I might have misled you a bit. Just a bit. Remember when I told you that I was just 21 a little while ago? Yes, yes… I mean when I nagged about age creeping up on me… yes, that day. Well, I also blogged about my upcoming birthday – a day I love by the way – but obviously, a new birthday means a new age. A bigger age.
The point is … while I was typing away about my upcoming birthday, I may have given the impression that said birthday is in a few days – or at least a few weeks. Did I forget to mention that my birthday is actually on January 14th? Silly me! I have to say that this is the first time I have started receiving birthday wishes from August! Tobenna even wished me a happy birthday in arrears. Nawa o! It’s either I have misled you or you all are an enthusiastic lot! Yeap…. definitely enthusiastic :=)
Speaking of birthdays, how can I conclude this post without wishing our very own Nefertiti a very big happy birthday!!!! Neffie, it’s 12:00 sharp. Technically, I am the first to say happy birthday. You never said I had to be the first to say it over the phone. So happy birthday once again. I have not forgiven you for having a baby before you even told us – your blog family – that you were pregnant, but that’s by the way. I’ll try not to mention it today. Wairraminute!! Did Neffie close down her blog, or is blogger on crack this midnight?! Neffie, if you’ve closed down your blog, then I retract this happy birthday parahraph I just dedicated to you.
Now, I know you’re all worried about what gifts to buy me for my birthday – yes, I know you want to get a headstart on it, but I assure you that I am working very hard on a list that will suit you and I very well. Despair not. I will not pick anything too cheap. I know how you just hate, hate, HATE it when I do that. It’s just that sometimes I cannot help but be considerate. ๐ Oh, well. Some people are just made to be nice i.e. me.
I finally got Nwoke Ocha back (on the 31st of August). For those that are confused, he’s my laptop. His keyboard – amongst a few other things – was replaced. It turns out I’ve been doing a lot of typing. Me? Noooo!!! I only update my blog every three days, tweet everyday, facebook every day, write and reply e-mails every day, do some writing most days, reply comments on my blog most days too. That’s not a lot of typing, is it? I bought Nwoke Ocha in October. It’s amazing that between October 2008 and August 2009, I have damaged his keyboard. Nawa o. Perhaps, I need a laptop with a heavy duty keyboard. Ideas, anyone?
Please, please, please… help me welcome Rosie to Blogville. She was one of my co-hosts for the ‘Female, Accomplished, Over 30, and Single’ show, and she has joined us on Blogville. Yay!! Go over there and make her feel welcome. I said make her feel welcome. I didn’t say chase her away with you kolomentality.

Nice One Vera…You can say "Pardon Me again and again". And your Nwoke Ocha, that was exactly what i thought it was. I also call my laptop my girl friend. Maybe i will have to find a name for it. Hmmm. I have a thought. I will call it JENIFA. Don't mind me o, i am watching JENIFER while reading your post.
It's a nice name though. I guess you are a web freak like me..lol.
Take good care of you and always teach us how to live verastically!
