plans

It's my friend's birthday in just a few hours. This friend likes plans as much as I do and has at least 5 big time plans in place for 2010. A birthday plan is always essential - especially one that includes pizza, pubbage and wine! And as luck would have it, this is precisely what we will mostly be doing on Tuesday evening!

In other news, another weekend has flown by far too fast for my liking. I hope the next one hangs out a little bit longer, or failing that, a couple extra hours in each day would do just as nicely - thanks!

Pug-Tastic

It was Lucy's birthday on Friday and seeing as she is pretty much pug-obsessed, it seemed only fitting that her birthday gift should be pretty pug-tastic!

Above is her card, an extra-specially-wrinkly, gift-wrapped, party-hat-wearing pug, and below is a pug phone cover I designed for her, and a wooden pug brooch using the same drawing. I think she named that one Fred.



The phone cover came out great and I desperately want one for myself, but as I can be terribly fickle, I'm having trouble coming up with something to put on it that I won't get bored of...!

But yes, a big Happy Birthday Lucy, my pug-loving pal!

what would morrissey say?

When my Morrissey/Smiths loving friend's birthday rolled round yesterday I couldn't resist channelling the words of the big man himself. Of course I don't actually wish him a miserable birthday - birthdays are far too much fun and should never be miserable occasions, I just thought that perhaps if Mr Morrissey were to be handing out a birthday greeting, it would be this.

Also, i just need to say ta ever so much to Lucy for helping me out with the new blog layout. It's her Birthday-Eve on Thursday, her last day of being 24, and her actual Birthday on Friday. I'm very much looking forward to helping her celebrate her quarter century this weekend!
