tbh I love that I started off my bday in the wee hours of the morning (literally it was just past midnight lol) watching the haunting of bly manor with my dear @therewas-a-girl and we collectively squeed over the gay™ as well as how this show did not have to go this hard and YET I feel like this show is personally attacking me and all my vulnerabilities but in the best way possible!!! and then when I woke up my mother made me french toast and then I went to open the box the lovely @deadtedkord sent me and I found SO MANY BOOKS including a black canary comic I didn't even know existed! as well as movies for speedy which is just. so sweet. I actually really miss having physical books so I'm so glad I can add to my collection for once! and there was this pretty inspo journal thing with colouring pages that I'm looking forward to filling in! will see if I can put some of my jottings there.
and THEN speedy brought me some super cute dresses that my mum and other sister bought and they are dotty with pockets!! can you believe? and I tried them on and they look good on me which I know is hard to believe lmao.
and this evening we're getting takeout from this mediterranean place and I'm super stoked for that. plus cake 🎂!!!
I know no one asked to hear about this but I am just glad my bday has been acknowledged this year bc usually we don't do much - but this time round it's been nice so far irl. fingers crossed it stays that way ✨
wanted to add - @joharvell is the BEST bc she knows I am currently obsessed with the old guard and I knew she’s probably seen it too much on her dash lately and yet!!!!! she made me pretty headers and a yusuf icon which I am now wearing!!!!!!!! so thank you for those :)
and also. my bro got me something - I got so!!!! many!!!! books!!!! in total! and that makes me happy bc there is NOTHING i love more than books and journals and fun stationery and pretty jewellery - and yes somehow I got all of that lol.
and, bc I don’t like this new system of replies and am not sure people will actually see them -
@benhargrieves: That all sounds so lovely; I’m glad!!! And happy birthday! <3
THANK YOU JANIE! am genuinely v taken aback at how much I enjoyed my bday lol. so suffice it to say it was great :D also gurl we gotta catch up sometime - I miss salting w you!
@therewas-a-girl: Its your BIRTHDAY?!?!?!?!??! HOW DARE YOU NOT MENTION THIS TO ME ONCE WE PRACTICALLY DID THE EQUIVALENT OF CALLI G ASLEEP TALKING TO EACH OTHER ON THE PHONE…… well i fell asleep, and we werent on the phone BUT NO MATTER
Oh mlna happy birthday - i think u did mention it, i just forgot like i always do. May you encounter gentleness and tenderness, may you find all the battles that need you and fight them cause i know that makes you happy.
May you have roses and sunflowers in your life and someone who loves you like you deserve , someone who comes in the room just to hug you eve tho you were together not even 10 minutes ago. May you live ur best life. And also, on this cursed 2020, you are a ray of sunlight Happy birthday
If ypu ever feel down i want you to remember that you are, to me and many otuers, one of those people who vindicate the world
ANNIE!!!! ur gonna make me cry lol. thank youuuuuuuu. tis been super fun with movie nights and watching bly manor (lmk when you wanna pick up! I have a family thing I’m avoiding lol) and like I said I am kinda gobsmacked that my bday was actually that good. I don’t think I’ve had this enjoyable a birthday since I was like. five. lol. which was twenty years ago and that feels weird lmao.
(also speedy often comes into my room just to hug me!!!!!! D)
