Birthday

Happy Birthday to Vivi (a few hours early)!!
She is a published poet, but never mentions it. She sings songs to her cat... about her cat. Her addictions include hot tea, Robert Downey Jr.,weepy ballads, and cleaning. She has a wicked sense of humor and is always quick with the most reassuring, sound advice. She looks good in orange (and, really, who looks good in orange?). Her storytelling includes hysterical facial expressions (it makes relaying even the most basic information way better). A true scholar of the arts, she moves between languages and disciplines with the most astute observations. She likes corn dogs and onion rings. She loves teen dream movies, Barbra Streisand, and Tom Waits. It was her idea for the three of us to do this blog thing.
Sounds pretty awesome, right?
She is.

  5. She also looks good in yellow.

    She's amazing to my children and Lorelei's, she always drives to my house and never makes me drive to hers, she gives good advice, she makes bad TV good, she gives the best presents, she has great taste in movies, and she made working a 9-5 in a cold, gray cubicle land not only tolerable, but enjoyable. And THAT'S a feat.

    Happy birthday, Viv!

  6. Lorelei, thanks for making me cry with your incredibly sweet post(I don't know about the orange, but I do know I don't look good with red puffy eyes).
    And thank you everyone for the lovely birthday wishes. I really appreciate them so much. :)
