Thank you [Birthday Feature]
Oh my gosh, thank you to everyone! My birthday was on the 23rd, and I'm usually quite flippant regarding it. After so many years, it does become "just another day" since I am not a party-type with many friends where I live. Also being a twin, it's not a special day for only me, so there's two adult people involved which makes planning things tough. Family gets in the mindset where it's both, or nothing, so if one of us is unavailable... well, then, maybe next year?
It no longer bothers me as much as it once did. Actually, October is my favorite month regardless, because the autumn season is in full swing and Halloween is my favorite holiday. Not to mention ever since seeing the psychological thriller movie The Number 23 with Jim Carrey, I'm pretty happy with having a birthday falling under the 23 enigma. XD
However, this birthday was made memorable thanks to all my great friends here online! Like, wow! I was honestly quite surprised by the amount of warm wishes I received, both here from the lovely laurose8, and then everybody on deviantART.
And lookit! I received some epic and gorgeous gift-art which I must, must, must show off! And while the fangirl inside me pretty much exploded, my friends also had the nicest things to say, I can't even:

You'll also notice this adorable lil' blinking couple:
Who are now my default icon here. Yes, that would be a pixel-chibi version of me, holding hands and wrapped up with Eduardo Dorado's scarf. *blushes* The fangirl lives, ya'all! She lives!!
I even received some gift-fics by a few dear friends and fellow writers:
☆ Journal About Heather by Jakers-Reviews
☆ Make a Wish by PrettY-kItty-luvs-u
Aren't they all fabulous beyond words?! Ohmagawd I can not even! *cries happy tears* Please be sure to click each and every thumbnail and link! You'll be taken to my talented friends' pages where you can see these beauties in larger, glorious detail. Go send them some love and comments, too! They deserve them for being awesome!!
And to top it off, my friends MizDawesome and sindah snail-mailed me fun and cool delights! Thank you, ladies!! And somehow MizDawesome managed to make her parcel into a mini-surprise party, mixing my mundane with the virtual love on dA. Whaaaat?! (*_*) Check it out here. Seriously, that was my first-ever surprise party, and it worked-I had no clue she was getting some of my dA buddies involved, and I was floored. Jaw on the floor, body bouncing around, floored! Well, you can probably tell by my comments to her journal. Speechless, yet I can still squeak out: thanks!
♥ Thank you everyone!! ♥
You guys made this birthday one I'll always treasure!
Astoundingly, I was able to swing a late birthday dinner out with my twin sister and the family on the Wednesday before. And we actually had a fun time! My sis gave me the best card, too: Wonder Woman and her fabulous boots! :D
