"Candy's" Birthday Bash

As many of you already know, Candy celebrated her 40th birthday over at 1762 last night. While I wasn't there to partake in the festivities I did have an opportunity to speak with revelers who filled me in with some details.

As is appropriate for any 1762 celebration, Shelley was "manning" the helm. The Owner was also in attendance, being his usual boisterous and ownerly self.

The birthday girl was lavished with gifts that included a stunning bouquet of roses, 11 pure white, and 1 romantic red. Candy also received, well, candy in the form of some gourmet chocolate, teas, and other treats befitting of a sweet young lady. Also included in the gifts was a special bottle, a bottle of single barrel J.D. Mmm!
Apparently the showering of gifts moved the birthday to tears, "feeling the love", if you will from head-to-toe!

The Pirate, who deals in bootleg movies, was there early along as was the day tour 'tender. Doc was also in attendance with his nephew.

Candy seemed somewhat distracted from her dart game, apparently overcome by the outpouring of generosity. As it should be expected, Candy benefited from backups purchased for her by the 1762'ers.

In the midst of the party the jukebox went down for a brief time, and surprisingly, the Owner actually fixed it! The Owner also had to play plumber when the ladies room toilet overflowed. Pretty handy, just not with air conditioning!

RJ and The Pirate made an Oreo with Zu' filling, apparently enjoying it and shouting, "OREO HAPPENING HERE." Zu' was herself, flirty all night.

Others in attendance included Jon, Pregnant Lily, Gin, Ka'tee without Ka'cee,and Filsy, who is working on a new Halloween flyer because IT WILL ALSO BE KARAOKE NIGHT!

Candy was getting expressions of love and thanks from everyone, her birthday cake was a tray of cupcakes with candles in it. Candy was beside herself happy and just didn't know what to feel about being the object of so much obvious affection. The owner cut out around 1 AM. RJ and Candy closed the place.
