From The Mancave
$25 Birthday Giveaway From TBD
Thoughts:
I am old(er).
If it were any other year, I don’t think I would have done this—a change in number being a step towards my midlife crisis—so I figured I’d celebrate this not-so-momentous day with every single one of you. (Note: it is my actual birthday not my blogging birthday).
But as much as it is a numerically different day (for you and me both), it is still very much the same, and so you should all continue being awesome.
Giveaway Details:
(Please bear with me as it is my first time doing a TBD giveaway annnnnnnnnd I have no idea wtf I’m doing LOL.)
- One (1) winner may choose their prize(s) among published titles from The Book Depository up to a value of $25 CAD (Canadian)
- Opened internationally so long as The Book Depository ships to your country. (Check this link for full details)
- Giveaway begins on Sept 9, 2015 and ends Oct 10th, 2015 at 12:00AM EST
- The winning entrant will be contacted within 48-hours after the contest deadline. The winning entrant agrees to forfeit the prize if they fail to respond within a 48-hour period. Another draw will take place until a winner is claimed. Entries will be checked
- You must be 18 years of age to enter or have parental consent to provide me your mailing address
- The host agrees not to sell, trade, rent, or in any way distribute the contest winner’s personal information. The host is not responsible for any delays or damage sustained by the prize in transit

Wow! Thanks for the giveaway! 😀
If it helps with the whole aging malarkey, birthdays aren’t what’s important. What you do on the days between birthdays is what counts. I say that as someone who is lying in bed, sipping Baileys, and scrolling through WordPress, so I don’t know how comforting that will be for you.
Happy birthday!

True story: I’ve stopped keeping track of my age for a while now, so much so that even my mother has gotten confused, lol! But I mean, who’s really counting past your twenties anyway?!
Really, though, have a good one!

You definitely lose sense of time when you’re out of school. It’s all about the landmarks at that point. Marriage, house, kids, blah blah blah.
I would also say midlife and existential crisis but that’s all the damn time now-a-days LOLOL.

Old is good and bad, I guess. But hey, at least in like 20 years you can share your love of CoHo with your peanut (now dry roasted with age) and live goes on!

Each year older is a year wiser. I’ve never been bothered about aging, especially in the last few since I’m now a cancer survivor. According to my doctors each day for me is a surprising miracle.
