happy early birthday, you hag

Due to some scheduling conflicts with my sister's wedding and work, I don't have time to celebrate my birthday anytime close to my ACTUAL birthday, so I went out this past saturday to do some partying at Bootie, my very first mashup party. thank goodness it didn't let me down! i had a suuuuuch a great time. everybody who came out was in an awesome, silly mood (big ups to all my buddies who made it out. you all rock big time and I love all of you). The vibe of the club and the diverse crowd seemed perfect to me, as this is my number one complaint about having to go to homogenous "asian" clubs or any club based on ethnicity. I can't really imagine having gone to anywhere else to celebrate the big two-five..it was like bootie was created specifically for me and my enjoyment!

I didn't jump on any cowboys this year, much to everybody's disappointment, but I did take a picture with a woman in a banana suit! and while I didn't fall asleep in front of my kitchen or have any other silly things happen to me, I think this year was equally fun. It was still a better night than over last year overall.

moments of note:

• m.poynter got ugly drunk and puked out the window and all over the outside of lil g's car. he was my dale this year.


• Cherry's new style of scream dancing a la star wars - DA DA DA, DA DA-DA, DA DA-DA!!!


• David constantly doing universal symbol for "call me" - cheese smile, hand up to ear with thumb and pinky extended outwards


• lionel surprising me as a crazed man pulling out ridiculous dance moves. I mean he's half black and all, but one shouldn't automatically make those assumptions.


• did I let steven touch my boob?


• a lot of screaming and uncoordinated waving of arms. god, i'm sexy.

definitely some other good moments, but those are best saved for my own memory. thank you again to all my friends who somehow still love me year after year and come out to celebrate. These past two birthdays have been the best yet.

Just 12 more days before I become an old hag, so I will be off now to go cling to my last vestiges of youth.
