6:47 p.m. - March 28, 2002 It was special at work, though, as special as it could have been with four people and four cakes, and very swollen stomachs. Everyone brought me food for my birthday, and a chocolate cake with candles and a key lime pie and cookies and cookies and more cookies, Camille-baked and Paul-baked. Lorrie had candles, so we had a party in the storage room. They were trick candles, so we almost set the place on fire with the sparks. It would have been a brass inferno, key pads and mouthpieces flying. Eventually she just dropped them in a glass of water. Three brass players, a saxophonist, a violinist, and my mother, the guitarist, couldn't blow them out. So I feel loved, I guess. I found a prom dress I liked, but it didn't come in a big enough size. Such is the story of my life. Pants-turned-highwaters, minidress-turned-tank tops. My body is simply too long for its own good. I watched a Clockwork Orange again. It was better the first time. Might anyone know where I could find exhilaration, cheap?
