Fly, Vegitate, Fly, Party

That was the basic rundown of my vacation over the last week. I flew out to see SLP on Thursday at the ungodly hour of 5am. I was kissing his face no later than 8:00am that morning, what a way to start the day. We drove the two hours to his house, I promptly changed into pj's and with only one or two exceptions that is exactly how I stayed ALL week. We watched movies, I read 3 books, had an amazing snausagefest (translation= snuggling). And in one of my boyfriends cutest moments to date, he coined a new phrase...Parasite Mode. What is this parasite mode you say? Well, its when he throws himself on me and wraps his legs and arms around me for a serious cuddle and I can't shake him. Not that I'd want to, but now he announces his impending attack. Enough of the cuddly grossness, I know you all get bored of it. Anywhoodle, before I knew it, it was Wednesday afternoon and time to head back home to spend my birthday with the fam. Leaving him sucked as per usual and it looks like I won't be seeing him for several months, sadtown. I'm sure we'll figure it out, we always do.

Me (sans makeup, just like he likes me) and SLP. He looks half asleep in the photos.

And now for the party...I had a pretty hectic couple of days prior to the party on Saturday and to say I was pooped would be an understatement. That night while getting ready I practically collapsed trying to get into my corset. No joke it took me 45 minutes to strap myself in. It was hard work. About half the people invited showed up and most of them dressed up so that was a definite plus because I must say the photos look amazing, everyone really put a lot of work into their costumes and I couldn't be happier. We partied like rockstars until 3 am, drank, danced, sang, ate. The only thing missing was SLP, but despite that I had a great time with some amazing friends. I figure the best way to explain the party would be in pics...there are a ton, don't say I didn't warn you (the rest are on Flickr, but seriously there are almost 400 of them so be warned)

In all my birthday glory

At one point I walked into the bedroom and this was going on...
I have no idea what to say about it but it was a good end to the night.
