To Those in the Know

I'm in Cork! I surprised my Spectre at the airport when the intrepid travellers of Spectre fame returned, because he didn't know I was back yet. He squealed and everything, it was awesome. And then there was some jumping into my arms and getting spun around action. I seem to have a habit of surprising him on my birthday. Which I completely approve of.
Speaking of my birthday, it is today. And I get to spend it with my friends and my husband, watching the amazing Adrina perform onstage. It's going to be wonderful! And then we'll be returning home for an epic reunion with the family. I know one little boy who talked about seeing his daddy again all day yesterday, and he just might not let go of Spectre for a week, I think. Somehow, I don't think Spectre will have a problem with that. Though James might have to battle with Mara... And Marie is getting possessive too. SO CUTE!
We met Isla Littleton the other day. She's our half-sister, and completely adorable. After the initial strangeness, which I won't explain because it's not really my business to do so, it was a completely wonderful time with completely wonderful people. I still haven't gotten to meet Galina, but I feel completely and totally blessed that the family is growing. To me, it doesn't matter how Isla and Galina came about (I don't need a diagram...) what matters is that they're here, and they're family.
I am so full of love right now! It might be because I got to see my Spectre again, and there were relations. Also epic. Mmmm yes.
Or it could be that it's just my default mode. Again. Finally. :D!

You guys are such an old movie couple, one in black and white with piano.
Happy birthday, zombieman.

My surprise sibling is in the kitchen with my wife, being all charming and strangely energetic...

I have a fondness in my heart for Jeremy, seeing as he saved me and all! Aly better be feeding him something nutritious. I get the feeling he usually eats bar peanuts and sausage rolls from a quik-e-mart.

Our reunion with the family is going to be most excellent. I can't wait to see the kids! And to meet Isla, she sounds lovely.
I love you!

Date: 2009-11-23 09:12 am (UTC)It's great to see you back, Thomas, as always. Happy birthday! We'll have to celebrate when you get back. Of course, I don't doubt that there's already been plenty of celebrating already...
no subject
Date: 2009-11-23 09:15 am (UTC)Oh yes there has been! Naked celebrating! And then poor Spectre was tired so I watched him sleep in a completely uncreepy way!
I can't wait to see you, Babe.
