I'm late with everything this post, for which I apologize. But since I celebrate my birthday the entire month of August, it works out in the end. ;) And it's still August most places in the world...

My heartfelt thanks to all of you. I got private messages, emails, birthday posts, V-gifts... And I appreciate every one. You guys are the best! *loves* ♥

A special shout out to enchanted_jae for finishing the half-drabble she wrote for my half-birthday in February *g* and for the birthday ficlet.

First, you should check out the half-drabble Ticket to Paradise 2 (read the first half HERE).

And, don't forget the sexy ficlet! Sans Speedo features Harry in a speedo and crafty!Draco loving every minute. *g*

If I forgot anything do poke me because this month I was a bit distracted (back to back HP cons will do that).

*hugs and glomps*

I got more birthday pressies, you guys!

The always fabulous enchanted_jae wrote me Regrettable Decision 8, a fun H/D fic in which Draco drives Harry crazy. *g*

I also got a gorgeous Ruby heart V-gift, from kitty_fic!

And I got a birthday card post from mrs_sweetpeach!

Thank you, all! You gave me a huge smile. <3

So even though my birthday is long gone, I am still getting pressies!

enchanted_jae wrote Take the Cake, a delicious (heh) H/D fic.

torino10154 wrote It's the Company a sexy, sweet Snarry.

The delightful demicus sent the loveliest E-card. *dances*

And, while it wasn't for my BD, it was nevertheless a gift: articcat621 wrote Not So Unrequited, a yummy Kingsley/Hermione fic for me!

Thank you, all! *glomps*

Hey, all!
*waves*
Just checking in long enough to say thank you for all the birthday wishes. *smooches*

Also, I had a fabulous day, which I shall tell you all about in detail prolly tomorrow since it's now night here and I'm exhausted.
But, long story short, I got to meet the utterly delightful smirkingcat and we had lunch and chatted and she even gave me a quick tour of her city, so it was a fabulous fandom day.

More later! Must sleep now. Zzzzzzz.

♥

So I owe everyone a huge update on ~stuff, but first, let's discuss the fun happy things. I promise a RL update tomorrow.
So, let's discuss Birthday pressies! *g*

I got so many fabulous messages and love notes and gifts you guys, thank you so much! And if I missed anyone's message or post or pressie, please just poke me as I am a bit distracted these days. *smooches*
( Anyway. Seriously, look at my bounty )
And those pressies don't even take into account the snuggly blanket sevfan sent me *cuddles her*, and the flowers, cards, and edible arrangement from lilyeyes.

You guys, I feel completely spoiled, so thank you!

OH! And last but never least, this gift from the fabulous capitu totally made me cry, so I'm sharing so you can all tear up with me. ♥

And this is why I love my friends, the birthday gifts just keep on coming!

First, my darling sassy_cissa sent me flowers in the most adorable ladybug pot.

The, the very sweet kitty_fic sent mw the most adorable Vgift *cuddles cuddly teddy bear in a box*

And finally, the lovely digthewriter created fic and art for me! In other words, hold my hand is a beautifully fluffy and sweet H/D, and the art, which features the boys holding hands, made me smile.

Thank you, dears! You all rock. ♥

Eeeee!
Thank you to lilyseyes and to felaine for the birthday cards!

It's been a rough week, so they gave me a much needed smile! Thanks for thinking of me, lovelies!

And OMG they were perfect.
You guys, they sent me LOLcat magnets! Eeeee!

*bounces*

Thank you so much, bbs! *smooches and loves*

So as many of you know, this has been a rough year personally and professionally, so I can't even tell you how much your outpourings of birthday love yesterday and today have meant to me. *hugs everyone*
I tried to keep track of everything but if I missed anyone or anything, poke me, all right? I was...kinda indulging with some martinis last night, so the vision may not have been too on the ball. ;)

soleo_lion wrote me Bravely Facing Forward, more sweet Snarry (are you sensing a theme?)
lutienlovemagic posted Gifts for me, and a real gift it is, too. :)
myk_myk made me giggle with Not a Good Present, which is delightfully naughty.
torino10154 wrote Romantic Getaway, which, as the title suggests, is sweetly and sexily romantic Snarry.
My BFF lilyseyes wrote A Surprise Birthday, a story from one of my very favorite universes of hers, featuring plot, danger, excitement and a fluffy and tender ending that will make you grin. ♥
And finally, enchanted_jae posted the completion of the H/D half-drabble she started on my half birthday back in February. It's called Big Secret Part 2 and it is, of course, adorable. And for the hilarious history of our half-drabble tradition, check out this post.

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. *smooches*

I'm sure I missed seeing something somewhere, so feel free to let me know what/where and I will acknowledge your thoughtfulness, which I really do appreciate. It's likely that there will be a few more of these posts before the month is out, however, (I've decided to celebrate all month this year since 2013 owes me). *g*

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Thank you, felaine for the early birthday card! *hugs*
Pretty butterflies are pretty and gave me a huge smile! ♥
