(no subject)

Yesterday was my birthday, and I had a pretty nice time. I took off work (ruthlessly leaving my coworkers to the mercy of the new timecard system) and had a successful bowling outing with my mother and stepfather, by which I mean I beat them (in the first game, but we don't have to discuss the second). I also got a couple of calls and some nice presents, including an Arthurian murder mystery I've been wanting to read for a while now.

Plus, quite unexpectedly, I found myself a pirate sword. For being plastic and (very) cheap, it's surprisingly pretty (engravings all down the blade! real fabric strips on the hilt!) and I've been hugely enjoying brandishing it at imaginary enemies. I'd only vaguely started to think about Halloween costumes, but this may be a sign that I should go find myself a three-corner hat and a gold earring. I can always work out the details of being Jay Garrick next year...

Happy Birthday!

The pirate sword sounds AWESOME. (Though not as awesome as Jay. Nothing is as awesome as Jay Garrick.)

I was away the week of your birhday, and failed to catch up afterward. Many happy belated! I am desperately hoping to see you at con_txt next year...? (Or if not at the con, I can take a day or two extra to visit BECAUSE.)

I will absolutely be at con.txt (I'm not going to any fan-cons at all this year, which is sad), but all the more I will not miss it if you're going to be there! I haven't seen you in ages.

Bwee! I am signed up already. :D
