Britain: We've had running water for ten years.

[maypirate]

Yesterday marked one year since nymeria arrived in my country and home.

Sadly, she did not return this year, but we did spend an evening with my dad's British people and their daughters and then Megan insisted I watch "Little Britain" and we did, so I have declared Dec. 28 to be "Official 'I can has a British person' Day."

I guess you celebrate by like...having a British person or something? Not sure on the specifics yet. I wish my livewife had reappeared, though, since this year we have all the snow we were missing last year and could have gone hunting for the eight-armed snow gorillas. Possibly with an additional snow python.

In other news, Portal is truly everything everyone said it would be, and is my new favorite "game-that-I-suck-at-but-I-watched-Don-beat-it-so" game. It is true brilliance and I long terribly for a companion cube of my own. And I got a button maker for Christmas (docthestampede, if you're interested, it's 1.25") and I'm gonna make so many buttons oh my god, and then I will attempt to sell them when sake_butterfly and I have an art table at OTAKRON next summer. However, since at the moment I have limited materials, I have tried to restrain myself from making buttons out of everything I find in my house. It's been hard.

And now I have to write a book review, but I think I shall do this thing at Borders, and feel all artsy or creative or intelligent or some shit.
