Birthday stuffs!


On MojaveSis's blog you can see presents she sent me as they were wrapped. The box came today and I got to unwrap with her on the phone.

Included:
  • Keegan Lane Yarn in "Mojitos & Margaritas" color

  • hand-dyed yarn that sis kool-aid dyed (it smells like kool-aid which means son and I keep sniffing it)

  • a sock pattern I've been wanting (if you look on Sis's blog, it's the Tendril Embrace she's been working on)

  • a Starbucks card which I immediately registered. (do you know you can get most of the "flavors" added for free if you use a registered card?)

  • a brand new, shrink wrapped first edition of The Stand (1990 "uncut" version, not 1978 original). She won it at a silent auction. She said she bid on it because she knew it was one of my favorite books.

YAY! On birthday stuffs!

I wanted to send you a care package also but I have been sick. ;( Drat!

What plans do you have?

Happy birthday!

I’m not sure which version of The Stand I prefer. The cut version always felt too short, but the uncut version felt unnecessarily bloated. Sigh. But both are worthwhile.

I'm not sure that I've ever read the uncut version. I ignored King for quite some time and I still have some I love and some I don't care for at all. I think I read it first when the mini-series came out so I'm sure I read the uncut from the beginnning.
