I know this may not matter as much to anyone else as it did to me when I first saw it - but I found this really neat blog called "Sweet Site of the Day" where I found a site called Famous Like Me. It was just for kicks and giggles - so I went over there to check it out. There was a long list of names I didn't know that came up for my birthday - but you'll never guess who shares my EXACT birthday - to.the.year - February 28, 1970 - - - Lemony Snicket. His real name is Daniel Handler - and he is the author of The Series of Unfortunate Events. I know it may not mean a thing - and it sounds somewhat superstitious - but he's a writer too!!!!! Coincidence? I think not! It was a day of words and grammar; a day that writers were born. Me and Lemony Snicket! Ha!

That is neat!!! My oldest read the entire series of Unfortunate Events books. He loved them!
ReplyDeleteMy two oldest started reading those together on their own- it was really sweet. They seemed to enjoy getting deliciously scared!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoy Sweet Site of the Day! Thanks for mentioning it, and I hope you keep coming back for more ;-)
ReplyDeleteDoesn't that make you almost famous too?
ReplyDeleteI checked out the link. At least you share your birthday with someone most of us have actually HEARD of!!! I was born September 18, 1960 and share my birthday with Wolfgang Bahro the "famous" actor I'm sure every one recognizes!!!! Ha Ha! That was fun even if the guy is pretty obscure!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I went to that site and it listed a lot of names on my b-day but none that I recognize.
ReplyDeleteI have given you an award. Come by and see!
