Speaking of birthdays.....
Anyone who is around should scamper over to my house this Saturday the 5th because little Erin, our youngest baby roommate is going to be having a (21st) birthday party on that day. It's going to be jungle-themed, which will of course involve lots of foliage, fruit, flowers, fire, and...booze. Participation in the theme would be celebrated but is not required. My roommates and I will be animals. Maybe you could come as a flower or a tree. The possibilities are endless, really. There's a lot of stuff in jungles.
P.S. This party will also honor Mr. Matt Kowksi, whose b-day is on March 3rd (?) and Paul Steinhofel, whose falls on March 2nd. (Extra incentive to come and help these people along with their birthdaying!)
