So, my birthday was yesterday. I spent it at COVER, actually, painting the undersides of this family's eaves. "This family" lives in a mobile home park, next to a woman who yells at small children and makes loud cell phone calls in rooms with open windows. Rar. Very irritating.
Ginny and I painted upside down all day, with a big long break for lunch. We got home at about 5:30, at which point Mum made dinner, I opened my presents (in order of weight), and we had cake. In a special coincidence just for me, the universe had our Netflix Shrek 2 come, so we watched that after cake. Fabulous movie.
Presents consisted of a pair of extendable erasers (!) and a fancy pen, a rose, the Titans Expansion (!!), a necklace, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat on CD (!!!), and a bag of candy(!!!!). Does my family know me, or what?
And to make up for my birthday being all workity, Mum gave me today off from chores. I finished the Expansion campaign just in time for dinner, and let me tell you, Kastor is an idiot. So. Now is the time for Random Map games. Wheehee! ^^
