On Saturday I attended the 40th birthday party for a friend of mine. (After working a full shift, no less. Blah.)

The theme was "The Prisoner". Said friend's partner had huge Rover-esque balloons all over the yard, and the cake was round and white and had little hands pushing OUT of it, just like Rover had caught someone.

It was both yummy AND disturbing. (and after being carved up, looked like a Raving Rabid, too...)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Got back from NY last night. Had another busy day yesterday, with brunch with my brother and his family (Ok, my brother, his MIL and my nephews...my SIL was feeling ill and stayed in bed) in the morning and a housefilk in the afternoon. (We got lost on the way to the housefilk...stupid google maps)

SH, please tell me that someone had one of those round chairs for the birthday honoree to sit in!

Unfortunately, Kathy, no.

The partner did "rent" a Sonny Bono impersonator to "entertain" us for the evening.

I think that was enough surrealness for the WHOLE YEAR.

Good luck, Jesse!

Home today as work was closed for air quality concerns, but fortunately the air is still good here in the Valley.

Ded now.

Yay, Noah--great song!!! I even recognized it, since he's got a lot of the lyrics down!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I LOVE when little kids end each song by clapping and shouting "Yay!" for themselves! It is adorable.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I can't see films posted on flickr for some reason. Too bad. I could use a dose of cute right now.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Am now done with the moving part - I put some of my stuff in my '73 Mercury Marquis (the car I'm going to donate to charity) and the rest managed to fit in the trunk and back seat of the Crown Vic taxi.

Soon I will head off to the old place for the final time, to attempt to clean as much as I can. But for now I am in my new favorite cafe, eating a healthy garden salad an an unhealthy black cow. Because of all my stress I've had a very poor appetite lately - yesterday and today I've had to force down every meal.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
