Happy birthday, Eisha!

“There are three hundred and sixty-four days when you might get un-birthday presents … and only one for birthday presents, you know.” — Lewis Carroll
My apologies that this is not book-related, but it’s a quick birthday greeting to Eisha, my blog partner-in-crime and true friend, who turns 22 today (tee hee). Eisha, this is a Miri Pi drawing for you; it’s a three-eyed dude (hey, she’s two) and a birthday balloon for you. I know it’s small, but when I try to make it bigger, it’s even more difficult to see. Anyway, happy birthday and may you celebrate with lots of wine and sweet words (to paraphrase Plautus — not that I’ve been reading Roman playwrights of late, but I saw that quote somewhere before). — Jules
Edit: Tech support is in the house. Happy birthday, Eisha. Also, I’m pretty sure that’s a nose, not a third eye… B
Tech support is no longer in the house…
Aw. You are sweeter than any words can say. And I had no idea Miri was so gifted. Thanks to both of you!

by Alison August 17th, 2006 at 12:03 pmNo, I was there when she drew it; the small dot under the eyes is a nose. Hey, Eisha, did you know you share a b’day with Sean Penn and Robert DeNiro?

Here’s wishing you the grandest of birthdays. Hope you are well!
by Chris Lance August 17th, 2006 at 6:48 pmWow! I am overwhelmed! Thank you all!
I had no idea this many people were actually reading the blog…
And I like the three eyes. If e.e. cummings can have a “goat-footed balloon man” then why not a three-eyed balloon man?
by eisha August 18th, 2006 at 8:50 amwell, folks might have gotten a little nudge from, ahem, someone about this *particular* post in order to wish you o! happy day. aw, you are obviously very loved. but, yes, i have no doubt that folks not only read the blog but have also bookmarked it, check it every five minutes, and constantly ponder the books we review. that’s the ticket! — jules
by Jules August 18th, 2006 at 9:35 amHappy birthday (one day late!) to you! I wish you all my very best for a fun year ahead!!!
by Leo Racicot August 18th, 2006 at 10:39 amNo one nudged me!
Happy day after!
by Betty McB August 18th, 2006 at 7:02 pmHappy Unbirthday, E! (I mean, it is two days late, now, huh). Best wishes on turning 22, (are you backdating or channeling Benjamin Button?)

Happy birthday, Eisha–albeit a bit late. Thanks for telling me about this site!
