well dears
i must say this little blondacious bimbo
had the most fabulous birthday bash
shall i give you the details?
yes, yes, i think i shall
okay
first off
la cubana in her infinate wisdom
shipped me off to the soho grand hotel
to get me out of my apartment
and out of her hair for a couple days
then she met me for dinner the night before my birthday
and we had a huge surprise guest
ewainee
my long lost dear lovely bette midler look-alike and singalike pal
who flew in all the way from toronto to be with me
ewainneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
on the next day
the birthday...dum de dum dum
my best pal tralena
met me to take me shopping for an IPOD (hehhehe)
and then to a lovely lunch
at 3:30
i returned to the hotel for a nap
SNORE!!
then la cubana picked me up at 8:00
and we were supposed to go to my party dinner at some snooty
restaurant uptown
but she insisted we stop off and have one glass of champagne with ewainee
on the roof deck of my building
and then
you guessed it
SURPRISE!
a whole bunch of my pals were on the roof for a kicking party
not only did la cubana enlist my best boy toy pal miha ( miha-licious)
to do the catering which entailed tons of very fancy shmancy hors d'oeuvres
and a huge gorgeous cheese table
but she also hired via miha a bartender, waiters a chef and then
ay chiwawa (is that how you spell that?)
a five piece cuban band
and a DJ!!
and filled the roof with flowers, champagne, cosmopolitans every kind of booze ever invented and friends, friends friends
a giant waft of love
and smoked salmon!
tralena was there who had managed to button her lip and look bored when i said to her over lunch
you know id really rather just hang out with my pals on the roof
instead of going to some fancy shmancy place
my adopted parents jeff and alex were there (hi mom, hi dad)
my former college professor mary the marvelous (ooo la la)
my fabulous friends
anne marie and her hubby jamie (and a little one in the oven i hear), tai and her hubby anton (hey i have straight friends too!), carol and sandy(carol never left the dance floor not once, disco demon), elizabeth and a strange man who was hitting on her, ronny the ravishing, gus the great and my wild ham god daughter zora who got even for all my bad pickle jokes by giving me a jar of pickles for my birthday, my pal since the 7th grade!!! lauren, helen and her rocking cosmo, adeena with a mountain of brades that made her look like an exotic egyptian queen, hang on adeena is an exotic egyptian queen ...... tod….THE DUDE…(hey tod you are soo solid!) g-man and then a whole bunch of people left and a whole new slew of fabulous friends arrived Miha the majestic, Lizipoo the lovely and
even well after midnight when the catering staff went home and the food was broken down and the band packing up
ray, carinne and jules arrived and laura my all time favorite cupcake! woo hooo!
and at 2am! joanna, andrew richard and martina
and finally my beloved debbilah the opera star extraordinare dragged herself up the 6 flights of stars after singing somewhere two hours out of nyc
ahhh
at 3am
i told everyone
i love you all
now get the fuck out! ( i do have neighbors who sleep after all)
and somehow they were okay with that
hahahah
i only have two regrets dears
one that i did not know the chef had left the meatballs in my oven
and everyone at 2am wanted a meatball
i then proceeded to dream about them for two days only to discover them
fermenting in my oven last night
a las
i must have spanish meatballs sometime soon
my other regret
was that while i was in the middle of a toast to la cubana
who i saved for last after working my way around the room
roasting my pals who had evoked so much love for me in their toasts
they presented the birthday cake which cut me short in my "thank you la c " speech
and i think between my embarrassment about
being made a fuss over...
and the cake
and the well VERY rocky road la c and i have been on
i never really showed my full appreciation to her
so im kinda hoping she will read this post on my site
cause La C
you really did kick ass on this party!
also want to say that by the time you read this
i will be in a van with lizita
debbilah
and my two fat cats
enroute to Ptown!!
for a month of channeling my inner child
and hey
