i don't know if you have heard.....(i DID tell you to write it on your calendars...)

it's my BIRFDAY......and

I'm going to give away a pile of my favoritest things...

cause i'm awesome like that.

and some other crap ...(oh...and you get a pair of socks...not just one sock.)
leave me a comment--this giveaway is ONLY OPEN today. YOU KNOW. IT's my birthday. (how many times can i drop it?) (and you don't have to leave me a birthday....my intention is not to fish for birthday wishes.....but if that's how it turns out....so be it)

oh. and curtis dropped by and wanted to sing me a little ditty. (you know..for my birthday.)



oh. curt. you are so sweet.

  28. Happy Birthday!

    With my perpetual "watching what I eat" diet, I can never justify buying tootsie rolls. If I WON them, though, I'd have to eat them, right? It would be the polite thing to do. Oh, and the other stuff is great, too.
