Feliz cumpleaños Emily!

(Insert picture of Sarah and Emily here)
I was looking at the pictures on my computer that we have of me and the birthday girl, but as it turns out, there is  no photo of just me and her, and the ones we have from my birthday are all very bad.  As in, I have my eyes closed in one, Emily's staring into the middle distance in another pic, and I have crazed Walmart greeter smile/eyes in another one.  So it is mostly for my benefit that those pictures remain in the teeny little Nikon Transfer file and nowhere on the internet.  But since I cannot provide you with a picture, here is a song I wrote for Emily and sang to her on the phone, much to her horror.  
Happy birthday to you!
 You are - - +2!
You've been my buddy since first gra-a-a-a-a-ade!
A-a-a-a-a-and we'll be friends 'til our hair fades!

(Which it won't, thanks to small miracles like hair dye for the middle-aged!)
My original plan had been to get as many people as possible to sing her the classic Happy Birthday, like on the bus or in the school lobby, but I decided against it because
a.  I'd rather not talk to the creepy kids in the front lobby.
b.  I don't have anything to call her with.  (Excepting my grand singing voice!)
c.  I dream bigger than I achieve.

I also feel as though the world should know that today is Nick Jonas's 18th birthday.  CONGRATULATIONS EMILY!  YOU SHARE YOUR BIRTHDAY WITH A JONAS!  WOOOO!  
That poor, poor girl.
Because I am lacking a picture of my and my bestie, and I even GOOGLE SEARCHED her in the hopes of finding a picture, please accept this poor subsitute picture of a cat about to eat a small, fluffy bird.
I took a nap today.  And I'm cool enough to admit it.
-Sarah

  1. No reason you can't achieve what you dream. No limits...

If you comment, I'll give you a muffin! Okay that was a lie. I'll give you a lollipop! Nope, still not right. Hang on... How about I give you a shiny gold star sticker? Grrrrrr, forget it! I never was good at bribery.
