Real Kato Blog: Even Older Than Before

Yeah, I had another one of them birthday-thingies.

Well, hello, blog! How have you been? I've been so busy; sorry I've been out of touch. And by "busy", I mean "recovering from a bunch of drinking".

This last weekend was my birthday, so Amy threw me a combination birthday and bar-warming party. Well, FIRST we had a little private celebration, the details of which I'll omit. Hey, look at the cake!

When other people showed up for the party, I was reminded of just how beautiful and fabulous my friends really are. I mean, honestly:

And of course, there's my hunny bunny, the most beautiful of them all:

The glasses we are holding say "AKBAR" on them. Those fabulous things were a gift from my friend Anna, who continues to prove that she's my Best Friend Forever.

Near the end of the party, my memory gets a little fuzzy. I do remember that we finally remembered to bring out cake after two-thirds of the people had already left, and I made some drunken attempt to blow out three little candles:

Since it was also my friend Ann's birthday, she came over to help with the candle-blowing:

I think between the two of us, we eventually managed to get all the candles snuffed.

The last half hour of the party is a complete blur. The funny thing is, I wasn't making myself any drinks; I was just drinking whatever was leftover in the martini shaker when I made other people drinks. I guess that was enough!

p.s. Thanks to Erika, Javi, Earl, Jen, and Steve for calling to wish me a happy birthday! And Earl and Steve, happy birthday to you guys too; I'm glad to say you'll always be older than me.

KEN!!! JOYEUX ANNIVERSAIRE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! FELIZ CUMPLEANOS! (That means happy accumulation of anuses, in case you didn't know.)

Everyone is so hot in these pictures! It looks like you had a fantastic celebration. I now have cake envy.

Jenn: Thanks!

Sarah: I read about your cake adventures. You know, I've still got an entire uneaten cake in my house; if only you and your students could come to my house. Also: I think I've got enough anuses to last me a lifetime.

Drinking yourself into a blur? I can't imagine. Oh wait - never mind.

Thanks, Ken! I will propose your offer to my class on Thursday. Free cake and ample anuses chez Ken. I think we could rent the college van if we all chipped in. I'll bring my own pillow!

...I'll "always be older than you" you, ya whipper-snapper! Young people today! No respect for there elders. When I was your age we didn't have Mac's with Intel chips, or video iPods, we had to make due with the plain old audio kind.
