None of the pictures I took last night look great. I'm posting them anyway, but better ones will come from Tori & Amy's cameras. 
This WAS my tiramisu...
Mel & I
That woman in pink certainly enjoyed herself.
More pictures are at my Picasa account. As soon as everyone else uploads their's, I'll add more.

I'm a crappy photographer
I look super foxy today
I haven't done much shopping the past four or five months because of the money situation, but with the cash that my parents forked over for my aforementioned birfday, a $120 dress recently came into my possession for a mere $22. It's poop-brown, adorable and I'm wearing it now. Spending disgusting gobs of cash on a piece of fabric is for suckers; you do not go shopping with me unless you mean it.
In addition I finally bought a pair of jeans that genuinely fit me (...at least I hope). The last two I purchased are great as soon as I get them from the dryer... then they expand. The crotch hangs halfway down to my knees, the butt sags and I look just generally dumpy. I've been stubborn, refusing to go down a size simply on principle. I swallowed my tongue when I bought a dress from the Limited that was a size 0; Target's current smallest size (2) is too big for my waste... but I absolutely can not swallow the idea that I fit into a size 1 jean. It's just not possible.
I could name you at least half a dozen other girls (my age) that have smaller hips, tinier butts and thinner arms... so if I have this much trouble, where in God's name do they shop? Yeah, I've lost 30 pounds and I'm a heckuva lot lighter than I was this time last year but I am not a stick. I promise you, I can still grab a nice handful of fat on my thighs.
Still, I'm running out of clothes that fit (well) and getting sick of feeling frumpy and dowdy in the ones that don't. So I broke down and bought a pair of low-rise, stretch skinny jeans... in a size 1*.
And in "News Less Likely To Cause Hissy Fits," I have 13 people confirmed for tonight and three more waiting in queue. I've always been atrocious at organizing group get-togethers, so the fact that this one seems to be going alright excites me greatly.
I'm all a-tingle. But that could be the migraine medication.
* - and I SWEAR that if anyone leaves a comment whining about how they don't want to hear the "skinny bitch" complain, I will punch SOMEONE in the throat.
Birfday Sellabrashun!
I'm ridiculously excited that so many people are going to make it to mah shindig! We have a party of 14 at Bobby's, my favorite restaurant. Afterwards several of us will be going to Devil's Martini for a little unyen shakin'.
I have new jeans to wear and another year under my belt to celebrate.
Photographic evidence of the debauchery to follow soon.
"You're 26!"
Happy Birthday!
...your mom's in the hospital.
(She's fine, but seriously... thanks for making me crap my pants, God.)
13 days; start saving now
It's my birfday soon!
The only thing I want is a new journal. I'm very close to finishing mine (it only took me eight months this time).
... I will also accept cash.
