First thing's first:



And ... I guess Pavano can have a happy birthday as well. *grumblegrumble* But more importantly: Happy birthday to me! Not that anyone in Britain gives a wank, but I have reached full legality in America, so that when I return I shall be able to drink you all under the table. (Or not, because honestly, it's far too expensive for me to want to.) I can also finally open the present from my parents that has been sitting on my table since Friday, daring me to open it before my birthday day.

I appear to have developed a bit of an obsession with a program called Torchwood - a spin off of Dr. Who. The sad part? I've only seen the season finale. Yes, finale. And as far as I can see they're not playing reruns yet. *Sighe*

Off to do some actual shopping so I don't live on spaghetti and garlic salt all term. Also to do my laundry - I finally found the laundrette, and it's stupidly far away. So is the grocery, for that matter, but oh well.

My suggestion is to go to Ireland and try Bulmers. it's like apple cider, but spiked!

I hope you have a VERY Happy Birthday! XD

your comment on Pavano made me laugh really, really hard!

It was an excellent birthday, thank you! My friend came to see me and took me to dinner. Terrible restaurant service aside, it was awesome to see her before she goes back to the states. My parents gave me a Rat Pack DVD set - with the original Ocean's 11!

I'm still annoyed that I share a birthday with that guy ;P

Bah, he deserves worse than what I gave him ;P I figured I'd be nice on his birthday at least.

Thank you :D ♥

Legal drinking, woot! :D

Happy birthday Sly Omi! You know, I've been living on spaghetti and garlic salt. It's good, but you always vary it with other spices or by adding chicken. If I were less lazy, that's what I would do.

Thank you, Slippery Liz! Oh: My mom forwarded your letter to me and I got it today, so the moonstone was like a birthday present. It's quite lovely! As to the pasta - I'm supplimenting it with peanut butter and instant soups. I'm far too lazy to cook chicken ;)

I'm glad you got my letter. I'd hoped it would get to you before you left, but oh well. You could always just microwave the chicken, which would be easyish, but peanut butter is delicious and good for you. Just don't starve. Or get scurvy.

Oh! I meant to post an entry specifically wishing you a happy birthday at 3am this morning, but I forgot five minutes before I made the entry. >.<

Anyway, very happy birthday! Expect a present in the mail (email me your address!) when I get my act together.

Haha, well, it's fine that you didn't ;)

Thank you, dear. Ooooh, a present! :D I'll wait for it all term if I have to. I'm sure Theo has my address, but I'll e-mail it to you anyway.
