Happy Birthday, Elizabeth
Happy 29th, Elizabeth. Thanks for inviting me to the party on Friday — I had a blast. I hope the next year holds good things for you. Next party, I say we follow up on Azra’s invention of Truth or Karaoke with an actual round of the game. 
Party-night thank-yous, in alphabetical order:
Asrah — Anyone who can hold a coherent discussion of racial politics in film after six shots of Grey Goose deserves respect. Thanks for letting me crash at your place when I was a little too sauced to drive home. Sorry if I’m not spelling your name right. Corrected, thanks to her comment.
Dave — Thanks for being a great host, making tasty burgers, having a cool dog, and not caring where anyone smoked. You rock.
Teki — Thanks for the lift back to my car in the morning, and for interesting conversation until dawn. I still say I owe you a breakfast one of these days.
