Squeeze the handle, blow out the candle...

So I'm out of racist food pics for the time being. Instead I've got a slate of sexually suggestive food pics on tap. The current crop came from a candy store up in Sausalito - besides the obvious taffy jokes, there were plenty of unintentionally gay-themed candies. I'll be using them to spice up posts for the foreseeable future. The one to the right, duh! LEFT reminds of what I really want for my birthday..

So I've got a belated birthday party on the schedule for Saturday. Times were that I used to throw themed parties but this year all I've managed to do is send out the Evites and buy hamburgers and hot dogs from Costco. Still, seeing as it'll be the first party FB and I have thrown as roommates, so the pressure is on. We could have our gay cards suspended or our toaster oven taken away! For his part, the roomie is insisting on a floor show. Personally, I'm leaning toward a school cafeteria theme. I've got all of the cheesy food serving stuff from the Target dollar aisle.

One of my favorite parties past was the Under the Sea - I think it was for my 25th. We draped blue streamers from the ceiling and bought cheesy fish decorations and served seafood. My heart of course was most into the superhero bowling party I threw a couple of years before that. I was Clark Kent with the Superman shirt peeking out (years before Brandon Routh stole the idea). For the cafeteria theme, I just need a hairnet, an ugly mole and a bad attitude to properly play the part of Disgruntled Lunchlady. But uncharacteristically, I'm not in the mood for costumes.

My point? The bar* has been set and I've got standards to live up to. Thank God almost none of the people I used to hang around with are still around. At least I can repeat a few ideas without anyone knowing. And all suggestions are welcome. Anyone?

*which reminds me - I need to get the place stocked for the drinking games and such...

You mean people actually eat at these parties?
