kangeikoThank you for all the birthday wishes, I had a lovely day yesterday, although I do not feel twenty-seven. I'm told that this awareness will come in time, usually at about the 33rd birthday point. Ho hum.
Had a truly excellent day, actually - took the day off from work and had a massage, was taken out for a delicious lunch by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
selenak, here on a splendiferous book tour, and got signed up for a not-for-profit agency that has promised to find me a job in development that pays actual cash-money. Like a real job and everything!
Also had a lovely dinner withathena25, queenspanky, rifle, flatmate Z and wingsmith, who crossed a country to come share mussels with me. I love my friends. *gathers them to my bosom*
Today, I am having my hair coloured. This will take 3 hours and cost a fortune, as I am attempting to go back to my original hair colour, which is more or less that of Evangeline Lilly in last month's In Style (go, look, admire). No prizes for guessing that this will be difficult to achieve after having dyed my hair black for the winter. BUT. I have faith in my hairstylist, Yu, who I have to book in person as every attempt to book him over the phone turns into an Abbott & Costello sketch.
Seeing my parents tomorrow - shopping glee and also Mamma Mia with my mum in the evening, as it is her birthday on Monday and we'll go see ABBA-themed movies and/or stage shows if we want to, the agonised pleading of the boys notwithstanding - and a four-day week next week, due to a training day on the Friday that will hopefully be spent at the pub. W00t!
