Birthday Month ’08


Gary reminded me that it is indeed my Birthday Month again. Start the 31 days of celebration!

And lo, what arrived on the second day of the Birthday Month? Sock Zombie!

Note the casual way my Sock Zombie reclines. “Hey, baby,” my zombie says, “Check out my tiny wooden skull earring.”

Oh, and the photo above was taken with my new iPhone. But, more important, an Erin-crafted Sock Zombie!

On the next day of the Birthday Month, there was the Birthday Celebration at the S__________s. I am convinced Mr. and Mrs. Wonderful are on to me. Tell me what you think: Mrs. Wonderful talked so emphatically without swallowing that she needed a bib because food kept falling out on to her bosom. AND she fetched Mr. Wonderful a string of dental floss and he flossed at the table. Because he was with family, he said, and that was true. I considered picking my nose in response but I couldn’t bring myself to do it.

What do you think? Have my in-laws outed me?

  1. You should visit our blog where we have ongoing sock critter sagas (and yes, we also have a sock zombie named Cody) at sockcritterchronicles.blogspot.com. My sister creates the sock critters, and I contribute stories.Does it frighten you that you know so many people who floss at the table? Yikes.-Heidi
