….The doctor said to my mom, “Push!” Actually, this isn’t true for two reasons:
i. Mom had me thru C-Section. They never told her to push me out because when she had my older brother three years before me, she also had him thru C-Section. In Russia, once you have a child through C-Section, all the children that follow thereafter must also be had through C-Section – whether you can push or not. That was the law then. It mighta changed now.
ii. I was born in Russia….where they speak Russian. Even if the doctor had told her to push, he/she would have said “Push” in Russian. I’m sure the Russians have a word for that in their language. Heck if I know.
So before you go judging me, it wasn’t my fault that I was born thru C-Section. It obviously wasn’t because my head was too big to pass thru the birth canal. I was never given the chance to. What can I say? Right from birth, there were certain parts of the female anatomy I did not want to have ultra-close contact with – unless they belonged to me.
Soooo it’s my birthday today! Woulda written a long post thanking God for His grace and goodness in my life, but I decided to tell Him privately. Every couple needs their privacy, you know? Yes, I’m insinuating that God is my Man. Anyway, in case you’re wondering, I have no plans for today – other than being pampered by anyone and everyone – including God….and you, of course.
Sooooo……
*** Call if you wanna. If I don’t pick up, call again. I’ll like to talk to you.
*** Text if you wanna…. I’ll reply for sure.
*** E-mail if you wanna… I’ll reply that too.
But most importantly, put my gift in the mail, or else, I will show you my true colors. No try me ooo! Boy, I cannot wait to eat my birthday cake which Funmi will be buying me. It is tradition that she buys me cake. I think I need to call her and ask her to add ice cream to the list. Cake & ice cream…. yummy!!!
See you on Saturday, Jan 17th. Wish I could say I would return on Saturday as a different person (as per since I’m now a year older), but the koko of the matter is that I will continue to be as mischievous as I’ve always been. If the chance presents itself, I would definitely drug Funmi’s milk with Busola’s breast milk again. And if I meet Wes/Lee/Gbenga, I shall oblige him and then blog about it. Why shall I shy??? After all, I’m officially XX years old now. What else do people my age do?? I dunno. I have 365 days to explore. Stay tuned.
happy birthday Vera!

So here is your burfday present
http://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/stories/2009/01/12/daily17.html
Vera, I just heard that the husband i sent you might take longer than expected…something about him being overweight+immigration wahala…
since perfumes ain’t contraband, let’s do the shipping contrariwise, first I get my bottles of perfume and then I start the visa process for your husband, better deal????
