My baby turns 21 OT, possibly long (I haven't written it yet) andprobably boring
Yep, the last member of the nest turns 21 on Friday. The gang has
decided to get her as drunk as possible in my dining room. The booze is bought the pizza money is stashed and prezzies have already been given so that she will remember them. I'm supposed to take car keys, film, and cook a nice greasy breakfast for the party girl. Mandy was born on February 8,1987 at Fort Campbell Kentucky at the end of a wind storm that blew siding off of the newly re-sided duplex we were living in. Like all my births, we were between cars. The power went out and Rob knew that the birth was going to happen when I insisted on taking a shower in our cramped master bathroom with the power out and the door closed. I have a problem with tight spaces. Rob had pulled 24 hour duty the night before and had gotten less than six hours rest. Of course everything went fine so I'll spare you the gruesome hospital details. Now she is 21. On my 21st birthday, I went up to the bartender, ID in hand, for my free birthday drink. The bartender looked at me in disgust, said "I've been serving you for months, you aren't going to get a freebie off of me." and then suggested to one of my party that they take me out on the dance floor. Disco was playing and I don't do well with disco. I got drunk off my butt, was walked home and vaguely remember that I used a trash can for an intestinal relief mechanism (barf bucket) and crashed. So any 21st birthday memories of yourself, family, friends? Maybe one of the cats has a word or two about their owners' experiences? There I worked cats into here finally. Pam S. |

My 21st was hardly noticeable, my parents had said I could have a party at home BUT no more than 8 guests including me, had to be over by 11.30 at the very latest and they were staying! So I persuaded them to take me out instead and we went to one of those ghastly carvery type places and had a truly dire meal My friend Hilary's cousin had a worse one. His girlfriend decided to give him a special present in his bedroom so there they were when he heard noises downstairs and thought he had best investigate, So he strode out of the bedroomand to the top of the stairs at which point all the lights went on and he looked downstairs to see his entire family including his grandparents shouting "Surprise!" or well more...."Supr...." as he was standing there wearing nothing but a condom! Now that is what I would call a surprise party! (The one we did for my dad's 60th was worse through, mum managed to get him out of the house so we sneaked round and set up, mum then pulled the curtains shut over the French windows and the idea was she would get him to come and look and we's all be there glasses raised! so we're all standing out there, glasses loaded and at the ready and this is what we here "Come here, dear and have a look at what I saw through the French windows" then a few moments later, my dad "What are you talking about you stupid woman! The curtains are closed!" I wish I had had a camera ready for the look on this face when she did open the curtains) Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs |

We went out drinking on my 21st birthday with friends. We went to several different bars, it's a good thing it was dark because they were pretty seedy. I ended up sick as a dog, and had the distinct thought "I PAID MONEY to do this to myself??" (money wasn't that plentiful then, hey, it isn't now either)..... I don't think I ever went back to a bar or club more than a handful of times. I just didn't like it. That's a good thing. I know I have the alcholic gene already. Happy Birthday to Amanda! She is such a beauty, and so quick-witted and smart. Give her a hug for me. Sherry |

I figure it this way... I really think I will be able to spot a stroke or
heart attack if he has one, Lee Lesley wrote in message ...

Yes but, well never mind. The problem would be if that small an age
difference went the other way. Meaning you were the older. "Lesley" wrote in message ...
