I lied. Not deliberately. But Tuesday I promised a review of a July 30 release for four consecutive days. I had every intention of completing a review on Wednesday to post today, but yesterday was my birthday. My sister took me to lunch at one of our favorite restaurants where I overindulged in chicken and dressing, sweet potatoes, and fried green tomatoes. I really needed a nap after that, and then I had birthday Kindle cards that were crying to be used and birthday phone calls to answer and Facebook wishes to read. Then I got an ARC of a book I've been really longing to read. The next thing I knew the day was gone, and I had no review. :(
So, I'll write the review later today and post it tomorrow and post the fourth review Saturday. My apologies for the delay. A lazy, low-key celebratory birthday is a legitimate excuse for delay, isn't it?
Do you ever just steal a day for laziness and self-indulgence?

Yes, I do! The older I get the more often I do it, too. LOL
Sounds like you had a great day. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY and may your year be even better!
Yes, I take days off to indulge myself, mostly when there's a book I can't stop reading. Happy birthday, Janga.
Thanks, Irish. I'm glad to know I'm not alone in my self-indulgence. :)
Oh, yes, a good book is reason enough to take a day. I've been known to take a full weekend for a reading marathon. Thanks for the birthday wishes, Joan.
I'm so, so glad you treated yourself to a marvelous birthday! If anyone deserves to be indulged in all the great things she love, it's you!!
Aww, thanks, Hellie. I don't know about deserving, but I surely did enjoy my lazy day.
