Quite Possibly My Favorite Birthday Present Ever

Wikipedia my birthday, December 19th, and the first event to come up is such:

Publius Septimius Geta, co-emperor of Rome, is lured to come without his bodyguards to meet his brother Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (Caracalla), to discuss a possible reconciliation. When he arrives the Praetorian Guard murders him and he dies in the arms of his mother Julia Domna.

Awesome

Prelude to an epic, for sure.

 

My girlfriend kept me in suspense this year with my birthday gift. All she would tell me is that she ordered it off ebay and that it would be late. I tried guessing but kept coming up short. Finally, it arrived in the mail on the 23rd. I gripped it tight with both hands and was a bit perplexed to discover that the package was floppy and soft (A-oh)

Love it!!!

It's a replica jersey, not an actual game used one, and it's beyond awesome! I've been looking at getting a jersey this past year, but never get past bitching about their price tags.

So far I've only worn it around the house but I've been super cautious about when I wear it. Like, I won't wear it while I'm eating (I can be a bit messy) and I'll only wear it on days after I've taken a shower.
