for at least a month now

my birthday is in 12 days and I will be 32....the backwards of 23...more spookiness

everyone in the past year seems to have been planning their own parties...i haven't done that for myself in a while because we always end up off skiing or in vegas...i want to do something so i don't end up miserable like i did at the Wynn hotel and casino steakhouse like i did last year. luckily after the restaurant experience i "had a wonderful experience on ecstasy" (thanks beastie boys) and all was well that ended well...but i could have done without the steakhouse lapse into deep depression

there were so many goals i wanted to meet by 32 that just haven't happened, so rather than lament my incompleteness, i want to celebrate my future

but i have no idea what or how...my friends have pretty much whittled done to a select 5 or 6 in the state of arizona that almost never have matching schedules, my birthday is on a monday (march 10)...so i am thinking something really silly like mini-golf or bowling on the saturday night before, then maybe followed by dancing and drinking...i really need to dance. i haven't been to a club since armin van buuren at myst and i think that was in october

what do thirty-something year olds do for their birthdays anyhow? [info]spacekadette (well she isn't quite 30) had a fun poker tournament game night thing...Tanya did roller skating (31st bday), tara (not quite thirty) did a tempe marketplace gathering at some restaurant...i guess i want a mixture of mini-golf and dancing, but how will i muster up such an event in such short notice

anyone interested in helping me get out of my slump and celebrating the beginning of the rest of my life? and if you were to attend a birthday party what kinds of activities would make you more inclined to go than others? a house party or an outward location party? and anyone free the night of the 8th?

last time i tried to plan my own thing, not very many people showed up...so i guess rather than risk that and feel like crap...i'd like to go all out and get lots of people to show up...hell we could even start at my house then move on to other places, or just stay at my house...i really don't even know if it is worth it, because honestly i do feel like that since i have been such a hermit crab, no one respects me anymore...but who knows maybe friendships are resilient and maybe i am not a bad person after all

i don't sleep much anymore and mind you this post is coming at 4 in the morning when i am usually in my most pensive hour, but i want to have some fun damn it!

Mini-golf is fun, and if you choose a place like Fiddlestix there are other things for people to do as well.

March 8th is the night of 'Grave', which is a combo rave/industrial show. Live bands like The Strand & Iconoclast w/ Djs Mike Saga, etc.

I'm not suggesting that for your bday party, but I was already planning on doing that myself. Whatever you choose, though, i'd like to help you celebrate, so if I need to split my time I definitely will. :-)

I find throwing yourself a party and telling everyone that it's your birthday always works better than saying nothing.

I like the bowling idea. :)

Personally speaking, afternoon/evening would be open on either Saturday or Sunday, but not night.

On the other hand, night on a Monday is wide open.

I could see either. Mini golf on Saturday could precede other activities (like dancing), or on a Monday could stand alone as a solid plan for the whole night.
