Party Night!

Brian and Steph threw a party tonight at their place, for Brian's students to get together-- and to celebrate my passing and being done!  I found out yesterday that my corrections are sustained and I get to actually graduate at the ceremony, so I have good reason to party!  There were several couples there, three of whom I'd only met once or not at all;  it was nice to meet and chat and hang out, but the best part was once those with wee ones went home and left the Brocks and the Prathers and I.  Good times with good friends, indeed!

I walked home in the wet and chill, but I didn't feel it.  Partly because of the warm fellowship I'd shared, and partly because I'd had two large glasses of wine, two drams of nice whisky, and a glass of champagne on one plate of delicious food.  I was feeling darn good, and I deserved it!  It was pretty, though, with the lights shining on the wet roads.  At least I thought so.  ;)

Lordy, Lordy...

guess who's 40! 

We had a 'surprise' fiesta for my supervisor.  It was great fun, and he took it pretty well.  Then again, maybe his hearing is gone so he couldn't hear our teasing.  He is 40 now.  =D

Happy Spider Cake, Paige!

We've had a long and fun weekend in the capitol, but we needed a cake to bring back to wee Alva.  We tried a bakery in Stockbridge, but they were always closed.  So we went to Waitrose, and hit paydirt!  I love his shifty eyes..

This cute guy was even half price.  Now how's that for a birthday gift?!  Happy Birthday, Paige!

Old Testament Times

Lynch had a theme party tonight centred on the Old Testament.  We had verses on the walls, and some verses to back up the food choices, and we all had to come in costume.  It was great!  I love theme parties, and I love fancy dress.  Here is the gracious hostess (I'm sure you can guess what she dressed as!):
