After a promise made way back in 2005, I was finally able to accompany magical_sphere (aka Pippin) to a Green Day concert!

It all happened yesterday and for me it was an adventure even just getting there! I went straight from work to the concert's venue and, since I work in a bank, you can imagine that it wasn't easy adapting my wardrobe to the situation. I ( Read more... )

Once again, my birthday came along. Years sure have started to run by me a little faster than I was used to... =P Since being out of work pretty much demands my whole attention right now, I didn't really make a big fuss about getting a year older. Still, there was time for a little hurrah in the shape of lunch with the ever present King and Pippin ( Read more... )

Since Deviantart (and particularly Gintamards) is such a wonderful place, I was fortunate enough to receive two gifts from two of the marvellous people I got to know over there, even though I have been kind of MIA for the past month.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PIPPIN!! I know it was two days ago, but it still counts! The celebration happened today anyway, so it was the best day to post about it.

Since it's rather cold outside, we chose an exclusively indoors celebrations (which is what we do most of the time), with a caloric lunch at Burger King followed by my first purchase ever at a ( Read more... )

Unexpectedly, I've been spending quite a bit of my online time over the last six months hanging around on Deviantart. The reason this is surprising is that I'm not an artist in any way, shape or form. I can't draw to save my life and any photo I take can only be considered pseudo-artistic at best. My account over there is sparkling-phoenix and I ( Read more... )

I would like to welcome everyone to this brand new year of 2009! I can only wish and hope that it be as full of pleasant surprises as 2008 was. Looking back, I'm going to dare to say I've had a good year. =D

And with this spirit of positivity I wish each and everyone of you a tremendously happy 2009, full of the good things that make up the joys of ( Read more... )

Although I am clearly a few days behind, I couldn't let the great teresabloom 's birthday go unnoticed!

♥HAPPY BIRTHDAY OH GREAT AND GLORIOUS KING!♥ I wish you nothing but happiness, good health and the will to keep partying with us crazy people for years to come!

We repeated one more of our already typical but always fun celebrations of getting together, ( Read more... )

On Sunday, amidst all the excitement of telling everything about my friend's wonderful wedding, I forgot to even mention that it's so amazingly freaking HOT over here at the moment! I've been boiling rather than sleeping for the last two days ( Read more... )

OMG

OMG

OMFG

I am very, very far from being an expert when it comes to concerts but last night was absolutely incredible!!

I'll admit that it started out a little rocky, as it was a bit of mess getting inside the venue and finding a nice, safe place to watch the concert from (as it turns out, the whole area directly in front of the stage was ( Read more... )
