We Laugh Indoors

My birthday party was last night. No pictures, but it was a cool night watching 40 Year Old Virgin, we didn't go Rileys in the end.

Thanks for the company. With any luck, I'll get my post in the mail. There seems to be a big backlog with it being Christmas.

At least though I got a card from Mark Fisher MP, which was a delight.

Twenteen

So today, I turned Twenty. Or Twenteen, as my brother so nicely put it.
It's been a good day, and I've treated myself to West Wing on DVD and Friends on DVD to give me hours of entertainment.
But for a lot of reasons I've been getting nostalgic about my teen years, as you do when you finally do when you're not a teenager anymore.
I would like to thank everyone who got me cards, sent me text messages, for the presents and messages on Facebook and MySpace. And its not all over as I have a little gathering with a couple of friends this Friday that I'm looking forward to.
It was a strange day for me in terms of who gave me messages of 'Happy Birthday', and who didn't.
Sometimes that leaves me a little confused, but when I think of my teen years, it brings me to recall probably my favourite day of recent times - the band and its music has always been an inspiration to me. And being there with a certain someone made it even more special.
