26 Today!

It's that time of year again, the day after halloween when I suddenly become a year older.  My age is starting to seem rather alien to me... I really don't fell like I'm 26... I mean I'm supposed to be feeling more grown up by now aren't I? :P

Anyway, went to a nice Indian restaurant with the family last night and ate far too much curry (my poor belly!).  I got myself a present yesterday too, a NAS enclosure (a hard drive you can put independantly on the network) which also has a bit-torrent client and other nifty features.  I've needed a backup device as one of my hard drives is becoming unreliable, and it's also a good place to shift my movies and TV shows so I can watch them from my Xbox without my computer being on.

Not too sure how I'll be celebrating my birthday.  I'll be working today so I expect there'll be a cake or something.  The guys at work have invited me out for drinks after work too.  Not really doing anything at the weekend to celebrate the birthday, although I will be attending a friends fireworks display :).

Birthday stuffs

Firstly, thanks to everyone who's wished me a happy birthday :).  Secondly, I'm a little drunk from going out with the guys at work and drinking much alcohol (even though I said I'd only have a few). Thirdly, sometimes it's great to have a brother who's also a fur as he got me a fantastic present.  Not only did he get me a mug with the pic keihound drew for me, but he also had a comission drawn for me by wtfmuzz!  I'm really pleased with the pic, even if it is showing me in what I'd look like if I layed off the confectionary, imported drinks and other fatty foods :P

Anyway, if you want to see the pic (as illustrated in my new LJ icon) take a look at the pic here :).
