Day 1054 of 365 Again.
posted to my blog for the first time in months tonight.
The context is just as relevant here, so I’m just gonna cut and paste:

It’s that time again.
Jammy Jam is nigh. Well, pretty nigh anyway. My birthday is August 1st, and since that’s a Saturday, I figure that I should actually have Jammy Jam on that day this year.
The problem is I haven’t been planning it. Like at all. In the last several years, it’s been a huge party. Bands, beer pong, prizes, costume contests, kissing contests, stripper poles, clothing optional hottubing. It’s been nuts but it’s been a lot of fun.
In the past I’ve always planned it as best I could but also flown by the seat of my pants a little. That has it’s good points and it’s bad. But this year I haven’t really been talking to anyone about it, at least not until yesterday when I talked to a few people about it. I don’t know who’s planning on coming. I don’t know if people are coming in from out of town. I don’t have any bands lined up. I haven’t bought prizes or even planned my outfits. There is so much to do.
Don’t get me wrong. I love it. I just don’t want to go through the trouble if no one cares. (I really hope you do)
So now I’m trying to decide what I should do for my birthday. Should I go all out like the last couple years and have bands and such? Should I get karaoke? Should I go lower key like my other parties and just do prizes? Should I dump the jammies and lingerie aspect altogether and just throw a big naked orgy? Should I become all grown up and sophisitcated and have some sort of tea and crumpet soiree of some sort. Or maybe wine and cheese?
Who’s interested in coming? Does anyone have a band that would be interested in playing in my basement for free beer? Anyone have good prize suggestions. Let me know.
