Endless October Birthdays

All of my friends' parents decided to have children in October.   There's like some swinger's party that happens on Valentines Days (9 Months before Oct.)  I really thought there were more Gemini babies, but every weekend in October has been full of celebration.



I've decided that I'm bad with birthdays.  I don't even want to look at the facebook birthday reminder on the right side.  It's so easy to write on walls, but that's how lazy I am.  I'm a bad friend.

All of my outings this month have involved a birthday.

Jimmy's 24th
Thai Patio
321

Thai food and kick back.

 I insisted that we recreate the Last Supper with cupcakes and beer on our door table.  The 3 jokers in the back apparently didn't get the memo.

24 cupcakes from an Asian bakery.  One didn't make it.
When we brought out the box Jimmy said, "I'm so glad!! I don't like regular cake."  As a special roommate treat, we decorated his room with yellow (his favorite color) streamers and images from Sex and the City and Wong Kar-wai movies.  :D  Yay.


I remember being a event planner diva-saurus, but Jimmy rewarded me with a cupcake. :P  I discovered that family style was a little difficult with a group of 20.  Too much passing of plates, not enough eating. 


Steve C's 26th
East West lounge in West Hollywood


Lounging.


"LOVE ME," Steve screams.  We let his crazy Korean demands slide for this day.
Some group photos and Ed and Erik wait patiently for their birthday celebration


Ed's 26th
Super Cherry Pop in West Hollywood

Dancing.
Cheers... we lost the birthday boy
So... when Ed got to Cherry Pop he we incoherent.  We then saw security escort him somewhere.  The day after we learned that they had taken him to the kitchen to hose him down because he was so drunk.  And by hose him down I mean give him water and let him sit for a little bit.  Very nice Cherry Pop, much better than kicking people out.  2 thumbs up for you!

We danced, did some model walking and drank lots.


Erik's 27th
Shik Do Rak
Rosen Karaoke

Korean BBQ and Singing to Pop music all night

Erik enjoys Bread pudding from Jaemy/David
Only some pictures from my camera.  Sang our hearts out, drank and ate meat.  Wish I had fiber pills. 

Here's me watching Yonius, the Last Airbender, sing


Steve P's 30 something.  After you're 30 I don't think it matters.  JK.  34th.

Kick back at his bachelor pad.


 I found myself very social - chatted with new faces.  Threw out corny jokes, I was on a roll.  We learned about a Gay Piano bar in Silver Lake called The Other Side that has been added to the bucket list.

I was impressed with this guy named Henry who always approached me at these social events to chat even though we really never talked.  Very nice.  I noticed red marks all over his face.  I was told that he got into a fist fight with someone who called him a fag.  He broke the other guy's nose.  Nice.

Though I'm thankful that each birthday was unique from the rest.  :] Amazing!

Whew!  I've sang Happy Birthday so many times this month that I think I sang it to myself brushing my teeth in the mirror.  I've also forgotten that it's Halloween.  No plans.  No costume.  I confirmed with MoAny that we've reached "that" age.  HOW depressing.

wishing someone happy bday on their fb wall is so utterly pointless.

Just saw your picture in Will's blog. OMG, two of my favorite bloggers in the same picture!

It's actually Will's fault that you get this bedbug vexing on your blog. I start coming here from the link in Will's site.
