The Communist Party

Ben's birthday was today and there was a big party at his apartment last night. The theme (having nothing to do with Ben) was "The Communist Party." People had the option to wear red, dress like a famous communist, or make up some creative costume. My favorite was the couple (Devon and Devon) that came as The Warsaw Pact. See the pics for details. There were headshots of famous communist dictators on the walls along with red balloons and a birthday cake with a hammer & sickle.

People got pretty drunk and a few even did kegstands, not including myself. I think it's kind of gross that everyone puts their mouth on the spigot thing. People didn't seem to want to leave even when the music was turned down. I eventually went to bed at 3:15 since I was exhausted with all the birthday planning. Ben came to bed at 4:30am.

We had a fun day today. We did the present opening in the morning, then I took Ben to brunch at a funky place in Harvard Square. We also drove up to this outdoor sculpture park and walked around. The leaves are beautiful! The views out here are so different from in Seattle. Usually Seattle wins out, but not this season.

I know this is a pretty boring entry but my brain is so fried this weekend and I still have homework to do. My roommate should be returning from a blind date any minute and I'm sure she'll have lots to say about it, so I best get back to my homework.
