It's my birthday today. It's a big, yucky one and I've been grumpy about it for weeks. So, what is a
old lady girl supposed to do to feel better? How about giving away a nice hardcover Neil Gaiman? Entry is easy -- just leave a comment below and let me know you want the book and one thing that makes you feel better on a bad day. I'll make this open internationally, winner to be chosen on 4/27. (Be sure I have a way to contact you!)
Not going gracefully,

Aw, I hope your birthday improves, madam! I'd love to get the book, now that my review copy has expired from my nook. :) One thing that makes me feel better on a bad day is making cheese fries. They are delicious, and I make them deliciouser by dipping them in ranch dressing that I buy in pints from a local seafood restaurant. Nom nom nom nom. :D I'm at readingtheend AT gmail DOT com.
ReplyDeleteThis may be bad, but I always go to Waffle House for comfort food. There's nothing better on a bad day than taking a book, sliding into a booth, ordering greasy, cheesy hash browns and crisp bacon, and just sitting and reading!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, and don't feel too bad. You've leveled up, after all!
Happy birthday! I have a hard copy of this one myself, so no need to enter me in the drawing :-)
ReplyDeletewhat makes me feel better on a bad day is drinking hot chocolate :)

crawling into bed, AC blasting, a good run of Netflix or a couple of books to alternate. And a nap. I will get follow up comments. Happy Bday!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the birthday grumpiness; had one of my own not too long ago (not a big one yet, but I'm getting too close to be able to ignore it!). Very selfless of you to offer a giveaway in celebration!
ReplyDeleteI reconciled myself to my birthday by completing a difficult swim workout for the first time ever. (I swim with a group and I always used to skip parts of the workout, thinking I didn't have it in me to do 2000m. On my birthday I did the whole thing just to prove I could, and I've been doing it all ever since.)
I'd love to get a copy of this book, but last time something I won got shipped to me from the States, i had to pay $17 in customs fees! So I'll get my own copy, and good luck to the others!
Well, I hope you have a good day! :) Let's see, I read comfort books, eat chocolate, and watch old MST3K episodes.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! The movie Matilda always brightens my day. I loved the book as a kid but the movie puts me in a better mood faster
