it's my birthday

not really. but hotmail thinks it is because apparently when i started up my account, i typed in that my birthday was 31/12/1987 for no good reason. so today when i checked my email, i was greeted by a special little birthday greeting from hotmail that says to put my feet up and relax because today is my special day.
don't mind if i do, thanks, don't mind if i do.
it felt kind of like the time a few years ago when i for no good reason changed my birthday on facebook from june 20 to january 20 [stop me if i've told you this story before] and some very good friends threw me a surprise birthday party complete with presents and a dairy queen ice cream cake.
oops.
imagine my sheepishness when, after being sung to, i blew out the candles and admitted that it wasn't "actually my birthday todayyy but...thanks for the party and the stuff and i'll see y'all again in june?"
but the point is not that.
the point is i drew you three pictures to send a secret message:

oh my gosh. i feel so stupid. i thought this said "happy you here" like, you're happy that we're here.

so i was going to say "happy to be here!" but then clearly i misinterpreted.

happy new year! haha.
