Alright guys, here it is: I'm turning 26 this year. Yikes. 26 is a scary age. You know what's not a scary age? 19. You know what I did when I was 19? I went to frat parties.

Alright guys, here it is: I'm turning 26 this year. Yikes. 26 is a scary age. You know what's not a scary age? 19. You know what I did when I was 19? I went to frat parties.

So, I figured I'd throw a good 'ol fashioned frat party for my birthday. And in the grand tradition of frat parties not always being the best thought out theme-wise, we're going to be having a mish-mash of theme awesomeness.

FIRST AND FOREMOST, this is a toga party, a la the toga party in the movie Animal House. (Except don't get in a fight and destroy my house a la that movie. That'd be bad.) But DO wear a toga!

SECONDLY, in honor of many a frat party that Hadley and I actually went to at USC, this is going to be an "Around the World" party. Basically, at an around the world party, each different room is a different country, and each country has its own drink. Your goal, should you decide to be AWESOME (and you should) is to get your passport (which we'll provide you) stamped in each country. Only thing, since I live in an apartment and not a giant frat house, this is going to be an "Around the World Party: North American Edition." You can look forward to:

-Texas: Featuring Tito's and Texas beer, Texas music, and Texans
-USA: Featuring Cheap American beer and beer pong. Prize for the winners!
-Canada: Featuring Canadian whiskey and Wii hockey
-Mexico: Featuring margaritas, Mexican beer, and tacos. Maybe a pinata.
-Alaska: Featuring "moose juice" and a Sarah Palin surprise!
-Hawaii: Featuring stuff left over from last year's luau party

There will probably be other surprises as well. Basically it's going to be about the best party ever created in the history of the world, and far better than any "actual" frat party. So be there. And also cause it's my birthday and I love throwing crazy parties for you guys. See, I'm feeling better about 26 already!
