1. I forgot to take my annual birthday photo. Whoops. So 8 days later here’s an extra special pic for my 31st.

2. A friend told me this great joke which involves hand gestures. I’m not very good at telling jokes, but I want to get good at telling this joke. Request it next time you see me.

3. I got a great job and neglected to say more publicly ‘yay!’ about it. In case you didn’t know I’m now working with the Mozilla Foundation and Peer 2 Peer University (P2PU) coordinating the School of Webcraft. It’s an awesome project which lets people learn web development skills for free in a peer based environment.

You really should get involved. Offer to lead a course, or participate and learn web skills alongside other lovely people.

4. 2 months ago (today) I got engaged to the man previously known as The Contender or the Bearded Maths Captain. You could now call him The Intended, or TiBo.

The Romantic Story: We got engaged on a dike in the Netherlands after a week of sailing. TiBo said “What do you reckon we get married?” and gave me a ring made out of aluminium pipe and LEDs. I almost fell over with happiness.

If anyone tells you that being engaged doesn’t feel any different to normal life, they are possibly not doing it correctly. Being engaged to TiBo feels amazing and sparkly and even better than the way life was before. I’m so happy that I’m going to spend the rest of my life with him.
