Birthday Post

So, my birthday was a lot more low-key this year. For one thing, I had to work 8:45-5 PM. This is when I started wearing my reindeer antlers to work. I ate grilled cheese and Code Red at KMart for lunch.

Then, I got home, napped and read all the wonderful posts and comments and Tweets from everyone before going to see Sherlock Holmes and the Game of Shadows.

When we got home, I happened to look over and see a shooting star!
Then, we did crackers which we'd never done before. I didn't even know you could buy them in America. They were fun but the pops didn't always work. We split them up into two for my birthday, two for Christmas and two for New Year's.

Oh, speaking of Sherlock Holmes, I saw that OTHER Sherlock Holmes movie today. You know, the one with Gareth David-Lloyd?

It actually wasn't as bad I was expecting. I think the main problem was that the Sherlock actor was completely wrong for the part. Otherwise, I want the Warehouse 13 spin-off in Victorian times so HARD!

Also, here's the outfit I got for my birthday although I also got a skeleton Hello Kitty purse and a Lucky bracelet:

Am happy you had a good birthday :) Love, love, love your t-shirt.

I have the Sherlock film with GDL but it's from the UK and I don't have a region free dvd player at the moment so I can't watch it *sulks*

And no one has a computer with a dvd drive?

The Macs are tricky but it's really easy to change the region settings for PCs.

Thank you, I got the shirt at Hot Topic and then I bought a TeeFury one so now I actually have TWO Doctor Who shirts. I never thought I'd see the day.

The laptops do but mine is locked to region 4 and can't be changed cos it can already been changed 4 times before and now it's locked apparently. Even if you remove it from my laptop.

My parent dvd player might be region free but I'm not game enough to play with it, nor my parents computer. It's not worth the crap that will follow if thy're screwed up.

I watch DVDs on my XBOX 360 and it has to be hacked to make it region free and I'm more than a little hesitant to have someone hack my beloved 360, source of all my Halo games.

LOL two Doctor Who t-shirts are very good to have :)
