Feb. 19th, 2013 03:07 pmThank you to everyone who wished me happy birthday yesterday. Between the tweets, emails, posts, notfic, way bros graphic by Turlough, pic spam by Sperrywink at mwd and sent gifts I was blown away. You are all amazing and I'm very lucky to have you all in my life ♥
It was a good birthday overall. Corey got me stuff from Lush, while everyone else gave money. So I headed off to the shops and spent it all on new clothes. Which was great but also a gulp moment as I'm really not used to spending that much on myself. After that we went to the in-laws, and then my sisters and hung out there until about seven when I came home and ate before my brother came to visit, and ended up staying until after 10. He's a kitchen maker/fitter by trade, one of those expensive independent kitchen traders, and was eyeing up our kitchen saying how it could be easily freshened up with new fronts and counters for not that much money. So I guess that's next on the list at some point.
One thing that did make me laugh a lot was when Chris was leaving.
pensnest gave me The Back Passage for Christmas and I've been reading it, so it was sitting on the chest in the living room. Chris saw the book, with its perfect combo of name and cover, and turned to James asking if he was reading it. Until that moment I never knew James was capable of blushing that much as he spluttered that no, it was me reading it *g*
