March 8, Heather's Birthday!
or "The Party's Still Jumpin' Cause My Momma Ain't Home"

On this day 26 years ago, H was born and tonight we will celebrate this event in Grand Style! Heather, being the sweet woman that she is, makes friends everywhere she goes, but it is seldom that those groups have the chance to cross-polinate. There are the kids from her high school, the ones from college, the ones from her graduate program and now the ones from work. After a year and a half of traipsing across the NE coast, I've finally grown comfortable hanging out with the diverse groups.

But who do you invite to her b-day party? Hell, you invite them all!

Fortunately, I am not adverse to stealing her little black book and cold calling every name I recognize. So we'll have folks coming in from multiple states tonight, and chances are we'll all be in multiple states before the evening is done.

It is always so much fun to do something fun for the one you love. What a great axiom of life.

So whoever you are, wherever you are, raise a toast tonight, 7 p.m. EST, and we'll return it. To life!
