Second: I had an impromptu day out today. I got woken up from my nice big sleep in by a phone call from my mother telling me that they were on their way to see Enchanted at the movies and did I want to come. So I got to see a really adorable movie, went for a little shop where my mother and I both bought cup cake tins because our old ones have mysteriously disappeared. *sends a suspicious look in sister's direction* Cup cakes are a big thing in my family. My mother was three hours late meeting me yesterday because she randomly decided to make me cup cakes. They are our one and only secret family recipe.
Then we (Me, Mum, StepDad & 8yr old StepBrother) went back to their place to play card games. I didn't get home until 6.30pm and then mum and I sat in the car and had a big chat. I was really lovely.
Third: I just checked my emails and sorted out the latest seven of them. I wrote a story at FF.net that has been getting enough of a response that I made a folder for it in my emails. I am ending 2007 with 87 emails in that folder.
Fourth: It was my birthday yesterday and it wasn't at all disappointing. I went to quill chat early, had a good chat, then left to do the birthday thing with my dad. Then my mum was supposed to show up around lunch. After half an hour of waiting for her I jumped back on quill chat with the odd thought of maybe someone will be there. Lots of people were there so I had another big chat. (Happy birthday to Alkari for tomorrow)
Once my mum actually arrived we had a very pleasant afternoon with just me and my divorced parents. It was weird but so nice to have them both there with me and all to myself (my sister has moved back in to the place she had just moved out of). It may sound mean but I love that all of my friends are out of the country at the moment. I hate being obliged to do stuff that other people want to do on my birthday.
Fifth: I got a present from a new friend. Thank you for the balloons
busterde that was really nice of you. :)
Sixth: QUIET NEW YEARS!! I don't drink so New Years has never been a fun thing for me but this year everyone's going for a quiet night. The cyclone off the coast is bringing in winds big enough to cancel most of the fireworks shows and the ones that are still going ahead have been downgraded to smaller displays. So most people seem to be staying home or having drinks with friends instead of all partying out at South Bank and so forth. I might actually get to sleep tonight (which is a requirement because I'm going out tomorrow).
I hope everyone has a safe and happy new year. I'll talk to y'all in 2008 m'dears.
