Nathan's birthday party at the boathouse is on for tomorrow night. It will, of course, be a solemn affair, carried out with dignity and good taste.

A gigantic pony cake, booze, and a karaoke machine have been procured. The under 18's are to leave at 9:00pm.

See you tomorrow.

Hi!

Does this mean I have to move the furniture back into the boathouse?

Thanks! :)

Jane

Not all of it; having some extra floor space will probably work out well. But a couple of tables and a few chairs, please.

And by "dignity and good taste" you of course mean "complete and utter irreverence for the crotchety old merc"?

Pony cake? I'm afraid to ask, because I'm worried the answer will somehow relate to the term 'donkey show'.

Is someone putting Dom on a plane? If she's not coming, there better be plenty of pictures or she's likely to shoot someone. Like me if she finds out I was there and didn't obtain incriminating photography for her.

That is the exact translation.

It's nothing so exciting, I'm afraid. Left to my own devices, this was originally going to take place at an establishment with clowns and pony rides. I had to cancel the reservation, but they agreed to deliver the cake. Sadly, they couldn't make one big enough to both hold a herd of forty-three ponies and maintain structural integrity, but thirty-eight should do almost as well.

I am picking Dom up at the airport in...about five hours. Tomorrow should be long and interesting.

Oh my.

I... must find my camera.

I'll have a cake and card delivered, but I won't be coming. Take pictures for me?

Alcohol and karaoke? This can not end well. For me.

I'll be there though. Need any help with set up and shit? I've got nothing to do today.
