Children's birthday parties are the new weddings. Right? You know how giddy you get when you hit a wedding reception, with all the free booze and food you know you're about to be getting? That's what kiddie parties are now. And it's awesome. For one, I don't even know if I know anybody who'll be getting married anytime soon, so who knows when I'll be at another wedding. But all my friends are popping out kid after kid, which means birthday parties every coupla weeks!!! And unlike the lame ones when we were kids, the parents go all out for these things, making sure there's PLENTY of booze for the adults. I'm looking forward to the parties when the kids are older - while they're in the basement playing "7 Minutes in Heaven," the adults are swapping keys upstairs.
Plus, at this point, I like these parties better than adult ones anyway. Adult parties inevitably spin into angry late-night fights, embarrassing confessions, blah blah blah. Kiddie parties you show up at noon, drink your face off, and everybody's in a great mood cause how can you NOT be, what with all these kids flying around the room acting like midget lunatics? You have a beer, laugh at the collisions, it's great. There's an innocence that keeps everybody light and happy. Hell, I'm thinking about hitting the space next weekend where Big Bear had his party , see if there's another birthday party and make some new friends!

a stranger...showing up at kids parties? Be ready to answer to the police and it had better not be the lost uncle story.
