The 21st of February is my 51st birthday. With everything that's been going, hell *is* going on, I'm not sure I'll be interested in celebrating, but
loracs asked me what I wanted to do. It occurred to me, I have no idea. I thought it might be fun to ask you all. What should I do for my birthday?
I'm not much of a party person. I love music, theater, movies, books, food etc. So, is there anything fun, new, different happening on my birthday that I might enjoy? I figure, even if I don't celebrate this year. I should end up with a list of stuff to try, see, visit, any ideas?

Date: 2009-02-19 05:06 am (UTC)There were 2 things that I wanted to do for my birthday but we were too broke: go see Ka and pig out at my favorite sushi restaurant. We may yet get to do these and the actual day isn't important--I usually avoid restaurants on that day.
What haven't you done that you want to do?

Date: 2009-02-19 08:44 pm (UTC)I'd love to go to another country for my birthday or have orgy in my honor (joking, I'm almost certain that the orgy in my head would be much less humiliating and embarrassing than the real thing). :-)
I wouldn't mind going to New Orleans again. Anyway, I mostly started this as a conversation starter.

Why don't you bring New Orleans to you? Meet in a place that reminds you of NOLA and enhance it with friends bringing food/clothing/music/whatever.

Alexei and I recently saw a terrific play at the San Jose Rep (A Picasso), which is running until the 22nd, but I'm guessing that's a bit far. If anything else comes to mind, though, I will certainly holler.

Date: 2009-02-19 08:37 pm (UTC)I probably should have been clearer that I'm not really up for celebrating right now. I guess I thought if someone came up with something exactly my kind of thing at exactly the right place and time for my convenience I may have gone. It may be better to postpone things until at least the majority of my family is feeling well. I also thought it might be fun to find out what people think I would enjoy just out of curiosity.

Go to a museum you haven't been to before.
