Saturday night Ziggy,
Sunday I had my own birthday party at Gerard's house. I wanted a smaller-sized gathering for concerns of space and it not being my house, so didn't invite everyone I knew. But it was great to have the company of close friends and partners. I way overdid shopping, having not hosted a party in many years, but the food and the Maggie Mudd's ice-cream cake seemed to go over well. Again much fun and many snuggles, and photos should be up tonight.
Regrettably, I had to pass up the chance to photograph a concert for a friend of Mike's, which started at 9:30; I knew that even if everyone left at the suggested end time of 8, with cleanup and recovery time I wouldn't make it. We did try to kick people out close to 9 though.
