So, my multiple week twenty-first birthday EXTRAVAGANZA is about to begin. You lot being the curious type, and me being cryptic, you probably want to know how you can get into some mad partying with me, or at least know what I'm doing.

The extravaganza starts on the 27th, which is the day before my birthday, and which I intend to spend on a bus. WOO FUCK YEAH A BUS WOO! Basically unless you intend to come find me for the half hour between transferring from one bolt bus to the next in NYC (from like...1:45 to 2:00 PM) you don't get to hang out with me that day. Except online. I will quite plausibly be online and receptive to slightly early people-telling-me-how-awesome-I-am.

The twenty-eight is my actual birthday. WOO!!! I will be doing secret things for all of it that aren't any of your business, but promise to be entertaining. And have nothing to do with boozahol.

The twenty-ninth is also being spent on a bus. 21st birthdays are all about busses, let me tell you. And I'm pretty sure Bolt would get pissed at me if I tried to bring aboard some boozahol, so I'm skipping it this day too.

The thirtieth is a Monday, and I intend to have a BIG ASS LATE AT NIGHT PARTY! Or at least, I intend to invite everyone in Maryland to come hang out at the Park on the Left (directions will be posted from the Empty City) where we will play Blind Tag and Capture the Flag and Flashlight Tag, and perhaps have some dancing, and maybe if I am really super lucky, eat cake. I intend to have no booze whatsoever at this one either, mostly because seriously, I just had major recovery to minor surgery and I have *no* interest in boozing it up, but this one is open invite to people who are cool, so I don't really have much control over them.

The thirty-first is a Tuesday, and Veronica's twenty-first birthday. If I can, I may very well drive to her college and be like "SUP V!" and give her a hug. I also may not depending on whether she's got school or plans or stuff. The time spent at home will be spent frantically packing and probably freaking out, a lot. This is because...

The first is Wednesday, and it and the second will be spent driving frantically down to Atlanta, because the second through sixth or something is DRAGON*CON WOOOOO and that is just a code word for MY REALLY FUCKING HUGE BIRTHDAY PARTY THAT EVERYONE IS INVITED TO!

(Note: D*C is not actually my birthday party, if it were, there would not be creepy people. Yes, I can state without even having attended one that there are creepy people at D*C, I am very smart in the ways of humanity like that. However, my mother -my very own mother!- has missed like six of my birthdays in order to go to D*C, so I figure the con owes me one.)

Also, I really don't intend to drink at D*C, because holyshit, giant con is already going to mess with my head and insecurities enough with*out* me being drunk, and I really want to know where everything important is before I start boozing it up, and that'll probably take at least six or seven years. And see also, creepy people.

Immediately post D*C is hanging out in Atlanta for a couple days with Sparr, which will involve sleeping a lot (if I'm lucky) and doing interesting things.

And then the eighth I will be in Boston, and I will be frantically sorting out school and getting a zipcar membership (SO EXCITED YOU GUYS!) and getting all my stuff from places to my dorm and freaking Ria out and freaking out with Ria AND THEN THERE WILL BE BOSTON PARTIES!

And some of those Boston parties will plausibly have booze whether I want them to or not, because some of my friends are indeed college students and I believe I have been threatened with going out and getting "a pitcher of mojitos" which sounds like a terrible idea, but then again, I am currently really unimpressed with chemical alteration, due to it making me not eat for three days. So all booze sounds like a terrible idea.

So that's me. YAY BIRTHDAY EXTRAVAGANZA I AM EXCITED YOU GUYS!

(And no one ever has to get me anything even resembling a present EVER; I don't care if you have been dating me for years or intend to marry me or are my best friend forever, I am shit at presents, and therefore really don't mind if you are to, BUT, that being said, Dan4th was complaining about how my current present list is out of date, which is about as much incentive as I need to post a newer one. But first I nap. Whee!)

MOOP!

Hmm... get the ZipCar membership processing as soon as you can. They take their sweet time (weeks, sometimes) in getting the card to you.

I case you need it, or want it, there's something you can get for free at Dragon*Con this year: a pertussis booster vaccine!

That's damn awesome. Is it just pertussis or Tdap?

Speaking of which, I prolly need one next time I see a PCP....

I also don't think it's too early to

Also there seems to be a strict correlation between drinking->drunk in this entry; any reason? I certainly drink, and enjoy it, but I never have been more than very slightly tipsy, and generally never have more than one or two in an evening. Is there any reason why you can't enjoy a non-intoxicating quantity of alcohol?

Love,
Herbert.

Also, a pitcher of mojitos? The mojito is one of my favorite drinks, so I am offended1 by the implication that it could be a pitcher drink. Mojitos should be made by the glass. If you're going to do pitcher drinks go for Sangria. Also no fewer than four people drinking per pitcher if you don't want to regret it.

Related to previous comment, what is your alcohol tolerance like?

Love,
Herbert

It might be sangrias, I don't remember.

Oddly, being someone who has drunk maybe a half gallon of boozahol in her entire lifetime to date, and never more than a serving (usually considerably less) at a time, I don't know what my alcohol tolerance is like. I'd like to keep it that way.

I suspect it's just pertussis, but I don't know for sure.. It's being sponsored by the The Skepchicks.

As for drinking->drunk, there's a tradition in the US to get drunk on the day it becomes legal to drink. In theory, it shouldn't take much drinking to so do since you will, theoretically, have no tolerance. In practice, I suspect that folks who are inclined to drink to drunk will probably have already developed a tolerance, and those who aren't so inclined probably skip the tradition.

Happy birthday!!

1. I promised to send you a card, but I haven't actually done it yet >_>
2. Where should I send it?
3. I started drinking at 8 XD No, really, my parents tried to get me to drink some watered wine and I was like "OMzgBLEAH". They spent the intervening time between 8 and 18 doing the same thing, meanwhile I've been able to drink for two years and still haven't gotten round to drinking. Because I still hate it. Bleh. THEY RUINED FOR STUDENT LIFE D:

First off, I like how my 21st makes an appearance on this list.
Second, the only plans I have (which are still in the making)would be to go out to dinner with peoples which if you were here would be amazing.

Third of all, if you came up I would even have a bed thing you could spend the night in if needed.

Lastly, I miss you!

You have my recent unemployment to thank for me not being in Boston with you the second weekend in September. If I was one paycheck farther ahead, I'd be there in a heartbeat (and three hours).

If I forget in the next two days, Happy Birthday!

Aw, no time in NYC (except for 15 minutes changing busses, I mean)? Still, sounds like fun!

Only, I have no cause to complain at all, because, well, I'll be at Dragoncon. See you there!
