Aunt's surprise party went well. With both my cousin and me as previous separate surprises, she REALLY didn't suspect there would be a third surprise, we lulled her into complacency that it would be a dinner at a new place. Instead there was lots of surprise and a little tears.
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

Thanks, guys!
I'll have more when i have my spoons back, so don't think my terseness in in gratitude, because i am very grateful.
I don't think I could do this without you and your support.

Punishingly Intricate
Hoard yer spoons!
Good advice!! Hope it all goes as smoothly as possible. And we'll definitely have to have a mid-Atlantic get together when you're settled, Strix.

That's a big change, Strix -- but it will also be an adventure, which is kind of cool

Loki's on bupes. I'm not sure why I find this so hilarious. Except that my cats have all been on harder drugs than I ever have.

Take your time building up spoons, Strix.
That's great to read, Theo.
They are white rabbits, Zen. Of course, I don't have food coloring lying around, but I could get some. Oh wait, I do have some lying around. As part of the cake I'm supposed to be making tonight. Oops. Better get on that...
ETA: forgot to hit post before wandering off to the kitchen. Cake is actually in the oven now.

Dabbed a bit of a blue streak onto Lucy's head. Or Ethel's. I will observe and decide.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Will rabbits wear collars?
I saw some wild baby bunnies last night, out behind the patio of the private restaurant room that we had the party in. It was as swanky as you could want.
Today I'm getting a ride back to Boston with my cousin's family. Her daughter is going to Tufts in the fall, so they're checking out the dorm where she'll be and signing her up for stuff and so on. So I've got some more Family Time ahead of me, which is good.
