Today is – if I wrote it down correctly – the birthday of Softdrink of the awesome Fizzy Thoughts blog. Click here to go to her blog and wish her a Happy-Happy!
I wrote a cheer in her honor and to celebrate Poetry Month.
Here’s to Jill and many a Fizzy Thought
Here’s to another book she read and bought
Here’s to the parody of many a song
Here’s to authors at whom she may have thrown a thong* (hey – it rhymes, deal)
She’s the first blogger who sent me a book
Just because! and so I was hooked
I appreciate all that she does and shares
She’s so darn funny and I believe she truly cares.
Here’s to unflagging enthusiasm and cheer
In NYC next month, I will buy her a beer! (pie didn’t rhyme, Jill, but if you prefer pie, we can arrange that, too…)
* it’s a Twitter thing about authors who are panty-worthy… I am not sure who to give credit to – perhaps Rebecca the Book Lady?

That’s a sweet post, Care! I have just left a comment on Jill’s blog.
This post reminds me of why I blog
I love the poem! And yep, I sure do love the blogging community.
What a cute little birthday poem!
I love that you wrote a cheer for the best cheerleader out there!
What a perfectly fitting birthday message for Jill! As Nymeth said, this is a great reminder of why the book blogosphere is so great.
(and yes, the pantyworthy thing was me
)
Dude, this is flippin’ AWESOME! My very own birthday cheer…what a fantastic way to start the day! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Your dog is absolutely, positively adorable.
Aww, this was so funny and thoughtful! It is a good ode to someone who works hard at coming up with cheers for readathons!
