If you love someone...
Dear Internet,There are things which, in se, are merely droll or amusing but which, by virtue of affording your beloved no small amount of vexation, can become hilarious. Hold that thought.
I was traipsing ovah by the lovely and gracious Bec's blog to get the inside scoop on her 40th birthday suprise party, to which the equally lovely and gracious Shula had alerted the world. This led me to think back fondly on the same stunt I pulled on TFBIM last December. Which led me to think how much fun it'd be to do it again, same time and same place. In fact, I am curious as to how many times such hijinks might be managed.
So.
Now I just need a "fake" event to draw her in. At the moment, I am leaning to a faux Noel shindig. I also need to start gathering the goody bag, er, goodies.
More later.

A multi-zillionaire GF hosted her husband's surprise party at a local bowling alley. He thought she had lost her mind, but showed up, in working-attorney attire, and all. We all brought food. It may have been one of the funnest parties we've been to for both kids and adults. And if you aren't cooking - who would believe you were hosting a party?! And you cold really knock yourself out on the Goody Bags - go to the $2 store!
I have to admit to *hating* the surprise party though - I am a bit of a control freak, and do not like others traipsing around behind my back ;)
*LOve* the illustration - oh, that fireplace !
Feel free to curse the fate that has us living a plane ride away from each other. I know I do.
SG - That's what I was thinking.
H&B - Me too. But it seems I have a knack as a partygiver, so I don't mind doing the sneaking.

She might suspect it.
But she'll never think you're mad enought to actually do it two years running.
I wouldn't.
You realize the Perfesser might actually read this blog, don't you?

They don't call him the Prof for nothing.
Shame about the colour matching, RR, but I like the blue and cream very much, if that's what it is.
