so i pushed open the door, & there they were ~ all my sneaky friends just standing right there wearing matching freaky masks & black outfits! i was so excited to see everyone in my infamous annual “cat burglar halloween” costume, that i couldnt even bee mad about. i think i might have come to dianne’s home early or something, because they all looked really surprised to see me. so much so, that two of the guys up & dropped the tv they were carrying out the back door {to make more room for the dance floor} & tried to run away out of sight before i saw them.

everyone else new the jig was up, though & started screaming & hollering @ the sight of me. it must have been their first surprise party, though, because they didnt yell, “surprise!” or “happy birthday!” or anything like that. instead, they mostly yelled things like, “get down on the ground,” “put your hands up,” & “dont you fucking move!” it was a little disorganized, but i didnt care. i just obeyed their dance moves & screamed my little head off w/ excitement.

anyway, it was all water under the bridge & a second later, all my friends pulled out a bunch of knives & pointed them @ me ~ which meant it was time to cut the cake. they told me to open my mouth & close my eyes {so i could get a big surprise}. naturally, there i was expecting them to give me a big mouthful of chocolate cake, but instead they decided to bee funny & shove a big, dirty sock in there instead. sillies!

i had to admit, that was a pretty good practical joke. especially when they used duct tape to keep that filthy old sock from falling out of my mouth. mahn, did that just take me back to our jis days!

a little while later, after the big reveal, i came out to see all my birthday presents piled up on the kitchen table. thankfully, the guys know my stance on wrapping paper & how it is creates needless waste. so the presents werent wrapped or anything. i just ran over there & started picking up all my cool new guns & walkie talkies before the guys even had a chance to see i was done w/ their knot challenge. then my buddy came in & got really freaked out that i didnt wait for everyone else before diving into the pile of presents.

i was just excited, thats all. i’ll upload the snapshots of the evening later.
