After a little over 24 hours, I am still not quite over my birthday celebration last evening. My housemates secretly evited several friends from the Atlanta Bucks and Netherworld Haunted House to come out to The Imperial Fez to help me creep into the 40's. I was only expecting at the most, 6-8 people to show up. To my utter shock, we ended up being a party of 19! It was quite overwhelming to know that so many people give such a big damn about me. So we reveled in the 5-course Morrocan fare, belly dancers including one male one who did a candle dance that no man or no person should be able to contort their bodies to do. And the capper was an extremely grand gesture of generosity spearheaded by
huffdaddyatl that was absolutely unexpected and very deeply appreciated. I can't truly express how it feels to know that I am surrounded by so many kind souls who care so much for me and my well-being. I don't know what I've done to deserve such riches. I only hope in some small way, I can return the love that has been expressed to those who expressed it to me.
Everyone in the world should be so lucky!
