Things I've gotten for my birthday so far...

[soc_puppet]

Because I want to brag about it :D
From friends (in general): Birthday well-wishes.
From Chris (specific friend): Pina Colada fudge, which I am hoarding in my room like a packrat.
From phantom_kaito: A response to my Humorscope Fic Challenge (which may not have actually been for my birthday, but was posted then, so I'm counting it).
From summercloud: A response to the Apotoxin victim-Ed line, an excuse to write the Furuba/Saiyuki crackfic and work on the short Heiji thing.
From non-nuclear family: Clothes, money.
From Tomas (younger brother): Tsubasa, volume 3. (Fai doesn't know how to whistle. Must... Resist... Straight... Line...!)
From Dad: Kanji dictionary, Kanji workbook
From Mom (combo birthday & X-mas gift): Software to upgrade Photoshop to the latest version.
So all in all, yesterday was a very happy birthday for me indeed ^_^.
