Kind of a silly pic, isn't it? But if you can't be silly on your birthday, when can you? ^_^
The boa, tiara (and matching necklace) all came from Toys R' Us a few weeks ago. The wife and I went in their on a whim, and I happened to notice this stuff. I think I said something offhand about how I never got to do the whole "princess" thing for birthdays when I was little. That was rectified. It's about 25 years late, but it did mean a lot to me to finally be able to do something like this (even if that tiara was intended for a much smaller head and I had to take it off before the night was done). XD
Interestingly, the dress I'm wearing in this shot is technically a prom dress. I got it a some years back after noticing some dramatic price drops post-prom season. I don't normally have any functional use for something like this, but I never got to do prom right back in the day either. Let it be said, it's never too late to do whatever you want to do. ^_^
This was taken last night at my party. A small gathering of friends came over for pizza and cake and laughs. It was simple and quiet, but it was fun and I really enjoyed myself (and I hope everyone else did too).
Today was my actual birthday though. I adventured all over town in search of the Wave 4 Amiibo that just happened to release today. Although I only brought home Ness (the one I least expected to find today), I received confirmation that my preordered Jigglypuff is in town and will probably arrive tomorrow. A good friend also managed to snag Lucina and Robin for me too. What a fortuitous day! ^_^
Geeking out aside, it was a good birthday. Hopefully following in suit, here's to a good year as well. And thanks for all the well-wishings and Rain fan art I've received too! It means the world to me.
Happy birthday!! I love Rain, and since i caught up a few days ago after speed reading it all in 3 days, I've been eagerly awaiting each new page. I'm glad you had fun for your birthday and I can't wait for many more chapters of Rain to come! <3
I created an account here just to leave a comment here... I have been reading this comic for a few months now (and have re-read the whole thing twice now), and I absolutely love it. I love the art style, the characters are fun and real, and I absolutely adore the plotlines!
More importantly: Happy birthday! You are totally awesome!
I hope you are having a fabulous birthday with your wife. You are lookin' gorgeous in your boa. I also love the dress. Thanks for making the Rain webcomic 'cause I absolutely love it! Hope you have a great many more years to live life to the fullest and to make more Rain pages, of course! :]
You look really lovely in this photo btw :)
Also, as I don't know if the older comics get hits as often, but when did Vincent stop being Rain's Therapist? I seem to have missed that part.
