Song of the Day: What Are You Doing New Year’s Eve?
What Are You Doing New Year’s Eve? by Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

Did you think I’d leave you hanging for gift ideas? Never.
December is host to two of my favorite things: Christmas and my birthday (on the 17th!). I’m just not one of those people who pay no heed to their birthdays. I love ‘em. It’s my excuse to splurge on myself and be queen for a day. Hey, I’m an only child – I like attention.
