wiseheartMy dear friends,
Despite LJ's attempt to destroy our fun, the reconstructed birthday party was a great success. In two entries, we had a total of 1365 comments on 10 pages, and I still have some lost threads to repost. My heartfelt thanks to all who came and participated in the discussions; I think I can speak for us all when I say that it was a wonderful experience.
In general, I had a great birthday. Aside from the Party - the best of my life so far - I also got various shinies: the New Bed (TM), which I gifted upon myself (although Mum paid the delivery), some nice long-sleeved T-shirts from Mum, an imprompty birthday party with home-made muffins from my 7th-grade-students, the wonderful book "The Art of The Hobbit" from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Work on my actual birthday was low-scale (only 2 lessons), so Mum and I could visit the grandparents who now rest in a nearby churchyard (the grand achievement of the summer) and then eat out in a nice restaurant.
If more birthdays turn out like this one, I won't mind getting older. ;))
