Happy Birthday docorion!

Happy birthday to the best docorion ever! You are a wonderful, trusted and admired friend, and you’ve been an amazing housemate. My life is immensely richer for your presence in it, and I know I’m not alone in that. May they all be wonderful days, today and all the rest.

Birthday dinner, Friday the 25th

So, I turn 40 on Saturday the 26th. I’d been meaning to do some big hedonistic thing with Rocks (male Rockettes) jumping out of a cake or something to celebrate, but it’s already the middle of August, so I’m going to fall back on the ever-popular

Birthday dinner at Addis Red Sea

on Friday the 25th. Dinner will be at 7:30. Wanna join me? If you’re on this filter I’d love to see you there!

Please RSVP here or by email. I’ll make a reservation probably the preceeding Wednesday.

(If you want outdated but more intimate information about what Addis is like, check out http://www.aq.org/~js/­places/­boston/addis/.)

PS — Until I was 30, I had hair past my waist. I am considering shaving my head bald for my 40th (and then growing it out again, maybe long, or maybe just fuzzy if the summers are too bad). No promises, but I thought I’d warn you.
