My birthday and work anniversary are one day apart, so my team showered me with love today. 🥺 I was told the balloons were specifically for my anniversary though! The animals all had varying reactions to them though. 😂

I recently started getting my nails professionally done, partially because I was fed up with my nails constantly breaking, but also I needed a pick me up IRL. I dislike the sensory elements of getting them done, but I feel so boujee and like I have my life together afterwards. 💅✨

A cute little sticker prompt from IG: 5 games to get to know me. 🎮 …but it’s hard to ✨only✨ pick 5 when you’ve been gaming for 30 years. 🤣 I know I even left some out on my honourable mentions slide! What are your top 5 games to get to know you?

My favourite part about Expedition 33 is that I’m currently 32, going on 33 this year. So it would be my expedition/gommage year. For those who come after. ✨

Some things never change 😌 My first Dragon Quest game was Dragon Warrior 3 on the Gameboy Color. I never figured out how to beat it, so here’s hoping I can 23 years later. 😏
