Thank you all! Yeah, these days it always ends up being more of a birthday week than a birthday.

I've been out to dinner with friends and family all week (and there's more gatherings to come over the weekend - everybody's trying to feed me apparently), been to a book signing by a favorite author, gotten lots of birthday wishes and, best of all, started a new job that I FREAKIN' LOVE. Everyday I'm struck by how different this is from the one I left, and I'm so grateful to have been hired.
Also, the Blu-Rays for
Sherlock, and the boxed set game,
Cards Against Humanity, arrived on my birthday. (I am a bad, bad person for loving that game. Also, I wish there was a way to play it with the denizens of the DE.

) I iz happy.
