That's A Very Long Time

If you take 100 years and divide it by 4 you get 25 years; ¼ of a century.

You also get the age that I am turning today. I'd love to say that I feel old (though I don't know why), but the paradoxial nature of hanging out with youth means that I simultaneously feel both old (because I haven't a clue what they're on about sometimes and they don't remember things that I remember 'back in the day') and young (because I get to chat about school and teachers and exams and coursework and breaktimes and general school stuff).

When I got back from the concert last night, Lis needed some bonjella for her toothache, so I went out and got some. When I delievered it to her house, she surprised me with a (10-minute) early birthday present.

If I never get another birthday present this year, this will be enough for me. I love it :-D

Thank you baby!!

The world according to 'the legend' Tim

Last night we went to see a band. On the way back, we were light-heartedly making fun of Tim for his 'pop-rock' comments. The conversation was getting a little out of hand, so I decided to change the subject.

Tris: Tim, did you notice that the drummer was left-handed!?

Tim: Yeah I did.

*pause*

Tim: I think he was left-handed the last time I saw them too.

Good News Everyone...

..as you may or may not know - Lis and I got engaged!! We're planning on getting married in July :-D

Also, I saw this quote today which I thought was quite cool...

"The quickest way to a man's heart really is through his stomach, because then you don't have to chop through that pesky rib cage. "
