25 July: It's My Party
Four different kinds of gourmet Macaroni and Cheese. Stacks upon stacks of different finger sandwiches, with the yards worth of crusts used to make a couple of heated trays of bread pudding. A pineapple-banana-pecan cake possibly bigger than the birthday girl herself. A small table of vegan stuff, just in case.

Cindy couldn't stop grinning at it. Had she found awesome caterers or what?

The band specialized in swing covers of hard rock songs, but could play just about anything. There was a dance floor. All her friends from school were there, dressed to the eights.

Of course, all Cindy's friends from school didn't really fill up the little reception hall. And she certainly didn't have a big family. But that was okay, more room for her ~~soon-to-be-colleagues~~ fellow super-brats.

And so she scurried, from arrival to arrival, for cheerful welcomes.

	"Iris!" At Iris's carrying a bunch of uneven things instead of envelopes and has to take a peek. "Omigosh, that's awesome! Ah, Joshua, you god of well-intentioned underhanded dealings, you," she sighs. "Iris, I have got to get you your party favor in a minute, but first, how's it going?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good!" Iris pushed over what she was carrying to wrap Cindy in a hug. "I'm glad you like it! How's it feel to be Sweet Sixteen?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Fantastic. I can go get a driver's license, I can have a doctor's appointment without telling my mom -- I don't need to, I'm just saying I could -- and my parents' moratorium on exploring costumed adventuring options expires today." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"My mom seems to be putting off signing me up for driver's ed, I've noticed..." Iris squealed. "That's awesome! Are you going to join a team?" Her face lit up, "OMIGOSH YOU SHOULD TOTALLY JOIN THE TITANS!!!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The Titans are awesome, but I've got to put a lot of thought into how I go about this if I want to get taken seriously. Can't seem like I'm just rushing into it. I need a coordinated strategy. Gotta cement a reputation as a planner from the get go to make up for not looking as good in spandex as the rest of you." Cindy grins. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I didn't mean you don't get taken seriously as a whole; I'm just trying to plan extra carefully, 'cause let's face it; planning's one of my main assets. You've got a lot of new people to deal with already."

Cindy turns. "But, anyway, I have to show you your party favor!" And she turns back having snatched up the rolled up paper. It unfurls into an autographed poster of the cast of Ugly Betty. "Great minds...."

	"Right. Planning. Oh yeah, you've got to plan." This coming from the girl that leaped into almost everything headfirst. Iris squealed when she saw the poster. "Think alike!" She wrapped Cindy in another hug, "Thank you!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	littleladylord 2010-07-16 01:23 am UTC (link)
	And Cindy hugged right back. "Thank you!" "And you have got to try the macaroni and asiago. It's delicious. And the roast beef." (Reply to this)(Parent)
