Happy Birthday to me!

May 07, 2012 00:02

Starbucks armchair and mocha, here I come. Then a special lunch. So far I have nothing planned for the late afternoon/evening except perhaps resting, since Tuesday and Wednesday are going to be challenging days at work.

I got my hair streaked on Saturday and man, does it ever look awesome. I have gone from a medium dark brown to a dark honey blonde ( Read more... )

Yay! Not As Dumb is back on! And a chunk of it is MY birthday present! I'm honored, thrilled and still laughing at the antics of the gang.

I would sing for you, but I really can't carry a tune... :P I shall make a chocolate orange cake in your honor!

Ooooh! As you know, I love chocolate orange anything. Can you please slather it in whipped cream?

You just reminded me that I have two special edition chocolate orange Aero bars. I should go eat one while I;m waiting for your cake.

Hey Brit, happy birthday to you! I hope I'm not too late to give you your birthday present, just as promised:

KYAAAAAHHH!!! I shrieked and jumped around in my computer room when I saw this! My dad was worried and called anxiously up the stairs.

Honestly, when you said you had a surprise that wasn't a fic, I couldn't think what you meant except possibly that you were going to draw me a picture.

I love your birthday present to bits. I laughed like a madwoman when I saw it. (I think it was the laughing that made my dad stand down and understand that I wasn't being murdered or anything.)

Thank you so much, you clever girl!

Yay! I'm sooo happy that you like it that much! I hope you didn't destroy anything while jumping around in your room. :D
Maybe someday I'll also draw you a picture, although I'm not really good at drawing... So I guess I'll stick to videos, at least for the time being.
However, let's hope for another great year full of love, peace and FAKE!

Hey Brit, I just saw that my last comment was marked as spam ._. I hope you can still see it, because it contains a link to your birthday present! :)

Yeah, that often happens with your comments, and I don't understand why. LJ flags them as 'suspicious' but at least I get the option to click on them without them going straight into another folder. I have never not clicked on one of your comments, so I don't understand why LJ keeps doing this. I would have clicked on it sooner, except that I just got back from a very extended birthday lunch on a lovely leafy patio.

Now the rest of my readers can enjoy your creativity! Thanks again!

Oh I'm glad that you always click on my comments, even if LJ warns you so often of me! But seriously, I'm definitely not dangerous, and LJ should know that by now. Maybe it just doesn't like me, for whatever reason. Or it may happen every time I post a link, so LJ wants to make sure that I won't send anyone to a porn site or worse...
When you say you were on a leafy patio, I assume summer is already there in Canada? It's nice to hear that, it sounds like the perfect birthday weather! We also had some nice sunny days here in Germany last week, but now it's cooler again. (Fortunately, my birthday is on the 29th of July, so by then, the temperatures should be high again.)

Yes, LJ seems to be discriminating against you for some strange reason. And I'll vouch for the fact that you're definitely not dangerous. If you were dangerous, Steffi would not dare to sleep on your bed and shed her fur there, not to mention being all grumpy with you when you try to move her. Steffi knows you're not a dangerous person!

No, I wouldn't call it summer here, at least certainly not on the West Coast. It's more like spring. People are starting to wear shorts and sandals, but you never know what the weather is going to do nowadays. it can go from being warm-ish and sunny to cold and rainy in an hour or less.

The patio I sat on had heaters, but we didn't need them because the sun shone warmly for my birthday! Thank you, Sun.

Happy birthday, Brit! Hope you get the comfiest armchair and the yummiest mocha in the place.

I have a flat iron at home, but it's not a very good one, so I can't get the same effect myself.
Ugh, I hear ya. Back when I had long hair, I had the same problem: I would go in to get my hair done, it would look great, but then I try to flat-iron it myself, and my hair got fried. I bet your blonde streaks look great, though! Blonde hair in summer is the best.

Sorry, I'm buried in finals, so I couldn't manage a fic that was even vaugely in-character. So, here, have some imaginary birthday cake instead, delivered by the fictional character of your choice! ;)

Well, I think I would like Ryo to deliver it because I think the cake would arrive in good shape if he was the guy in charge of it. Dee would put the cake box on the back seat and then drive like a madman so the cake box would get banged around. Drake would probably forget which way was up and carry the box upside down. Bikky would open the box and eat all the chocolate curls off the top when Ryo's attention was elsewhere. JJ would refuse to be involved ever since that three day suspension he got for crushing a staff member's birthday cake in the break room of the 27th precinct. Ted would probably sling the cake box in the trunk and then forget about it until the next day.

Yes, all things considered, I think Ryo is the best man for the job. And I would like the cake to be chocolate raspberry mousse, heavy on the chocolate, light on the raspberry.

Oh, and I forgot to say, I got the best armchair, the one I never manage to get! There was a guy in it when I arrived, but when I turned around after paying for my drink, he was gone and the chair was waiting for me! I call that the power of positive thinking.
