And on a totally unrelated note: I don't generally do meme's just ... 'cuz. But I found this one to be entertaining and educational (to me) and I see that some of you do these, so partake and enjoy. Or else. ;o)
Meme instructions:
1) Go to Wikipedia
2) In the search box, type your birth month and day but not the year.
3) List three events that happened on your birthday
4) List two important birthdays and one death
5) One holiday or observance (if any)
Events:
1) Rocky Mountain National Park formed (1915)
2) "Batman" the series debuted on tv (1966)
3) Led Zeppelin released their 1st album (1969)

Congratulations on taking such a big step!
I did this a looong time ago. Who knows, this meme mighta been my idea! (but somehow I doubt it)
If I recall correctly, one of the things that happened on my birthday was the first STD clinic opening in the US or something like that.
Yeah, I know. Impressive, right?
Anyway, Good Luck on your book and I'd be happy to preview it for you. because I'm sweet like that.

Good luck with your book. I so love your blog. My company announced another round of job cuts - 20% this time. My job was spared (yeah!), but I got to thinking, if I lost my job, maybe I could drive a cab. hmmm, but I live outside philadelphia. A female cabby in philly at night, 'fraid my stories would be too terrifying to blog about. Anyway, I love you, kiddo! can't start my day without see what happened in your night. ~Kimberly
yay! i fully support this book idea and will certainly buy it. ;)
