Birthday went off in the most low-key way possible: nary a phone call in sight and the only people who dropped by were family. Which my brain could very easily spin in bad ways* but instead I rolled with it because my expectations for the day were pretty much nil.
( Tl;dr went shopping, didn't buy anything, ate food, watched Goose save the world. )
I did get a donation on the FB fundraiser thing I decided to do since the people most likely to donate to that wouldn't buy me a gift anyway, but of course the donation was from someone who had, in the past, given a gift. I'd say whoops, but good cause and all that.
Oh, and if you were dying to know, the birthday nail color this year was Essie's Tangoed In Love which I did not realize was matte, despite the fact that the link I just included mentioned it. So I got a little chuckle when I realized that back when I bought it, I'd also bought a matte top coat without realizing they were kinda made for each other. That said, I prefer this with a shiny top coat as without it looks kinda plastic-y and it's just prettier with a glossy finish. So I'll be redoing my right hand (the one without the glossy topcoat) sometime today. Also? It perfectly matched most of the Halloween lights I checked out yesterday AND my bathing suit. Snazzy.
