My dear sister, Anita Vacation, and my mother, Mom, wish to have a party for me. But since they can’t just have a party for no reason, they’ve decided it should be in honor of my birthday. But since I’ll be in Miami on my actual birthday, it should be an early birthday celebration, and as if that weren’t enough, it should also be a going away party, since I am indeed going away.
So you, my friends, are hereby invited to my big honkin’ birthday-and-going-away bash.
When: Wednesday, July 3, 2002, at 7 PM. Where: Mom’s house in Reston, VA. Directions will be emailed to party-goers.
Prezzies are not required, though will be happily accepted if you happen to bring, say, a check for $659 to cover the cost of the U-Haul truck.
I’ll be there, and on time this time. And I’ll have check in hand. Actually, since we’ll have the flippin truck loaded by then, I won’t have that check anymore after all, but you get my drift.
Wonderful, you make it the day that I’m planning on leaving for the mid west. Well if you’re still over at Wolf Trap I’ll have to stop by I need a NP stamp from there anyway. Enjoy your unbirthday and going away party.
It would appear that my Dad, step-mom, and grandma will be here that day - although they may have left that day in the morning. We would love to be there it, if at all possible.
Hmmm…let’s see…root canal…par-tay…painful dental treatment…ogling geobabe…having my molar hollowed out…having a riotous time with Dopers…suffering…hugging and smooching DoperBabes[sup]TM[/sup].
I’m not kidding, I’m scheduled for root canal that day.
Believe me, I’ll be missing this shindig big time. Oh, how I’m gonna miss it!
But I’ll be wishing good luck to you two wacky kids nonetheless.
You’re moving far away, geo and Bill! You better come back to NYC sometime, or I’m gonna be PO’d.
Not a prob, we had a visit tentatively scheduled for April, but something called St. Thomas came up. We will still do a (non-Fest) weekend in the City sometime in the next year.
If I weren’t heading down to the Jersey shore that night, I’d head even further down to join y’all. Instead, I’ll have a drink in your honor, and be thinking good thoughts your way. Get lots of pictures and have a good time all.
(Oh, and I’ll repay any hugs, kisses, whatevers that are given to the birthday girl on my behalf)
You’re moving far away, geo and Bill!
