It's been a lovely birthday weekend.

Friday, Rayne and I went over to

fajrdrako's and ordered in pizza and watched RENT because we were in the mood for a musical and I'd been meaning to rewatch it. I'll now have the songs stuck in my head for the next month.

Saturday, our friends Sarah and Alan came over for dinner and brought delicious homemade cupcakes. We had a delicious dinner and played Dixit and sat up talking for hours.

Tonight, Marna, Rayne, Ian and I went out for Greek tapas, which was delicious.

I had Marna take a picture because I thought I looked really cute.

When we got home Rayne came upstairs and buzzed the sides of my hair, thus making it look like I have an actual haircut again.

I've also spent the weekend rereading Matt Fraction-era X-Men comics. This is the era when I got back into reading comics after years away and I just love it. The X-Men are a big, ever-expanding, intergenerational soap opera, and Fraction totally got that. He had a core team, sure, but there were a lot of appearances by mutants from every X-era. Also, it's funny, which is something I can't say about many more-recent X-books.
