Apparently a lot of fun…?
WHAT DO YOU USUALLY DO TO CELEBRATE YOUR BIRTHDAY?
I eat an entire cake by myself. Not alone. I just don’t share it.
WERE YOU BORN IN THE MORNING, AFTERNOON, OR THE NIGHT?
I believe I was an evening baby.
IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY PRESENT IN THE WORLD, WHAT PRESENT WOULD IT BE?
Money for books. No one ever gets the right book, you know?
WHAT’S YOUR EARLIEST BIRTHDAY MEMORY?
Ughhhhh….. a few years ago my fiance threw me a surprise party…?
HOW DID YOU GET YOUR NAME?
Well… it’s funny that I’d start this with “Well.” Before I was born there weren’t a lot of Jessica’s on my block. Plenty of Amanda’s and Elizabeth’s and Rachel’s etc, but no Jessica’s. So my mom thought she’d name me something that would be easy to hear on the block. But then Little Jessica fell down a damn well and that’s how I graduated high school with 17 other Jessica’s.
HAVE YOU EVER FORGOTTEN YOUR BIRTHDAY?
Have I ever forgotten my own birthday? No. Not yet. Give it time.
BOOK FLASH: 5 BOOKS YOU’D WANT TO BE GIVEN ON YOUR SPECIAL DAY!
I don’t actually want books on my birthday. No one ever gets me the books I ask for and it’s much easier just to buy my own.
LASTLY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! TREAT YOURSELF TO A GIF!
