Although I take comfort in the fact that it will go on for a while in other timezones. The wonders of the world.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been a generally okay day. A big bus strike sort of shot down my plans. But the busses started going later in the day and I managed to go to the library and give back the overdue video. And then I picked up my new 19 inch flatscreen monitor. And let me tell you, it&#8217;s a thing of beauty. Going from a 15 inch to a 19 inch monitor is like going from a&#8230; hmm I was going to make a penis analogy, but I better not. Suffice it to say that I&#8217;m loving my new monitor.<\/p>\n<p>Had a little cake with mother and brother. That was nice. Nice chicken dinner too. And Daddy called from Greenland and we had a nice chat. <\/p>\n<p>So that was okay, you can&#8217;t expect much more when you&#8217;re a social phobic shut-in. I have had worse birthdays, and I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll have better. But I&#8217;m feeling okay and that&#8217;s the main thing. My favourite parts of the day were two birthday visits from Moomincat though. Both times I walked into my room and found him sitting on my bed.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-2930\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2006\/060315_moomincat2_th.jpg\" ALT=\"cat\" TITLE=\"cat\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Almost like he was waiting for me to come.<\/p>\n<p>He was a tired little kitty.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-2927\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2006\/060315_moomincat3_th.jpg\" ALT=\"cat\" TITLE=\"cat\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Snuggled up between my legs.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-2928\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2006\/060315_moomincat4_th.jpg\" ALT=\"cat\" TITLE=\"cat\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Are these pictures freaky? I promise I&#8217;m wearing pants. And I&#8217;m sorry for all the flabby, white flesh.

When he got up he jumped down on the floor and stretched out. And I mean streeeeetched. His legs in front of him. It reminded me of Hobbes from Calvin &#038; Hobbes. It looked so cute.
