I love birthdays. I love them so much I spend about a month celebrating mine. We started back on the 12th with a birthday picnic and things really kicked into high gear today. Yes, today is my actual birthday. Yippee!
I spent the day doing fun things like going to Klondike Days (now called the Capital Ex) with my sister and wandering the midway, zoning out with a good book and a slurpee, and doing Taste of Edmonton with the family and stuffing my face (4 different ice creams!).
One of the reasons I love my birthday so much is that this is the time of year I fly out to Edmonton and visit the old stomping grounds and touch base with all my friends back home. I got here yesterday and I'm spending the next week hanging out, eating my face off, shopping, and generally having a great time.
Life is good.

New comic obsession
I was at ALA this past weekend in sunny Anaheim. Aside from getting my grubby little hands on the new Terry Pratchett book (and 70 more pounds of books), I stumbled across a web comic called Sheldon. The guy was right next to my standby Unshelved booth, and I picked up a page with sample comics on it and thought they were adorable. I don't think it's really a library cartoon per se, but it is in the middle of an adorable summer reading storyline. Go to the site, the strips start on June 25, 2008. Here's some of my favourites so far:
