E's surprise party is almost here!! And bit-by-bit, it's coming together - and I honestly think he has no clue...
Exhibit A - email to him setting it all up:
Exhibit B - (reproduction of) texts he's sent to two friends for above-mentioned barhopping:
I mean, I probably look like a bad wife in his eyes right now - doesn't even plan ANYTHING for his BIG 30th BIRTHDAY! MUA-HA-HAAA!!!
My Evil Plan's WORKING!!
His grandfather shares the same birthday - he's turning NINETY ONE this year!! - and the whole family is coming to our house for pizza, cake & coffee tomorrow night. So to further throw off E, I've got a number of gifts for him to open (if I'd skimped, he would guess I'm skimping for a REASON - i.e. some type of party)
And SIL's gift to him is dinner Saturday night at a great seafood restauraunt down the shore - hopefully he'll think that's the big plan I've been hiding! (Don't forget the Paranoid Husband!)
I just need to get to the store for some Dirty Thirty props - napkins, canes with horns, v.iagara.
It's gonna be epic.

MushyStoryAlert!
I went home at lunch and decided to sit out on the back deck in a bikini top for some sun (nice stand of trees blocks our neighbors from that faaah-bulous view...)
And there's nothing better than sweating plastic tumblers on a summer day...
As I was sitting there, a butterfly came and landed.
RIGHT on my Nook.
Right where I was reading.
I wish I had time to grab my camera, but it flitted to my watch for a second, and then fluttered off.
It was awesome.
I'll take the butterfly as a good sign for things to come!
ReplyDeleteAnd I think you've been throwing E off the scent perfectly! OMG I hope one of your friends records his face when you all surprise him! He's going to be SO effing happy and excited... and maybe a little scared because of the surprise teeheehee!
