orchestral maneuvers in the dark

[phineasjones]

wow, i have a lot of trouble spelling the word maneuver. i want it to be more french. [eta: bwah! i looked it up and my instincts were at least as correct as OMD's. orchestral manoeuvres in the dark! d'oh.]

so. this morning i have decided to end my stress and indecision over my birthday party.

::ahem::

it will be an 80s prom. it will be at my house. it will be saturday, march 26 at 8 pm.

everyone is invited, and i expect you to dress! my proms (yes, plural, i went to 4!) were in the early 90s, so if i can figure out what one would wear to an 80s prom, so can you! watch some pretty in pink, make a trip to the local thrift store, get yourself a crimping iron (actually, i have one if you want to borrow it). i'm turning 30 in 80s style, friends, and i need your help.

if you're too far away to come, you can still dress up and send a picture. :)

if you are coming from outside western mass and need some lodging, let me know. i can offer rides to the boston area at an ungodly hour the next morning (thank you, easter sunday).

let's party!

::dorks out::

for the purposes of this announcement, i have borrowed mmm_cake's highly appropriate icon.

I will think happy birthday thoughts for you! I was hoping I might be able to do at least a drop-in, but we'll be tucked away in NY!

Is there maybe something I can write for you for your birthday, though?

wah! i'm sad i had to choose a day that you're away. we'll have to make some other fun plans soon.
