I wanted to make sure to say, “thank you” to everyone that sent me their warm and thoughtful birthday wishes yesterday. I struggled letting people know it was my birthday; using the wicked social medians, both on this blog and FB, because it seemed a little very self-indulgent. However, I ultimately decided, it’s my birthday for heaven’s sakes and I wanted to share that with those that I’ve met out here in blogland. Plus, I certainly wouldn’t want to miss wishing others a happy, happy, by not knowing about someone’s birthday, thus my cyberspace birthday post.

So with all that said, thank you again to each and every person that communicated their very special birthday wishes to me yesterday. Each of you made me feel very special.

I’m not sure how many of you are like me in the respect to your birthday, but I don’t celebrate just one day…I tend to celebrate the entire month…yes, that is more self-indulgence. And go ahead and pour it on me, baby! Of course, the actual day is the most special for me, which usually begins with a telephone call from my mom each year. Her message is always the same: a pleasant and very sweet reminder that I was born at 3:00 a.m., many, many years ago. It’s a tradition, I’ve grown to cherish, I suppose.

Speaking of traditions, to further celebrate my birthday all month long, I’m heading a matinee today. Yeah, I know, watching a movie in the middle of the afternoon, on a school day, no less, is the ultimate in self-indulgence, isn’t? I’m very excited to see the recently released Coen Brothers film, A Serious Man. I’ll write a review at some point on my thoughts of this black comedy. Here’s the film trailer below:

Una vez más, muchas gracias a todos los cumpleaños de mis amigos los deseos-
