10 Days and Counting...

...until the second feast in our Fall Festival of Fun -- my birthday. Plenty of time to purchase those Godivas [white, please], order the flowers, write me a card or email, buy me a laptop and generally enjoy the season which is my natal anniversary. In honor of my Catholic heritage, we might just make this high holy day into an Octave celebration, beginning on the eve of the day and lasting a full seven days afterward.
