Ohhh Getting Too Old...

To party like I'm still in college... but oh did I have fun! SLC was a blast. I now know why Kathy Griffin loves her gay men... they adore and worship you! I've never had so many compliments in one month let alone one night... with the added bonus of knowing there wasn't anything behind the compliment - no ulterior motives. Getting to visit with my buddy and meeting his partner were just added perks to the weekend. I'm so glad I went. Even if my 31 year old body has been staging a revolt ever since. Staying up until 4 a.m., while fun, may not have been exactly what I needed right now... especially since just a few days before the party I was traveling back and forth from Colorado. Anyway... here's me in my costume... I forgot my camera so I'm waiting for someone to post a full body shot on Facebook... it may still be a couple of days... for now here's the shot I snapped with the cell phone before heading upstairs to the party...

And to think I was going to buy some false eyelashes!

And here's the extra special tombstone that was made just for me... every guest had a special "stone" just for them... only this friend could get away with it...

Maybe next time he'll make the sign grammatically correct :) On a more grownup note, it was nice to get out and talk to adults again. The party had well over 100 people at any given time and they came from every varied walk of life. Carpenters to software developers. Attorneys to painters. Detectives to elementary school teachers. And those weren't the costumes it was the people in them.
