Happy Birthday To Me... And To You!

Apr 16, 2006 19:35

Much appreciation to Angela, Zippy, Neha, Natasha, and Jennifer for making our birthday party fun!



Zippy is becoming my favorite drinking pal in Dubai.



Jennifer - "more a rockstar today than a flower," or whatever I kept saying about her.



Neha doesn't look that outrageous, but she's from L.A., so that should have tipped us off.



Zippy got bored with karaoke early, whereas Natasha sang until 10:00 a.m.



Most of the pictures I took were like this, only blurrier.



The last non-blurry picture. I blame Stacy for sending us that drinking game.



The next morning, Natasha cooked, ate, and enjoyed lamb - then asked us for the recipe - before knowing it was lamb! HA! And Don's wearing a dress, see?

How come nobody took pictures of Angela or me? We were looking hot!

How does that Wikipedia meme go? Three births, three deaths, and three events, or something like that? I was saving it for my birthday, and now I'm late...

That was intense, wasn't it? Most of the "events" belong under the "deaths" category. Hey, remember that rumor that Linda Perry had died?
