Yesterday was a rather nice and new approach to my birthday gathering. It used to be that we invited the whole bunch to come 'round at the same time as seems to be the tradition in the Netherlands. Family and friends, all together at the same time in the same house.
This time around though, we hadn't planned anything real for my birthday; we were actually planning on either ignoring it or postponing it for a few weeks. Our family had other plans though, so a few folks invited themselves ^_^ Since things were underway anyway, I just told the others to come when it suited them. So instead of having a house chockfull of guests, we now had a stream of people taking turns. That was actually quite nice! :)
It gave us the time to have a chat with Menno and his new girlfriend. It gave us the time to talk the whole baby-deal over with my and Marli's parents. We were able to discuss some important stuff with Marli's brother and I was able to finish off the evening with a showing of Clerks II with some of my good friends.
Thanks everyone! We had a great day :)

Last night we got together with some friends to celebrate Peter's birthday, which was last week. It was nice to finally meet some people from Peter's WoW Guild.
As a present, we gave Peter a bottle of Drambuie, which is a whiskey-liquor with honey and various herbs. Opening the bottle immediately made me think of our Daro cough syrup :D While I usually loathe whiskey, I have to admit that I'm surprised that I actually -like- Drambuie!
Anywho: it was a great evening and made for a perfect distraction from my homework. ^_^

Tomorrow's officially Marli's birthday. We celebrated it last Sunday with all of our friends and family, which was awesome. We also part-celebrated my birthday as well, though that was back in June. We got some absolutely lovely presents from everyone, so thankyouthankyouthankyou to everyone!
Our collective parents+partners pitched in together, to buy Marlijne the latest Harry Potter Lego castle. She's absolutely nuts about Harry Potter Lego, so there you go :) I have to say that it -is- a lovely boxset!
And one never outgrows Lego!

Well, technically we won't and technically it is ^_^
Officially, in about half an hour's time, I've turned twenty-eight. Doesn't feel much different than twenty-seven. *looks around* Nope... Everything still seems to be the same. *shrug*
Oh hey! I got a great present in the mail yesterday! Wrapped in a big Moomin enveloppe, so I just knew it was from my mom and her husband :) They got me The witches of Chiswick, which I was recommended a few months back. Awesome :) Thanks mom! Thanks Erik!
EDIT:
Some of you may wonder whether I'm not just a little too old to be into Moomin. First off I'd say in a Bugs Bunny voice that you don't know me vewy well, do he? Then I'd explain that Moomin stories never fail to make me feel just a little more relaxed and happy. They are stories of adventure and of small joys... Of being happy with what life provides you with.

It's my dad's birthday today; he's turned 61. Congrats dad! ^_^
What with the big staff meeting this afternoon, Marli and I visited my dad's place in Veenendaal last night. We'd decided to go for a pretty long stay since my sister+boyfriend would also be there, as well as my brother Mistoffelees who'd come over from Finland. All the siblings were together again for a day :)
It definitely was one of our nicer family get-togethers, with a barbecue, great food and an alltogether good time. My best friend Menno also dropped by since it'd been a long time since he'd seen everyone. I ended up crashing at Menno's place, since Marli needed to get home earlier than I wanted to leave. Unfortunately I got called for my stand-by duty around 0030, so that put a little dent in my mood (especialy given the fact that it was a false alarm caused by $CLIENT's customer).
My darling sister had brought my dad two bottles of champagne for after dinner and she was sweet enough to bring me a can of Guiness as well :D This allowed me to mix two Black Velvets, which were as good as I remembered them to be! It was also great to see the horrified looks of some of my family members as I was "ruining good champagne" by mixing it with Guiness ^_^

And it's time for yet another mini-update!
My birthday will be coming up shortly (Yay for the 29th of June!) and combining that with at least two other birthdays within the family will mean that we will get to see a lot of our family this month. This is a good thing of course, 'cause usually we don't see enough of them :) Staying on the topic of birthdays: Marli gave me my present about two weeks early 'cause she just couldn't hold the surprise anymore ^_^ SHE BOUGHT ME A FRIGGIN' 40G iPOD!! OMFG! So right now I'm working hard on converting all of my CD's to AAC, so I can take them with me, everywhere I go.
Also, the last couple of days I had a little inspiration when it came to drawing comics and I decided to try something new. Actually, this new format was a bit of a necesity because I was supposed to be doing something else at the time. Drawing this way allowed me to draw a bit while remaining at least a little inconspicuous ;) It's three pages worth and I'll put them up in the Comics section.
P.S.
Oh yeah! Before I forget!.. About a month ago I finished my work on the first translation of iBank into the dutch language. Be sure to check out the IGG Software site if you're looking for an easy accounting suite for the Apple Mac.
