[263] the two hundred and sixty-third post of the year two thousand and ten
my dearest comrades, this is the last day of 2010! the last week of the year has been very kind to me indeed :)
1. my birthday was most excellent. i went out for dessert and tron: legacy with the dudes on the 27th, and had dinner with some of my closest pals on the 29th. much fun was had on both occasions, and as usual, i shall share pics shortly :D thank you to EVERYONE who took the time and effort to wish me a happy birthday on lj, twitter and facebook. it means so very much ♥
special thanks to cacklesthewitch, sexysimone_s, teganscrush and weirdwednesday for the v-gifts; autumn_lilacs, chez_amanda, ckll, lassiterfics, lijahlover and nachekana for the b'day posts; akintay, lady_bee_i and mistyzeo for the PMs; and jaimeykay for the brainmeltingly gorgeous picspam of spn art and photos.
last but not least, thank you to my bb spacefragments for this incredibly beautiful wincest art. yes, she drew sam/dean! and best of all, she drew it for me! \0/
2. christmas was a quiet affair this year. stayed at home and watched movies, and then had a few buddies come over late at night for tea and games :D had my annual gift exchange with
ava and spacecowboy310 last night, during which i received some fantastic presents, many of which were, unsurprisingly, owl-themed :P
thanks to annundriel, bryoneybrynn, cacklesthewitch, elanorelle, maja_li and teganscrush for the meaningful christmas cards, heartfelt wishes and fic/artwork. it made me so very happy to see your words and creations, especially since i wasn't able to send out holiday cards or packages myself this year ♥
3. what are your nye plans? what resolutions did you make?
i'll be keeping things low-key tonight. the plan is to cook a meal with
the bf, watch piranha 3d for the lulz, and possibly meet up with our mutual friends for the countdown. i'm used to ushering in the new year with a lot of glitz and glamour, but i'm looking forward to a more muted transition this time around.
as for resolutions, i usually don't make any, but i'm going to try and fix my sleep schedule in the coming year and lead a more active lifestyle *crosses fingers* i reckon it's time to stop being so nocturnal and start boosting my non-existant immune system :D
4. in keeping with new beginnings, i've switched to a new layout!
