Happy birthday to Babel~!
Today is a very special day indeed. Not only does it happen to be the birthday of my favouritest person Babel, but it marks the day on which he officially ceases to be A Young Person and has instead become a Grown-Up 
Oh yes, Babel has now reached the ripe old age of
For various reasons I met up with him last night rather than today, and was able to give him his present(s). His main present, which I had spent an entire blog post agonising about earlier in the year, was a Nintendo Wii. I know as little about Nintendo wiis as I do about carburettors, but it comes in a nice-looking box, and despite the fact that Babel had apparently more or less guessed that that was what he was getting, I think he quite liked it 
I gave him a few books as well, just in case he didn’t. Two of them he’d bought himself for me to give to him, two were things he’d mentioned that he might be interested in reading, and another two were books I chose at random on the basis that I’d read them from the library years ago and enjoyed them. And of course there was his Economist subscription, which is his official present if my mother asks you
Last night I was trying to work out how much he had changed since when I first got to know him. That shouldn’t actually be too difficult to figure out, but it was complicated by the fact that when I initially got to know him I had an impression of him which as I later got to know him better, I found out wasn’t actually terribly accurate. He’s a lot nicer than I had originally thought But I think he has genuinely changed quite a bit over the past few years, become more mature, which is a good thing. In any case, I love him rather a lot and although we didn’t ultimately achieve our aim of having our own place by his birthday, I hope that’s something which will still happen in the near future
