Happy Friday all!!
Thank you all sooo much for my BirthdayRobCrack - they are all gorgeous!! I had a really good birthday!! On Wednesday night we went for dinner and quiz with a couple of our friends, which was a lot of fun. We didn't win (we rarely do LOL) but had lots of laugh, and quite a few adult beverages
And then yesterday on my actual birthday was a lot of fun too! I started work later (as I was owed time back) which was pretty cool. My work mates know I don't like cake, so instead of getting me a birthday cake they got my a big pack of my favourite biscuits (which I eat everyday at work, in the morning and then again in the afternoon LOL) which I thought was soooo sweet of them!! When I got home, my bf had put birthday candles on an apple pie for me - again so very sweet!! And then my parents came over and took us out for dinner. It was really nice! So a very good birthday, and I got lots of pretty cards and gifts.
I'm not sure if you all remember that we had a big problem with spiders when we first moved into our house? Well we got this thing months ago that is supposed to deter them (it plugs into the wall, and has some kind of electromagnetic wave that affects spiders). We still get some, but I think it is less than before, so hopefully it was doing something. Anyway, my bf was going to get me a pet for my birthday...he was going to buy it and get a cage and everything for me coming in from work tomorrow, but then he thought I might want to get it myself. The pet is a rat
I'm not sure how many of you here like rodents?? LOL. But anyway, we are thinking about getting 2 (as they like company) but the only thing is, the spider repeller can't be used if you have any rodents!! So we would have to take that out...and I'm really scared that spiders will come back. Don't know what to do now!! LOL.
ActionRob - ActionRob joined us both
at the pub on Wednesday and
out at dinner last night. At the pub he
posed with one of my gifts,
offered to buy us a cocktail, and
helped us with the quiz. At dinner last night, he posed with some
Japanese beer (and cola LOL) and with
my food. I only have a couple of others things planned with him, and then he will be making his way back to the US to visit
Tracy!
Christina - Sorry that some kids messed around with your AC. Were your cats ok? Hopefully they won't do it again!!
Yep I am documenting all of ActionRob's adventures in his diary. It will soon be time to send him on to his next destination..it went really fast!
Tracy - Wow, that EW cover does indeed look lovely! Would you really send me a copy of the new Rob issue?? Aww thank you sooo much!! We don't get EW here at all
Yep I think my bf will come to see WfE with me, and probably one of my friends who like's Twilight too.
Marielle - WOW! I love love love my birthday gifts!! Soooo much FingerPorn *explodes*
Thanks for posting the pic of you and
Susie! I'm glad you had a nice dinner, and got to catch up "in the flesh". That's really exciting!! Also, pretty cool that you got to meet SonnyBoy.
I hope you have fun visiting your friend who has just had the baby!
Raine - Wow, that's pretty scary about your earthquake drill, espeically if you didn't know it was going to happen. But it's also quite good that you didn't get told first, cos if it were to happen, then I guess you wouldn't get any notice! I'm glad no one got hurt though!!
Wow!! You get to go to that beach with your work, all paid?? I want to work for your company!! LOL. That looks awesome!
I think I love Walter & Queenie the most too, apart from Jacob. Does anyone know who is playing Walter in the movie?
I hope your brother & SIL made up after their disagreement!
Caryn - I hope the Butler game went well? Or is the next one not happened yet? LOL. I am a wee bit confused
Thank you for posting that Rob article; I really enjoyed reading it.
StellaBlueBella - Hey there!! I have seen you about the fanfic thread too! Welcome to Rob's Halfway House! The ladies here are awesome, and you will really enjoy your stay
missp - I hope you enjoyed dinner with your friends last night!
JennJenn - Sorry you lost your post!
Susie - I'm glad you and SonnyBoy got home safe. That's mental that it snowed 8 inches while you were away! When should it stop snowing for you?
I can't wait to see your pic from meeting up with
Marielle. Ah I see you just posted LOL. What did SonnyBoy think of Amsterdam? I hope he is feeling a bit better now!
Yep I think we were in the smallest screen when we went to see Eclipse in London last year LOL. Hopefully there will be pics in the paper here, and I can show you the red carpet!
Yep I am 25 now... I feel so
old! I am now in my
late twenties...that's super scary!!!
I was on a half day from work today, as they let everyone go home (unless we had something critical to do this afternoon) as they confirmed yesterday that the site will be closing. 45 people will be leaving next week!! Pretty scary..I should find out when I have to go in the next 2 weeks. So everyone is really sad now...
Anyways, I'm off.
Bye!
EDIT: Wow, lots of posts while I was posting! LOL.
Caryn - Those new photos are beautiful!! Wowza indeed!!
Marielle - Aw sorry the VF interview left you feeling a bit sad. I want to wrap him up too and hide him away from everything.
Mel - Hey there! Sorry that Buddy is still ill..do you know what's wrong with him? Also that sucks about your work!!
Raine - I'm still here LOL. I must just be a slow typer today LOL! I'm glad your work is less hectic so you can post more often now too!
Ok now I really am going - catch you later!
