It's my birthday...
So, now I'm 31. Doesn't feel different from 30. But I suspect there's maybe a gray hair in that big mop I carry around. Possibly a wrinkle extra. :-)
EDIT:
It's bragging time. My fiancée, the lovely
brightlyiburn and her family sent me some presents, which are pretty damn awesome.
From B's sister, I got Loot, a fun-looking card game about pirates (although not the Somali kind). It looks like a game that will improve from fun to hilarious if rum and pirate accents are added.
From her mother, I got two books, Academ's Fury by Jim Butcher (Codex Alera book 2) and To Catch the Lightning by Catherine Asaro (Skolian Empire book 2). In both cases I read and much loved the firsts.
But the main event was what B herself gave me: The Slipstream Edition complete boxed set of Andromeda. The TV series with Kevin Sorbo as a starship captain. Which I love to pieces. All five seasons of it, in neat little slimline cases, the backs of which form a picture of the titular ship, the Andromeda Ascendant. This is basically a box of utter awesome and badass.
I totally win.
