Happy 40th!

So, this weekend I went over to some friends' house. It was my Brazilian buddy's 40th birthday, so he had a "surprise" party. He was under the impression that it was a housewarming party, but his wife told everyone that they would actually be celebrating his birthday. And it would have been a surprise, too, had their three year old daughter not told daddy all about his birthday cake. It was a great time, or at least it looked like a great time. I spent most of my evening keeping an eye on my 18 month old. But he seemed to be enjoying himself, which is good enough for me. The added bonus came when it was time for "Guesstures" and I couldn't participate because I was upstairs watching the boy. Outstanding, since I hate party games. I'm just not social enough, I guess. I did watch a bit of it from the upstairs, and it looked like everyone else had fun. By about 20 minutes into it, most of the Japanese guests had also found their way upstairs. All in all, it was a great evening, and I didn't even drink any Scotch.
