Here is how I've spent the morning of my birthday so far:

- Sleeping in!

- [insanejournal.com profile] ratzeo woke me up long enough to tell me that he and his parents agreed that he should not try to travel, and he will be staying here for Christmas. I'm sad that neither of us gets to be with our parents for the holiday, but I'm happy that we'll be together.

- My parents called (waking me up, but I don't care) to wish me a happy birthday.

- A few minutes into the phone call, I heard "Maow maow maow," as Kershach made his calling meow (when he walks around asking 'where are you guys?') and found me in bed. This is unusual, because Kershach typically follows anyone who's awake, so since [insanejournal.com profile] ratzeo was already up, Kershach should have stuck with him and hung out in the living area. But he hopped up onto the bed and indulged in a belated birthday-morning cuddle. So while I was talking to my parents (and eventually [insanejournal.com profile] kyonkun, who also called with birthday wishes), I was curled up with a warm, soft, snuggly, fluffy ball of purr. ♥

- The university suspended operations today (which NEVER happens), so I get to stay home guilt-free! (Also pay-free, unfortunately, but that's not unreasonable.) That means that I will be able to take my personal holiday tomorrow, for a long weekend, short work-week, and hopefully plenty of time for the snow to melt and the city transportation to right itself.

And now ... now I think I shall continue what I started last night, and keep learning to play Guitar Hero. 8D
Mood:: 'grateful' grateful

Happy birthday! Sounds like an overall good birthday :) Sorry we missed your dinner--we spent the weekend snowed in :(

If Kershach is anything like my kitties, they are fascinated by their humans talking into the little devices pressed up against their faces. So he probably came to check it out and listen to you talk.

I hope you're enjoying your extra day off :D

Thank you! It was a very low-key and relaxed birthday, just what I wanted.

You know, Kershach must have heard me talking, and realized that I was awake (usually bed = asleep and therefore boring). Once he got there he ignored my phone and just paid attention to pettins. XD

I see you're at work - I hope the commute goes well.
