The Infamous "Happy Birthday Dave, Kathy, and Tat and Almost-But-Not-Quite-Yet-Goodbye Shane" Party




I had a great time, guys, hope we can have another goodbye party before i actually do leave. =P
btw, since there are so many pictures, I couldn't easily display them all with captions, so if you hover your mouse over it for a sec it should give a caption that way.


Wes, waiting for the real party to happen Caitlin, free for the beginning of the night from what we like to call 'Aaron duty', smiles for a second with Aaron Jeff, enjoying his first PBR of the night Paco, keepin' it real with a baseball bat handy A well-stocked fridge The same fridge, still well-stocked Random picture of people at Zao's before the party Jeff and his precious box of PBR Me, hard at work making salsa and trying not to cut my fingers off Me, holding a BIG FUCKING KNIFE A quick round Paco says 'Que pasa?' after sucking down that shot like a real man This is Aaron sober. Note the slack-jawed expression and ruddy skin. Meanwhile, Caitlin is looking cute as usual. Apparently, Faye is the only observant one left at the party, even at this early hour. And we have way too many legs and not enough people in this picture. Me taking a break from salsa-making with my good buddies Kathy, Paco, and Faye Ghetto Renton-dweller Jameson and my roommate Aaron A dark picture of Faye, a very flushed Kathy, and a big, funny-looking half-Asian guy discussing the wonders of alcomahol Kathy, sipping daintily at her tequila Dave and Michael 'The Man' Byerly doing their 'sir' thing Jameson, Brady, and Aaron doing their own thing. Notice the lack of people around them. I guess they really know how to clear a room. Dave doing his 'Robert D. Erwin' impression Kathy, showing me how long her 'thing' is. An indecipherable drawing underneath a re-enactment of some sex-deprived 'Shane' character. What will they think of next? Dave being funny I really wish I could remember what he told me. Chrissie and me, being all cool-like For once in her life, Kathy seems to be at a loss for words. Yet another round of shots, probably Wes's third Definitely his third Paco, making sure not one drop of precious Skyy Citrus is wasted. Kampai!!! Single guys + Paco toasting to, um... something Kathy, along with Jameson and his friend Brady Michael is the man!! My fool of a roommate, with Caitlin looking on Aaron and Caitlin plus their 'son' Jeff Handy hint of the day: Table dancing requires balance. Faye, trying to calm Kathy down Kathy, after her table-dancing debut. Tat, newly arrived, shares his good Japanese beer with me Aaron, cradling his Mike's Hard Lemonade, throws an arm around his girlfriend, Caitlin, for support Apparently, sembe appeared from somewhere. I don't think I remember that. Paco and Wes, digging into the excellent salsa, which was completed by Caitlin and possibly other sober people following my 5th or 6th shot hmm, maybe this was my 5th or 6th shot, my memory begins to get fuzzy Chrissie and The Man The excellent salsa, this bowl with *lots* of cilantro and jalapeno If you look in the background, you can see the mild, boring salsa hiding. Michael and Chrissie with their tasty bottle of Henry's. 'Tis a shame its only cream soda. The Man Chrissie, cleverly hiding the incriminating non-alcoholic label A random representative section of the party-going population, surveyed for their smiles. Yes, that is my former next-door neighbor and former roommate. And yes, that is a lampshade on his head. Blackmail More blackmail Dave and Faye, chillin' with my special salsa Dave and Faye, busy being all cool and sober Caitlin on 'Aaron duty', being a good girlfriend and feeding him alcohol when his hands are too shaky to hold the bottle Wes hanging onto the couch for dear life, with a big, funny-looking half-Asian guy standing over him Aaron, officially drunk Aaron, wearing his usual vapid drunk expression, and me, grinning like an idiot Two guys, busy surviving in this crazy world Two crazy Chinese girls, after Kathy bum-rushed Loanny Me nursing a Pabst Blue Ribbon, apparently deeply involved in a highly philosophical discussion Relatively new arrivals Yvonne and Loanny Faye and Paco watching Tat play NCAA football Tat, busily kicking Jameson's ass in said game Jameson, representing Us playing 13!! After this point I dont remember anything other than the card game Me, pimpin' it with arms around 4 cute girls Yvonne smiles prettily while I have some sort of goofy grin on my face Tat, trying to restrain a drunk and rambunctious Kathy A better pic of Tat and Kathy Caitlin and Aaron Caitlin smiles at the camera while aaron determinedly makes his way to the fridge for another bitch beer Paco, happily passed out on the couch Whoa, two Chinese girls again! Can you guess which one's sober and which one's drunk? Jeff's sexy bod, during a late-nite trip to Gasworks Park An almost indistinguishable black cat at Gasworks Yvonne and I, at Gasworks Loanny and Jeff, at Gasworks Paco, still passed out at 4:30, using *MY* blanket
