HAPPY FEBRUARY 1st!
Did you know that my birthday is coming up? YES! February 22nd. George Washington's birthday! And I am going to be... let's see.... 24*? 25?

A lot of you probably don't know this but as of 2 years ago, February became my most hated month of the year. My mom passed away 10 days before my birthday. Ya, not cool... to say the least. This year, I'm determined to change the fact that I dread February. I NEED to. For my sake and also that of my family. So - I've been thinking about this and decided, what makes somebody happy? What makes me happy? For me, it's getting mail. Getting mail that is a PACKAGE. Getting a package that has FUN STUFF! And before you jump (or have you already jumped?) to the conclusion that I want all of my blog readers to send me happy packages, that is NOT the case. (*whispers* Although I'm not totally adverse to it!*) For the FIRST TIME in La La La Laaaahhhh!!!!-land, as a part of my Birthday Celebration - - - I am going to be giving away a package of "Sariqd's Favorite Things!"

The rules of this giveaway are:

1) Comment on my blog that you want to participate. Deadline is February 14th, MIDNIGHT PST.
2) Post about this giveaway on your blog with a link back to mine. In your post, share some of your favorite Birthday memories. That can be anything from cake to presents to memories to whatever. Just write about happy times.
3) Be willing to send me your postal address.
4) If you're the lucky winner, please fake it if you happen to not care about my favorite things when you receive it.

I will be selecting a winner by random drawing (Hero will be my witness) on Feb. 15th. That is to allow me time to send it off to you so you too, can open a present on my birthday! How exciting will that be?

*Okay - if you're trying to read this tiny print, you deserve the right to at least know my real age. I'm going to be 38! I know!
