Ahem, anyway, I need to go see Prisoner of Azkaban again to wash the taste of TCoR out of my mind, perhaps I'll be able to squeeze it in next weekend.
I now know of 4 other people with the same birthday as myself, oh wait, according to my calendar it's also the Queen's birthday. Rock on! I'll start telling people that instead of Flag Day from now on :)
Mucho packing completed this weekend. I'd say I'm about 75% done at this point and have yanked a good deal of stuff for charity/yard sale/Book Buyers, go me! Although if I get one more gift from someone and the card contains the phrase, "I know you asked me not to get you anything you'd have to pack, but..." I'm going to scream. My youngest sis sent a box that I received on Saturday. Aelf and I tore into it that night and there were gorgeous goodies for both of us. She now has her sparkly disco Pip, and squealed with delight over it. I got a hand decorated Hobbity journal and the coolest pens, decorator paper and odd little bits and bobs as well as a couple of new mixes, hooray! We spent much time showing each other what we'd received and making crafty plans for what to do with it. Though reading the notes my sis had written in the journals she made up for us was probably our favorite bit. We were laughing so hard we could barely breathe.
Sunday consisted of more packing, a little crafting, and a birthday dinner for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
silkblade which was very nice indeed. I was very naughty and had ravioli and then a chocolatey/espresso-y drink from Double Rainbow (mmm). The scale was so not my friend this morning. Still, I've got class tomorrow night and if I can get some time in on the rowing machine tonight, perhaps Wednesday and Thursday plus some this weekend, I'll feel better I'm sure.
