Thanks and thanks and more thanks

I can't thank enough all of the Cellar folks who came along, participated, celebrated, contributed, etc to my 40th SURPRISE birthday party tonight!

You guys are the greatest, and if I seemed out of it at all, it's because my head was spinning. (I'm trying to remember if I managed to introduce everyone...)

Pictures will be posted as soon as they can be downloaded from all the various cameras and resized.

I swear I smiled more tonight than I have all year.

Oh yeah, Happy Birthday to U....t.

Happy Birthday

Hey, Ton... Sorry I didn't make it. Having a little one makes it hard to make it to things like this. A friend forwarded me an invite and I really wanted to make it. I am VERY glad that you enjoyed yourself.

Thanks to everyone for doing this for him!!!

Ah, to be 40 again! Full of piss and vinegar, grasping the world by its balls, ready to strike out and face any challenge...oh. Wait. That was 21, wasn't it.

Nevermind.

All the best wishes for you in the coming year. You are loved and appreciated, even if only by a group of people largely composed of text on a screen...


I made a crude card for this occasion, UT. If it was a real card, the inside would read "Bill truly loved birthdays, but he drank, and consequently, his usual eloquence suffered a bit."

Pictures


Please hold...


Surprise - and it was. The blur here is the camera trying to auto-focus in the dark. But you can tell I'm freaked out!


xoxoxoBruce, Lady Sycamore, Rob, and Sycamore


Wolf, Lady Sycamore, Sycamore


Dave, Wolf, and Slang in the amused state they were in all night.


A speculative richlevy.


Me and the cake.


Sharon looks on at the cutting process, and I can be such a ham.


Many non-cellarites: Alayne, Faye, Rob, Ken, Roberta, and me.


The bill arrives: Syc, Roberta, me (hamming it up again), Sharon (the accountant grimaces at bills), Rob, SteveDallas


Home with the dogs: Bean has good taste in beer. Pearl has good taste in wads of wooly fabric.


SteveDallas watches Pearl gather a big wad of wooly in her mouth to suckle on it.

A good time was indeed had by all.

Happy Birthday, UT! I was very glad to be able to enjoy the time with you and everyone else!
