...to celebrate Vin's birthday! Ninja is a theme restaurant and when you walking in the entrance, all you find is a 5' x 5' room with a hostess and two big, stainless-steel elevator doors. The hostess gets your name, quietly whispers something into a walkie-talkie, and the elevator opens. It takes you down one floor and then you're led to your table (by a ninja!) through a dark, twisty passage where all sorts of other ninjas jump down off of platforms and pop out of trap doors and scare the shit out of you. Here's Vin waiting for the elevator to open!
This picture was taken on March 4th after midnight which means that it was technically taken on MEREDITH'S BIRTHDAY!!! WOOOOO! Happy 26th Birthday, Gorgeous! I love you! She didn't really feel up to going out on a Saturday night (the Lower East Side on a Saturday night = Guido Nightmare), so we had a nice, quiet birthday celebration in her apartment.
After the birthday cake had been sliced up, passed around and eaten, Siege brought out the special "King Cake" that his mom sends up from New Orleans every year! A "King Cake" has a little plastic baby baked into it and if you end up getting the piece of cake that contains said baby, YOU ARE THE KING! In this case, the Kingship entitled you to VIP treatment at the stripclub the party was soon moving on to!
...Dodgeball.com t-shirt! Dennis to Josh: "Happy Birthday...now help promote my company!" (Actually, I'm only teasing Dennis! The dodgeball shirt was relevant because after we graduated college and we all got booted off Syracuse University's web servers, Dennis bought the dodgeball.com domain as a place for the three of us to move our personal sites to! They were hosted there for a year or two until Dennis wanted to use to domain for a "city guide" project he was working on in 2000. So that's when Dennis moved his personal site to TeenDrama.com and I bought the I Keep a Diary domain!)
...The "Happy Birthday Katie Sparkler Celebration!" Which is where all the girls at the party waved their sparklers around, danced, wished Katie a happy birthday and made lots of "WOOOOOOOO!" sounds.
On Thursday, a whole bunch of us took Sarah out to dinner at Kate's Joint to celebrate her birthday! Here she is showing off a glow in the dark coffee cup and some sort of kissing flamingos decoration (which had to have been gifts from Meredith).
