urbpan | A most joyous Lughnasadh, and Chuck D's Birthday yesterday

Thank you so much, to all my friends, for a fun birthday celebration.
Big special thanks to

cottonmanifesto for, you know, everything, and

belen1974 for being the best friend a couple and their dogs could have. I'm totally gonna rock that standard transmission tomorrow.

Sorry to

messy_wreck and joey from somerville for confusing you, but I hope you had a nice time at that other bar. Too many bars named for Irish literary figures in this town.

Thanks to Olesh for bringing the traditional gifts of exotic foreign herbal drugs and explosives. It was nice to meet Eva as an adult, and I consider it a great highlight that Ania walked the balloons into the ceiling fan.

Thanks to Naomi (and Happy Birthday!!) and Scott for the late evening deep thoughts and to everybody I left out--Christian, Allie, Wing-C, whoever else I forgot.

Birthdays are the best holidays!
