It's past midnight at your house, so ... Happy birthday to my wonderful little sis! So glad I plucked you out of the Smallville carrot patch and adopted you!

Your real present is in the mail, but may I interest you in a little cake? And maybe a cola drink ... and a lemon lime?



Now, as for turning 22, it's not that bad. Remember, there's always 25 to (not) look forward to, in three years. And remember, I am always four years older than you, so when I am 55 and you are 51, you can come visit and I will let you use my Macy's senior discount.

See, that's the kind of big sis I am ... always seeing the silver lining. Uh huh.

TRIN!!!!!!





Have a wonderful day and get spoilt rotten.

*huge hugs*

Thinking of ya!

Happy Birthday, Trin!

Here's the official Superman-fan cake -- not as amazing looking as Jenn's, but... it's Superman!

ZOMG! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

My birthday present to you is NOT singing you Happy Birthday XD Trust me... your ears, they thank me.

Happy Birthday Trin!!!



Ann

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TRINITY!

Happy Birthday!

Wow, what a lovely thing to wake up to!

Thank you all so much. Your love makes this day just a little less painful for me, haha. *hugs everyone*

Thank you!

Hey Trin,

Happy Birthday!

Here's another contribution for your already extensive cake rack



And just because I'm concerned about your dental health, too, here's one more birthday present:

Uh, after what, four cakes, I think she may also need, to quote Chandler Bing, "Stretchy pants! Why, those are the greatest things in the world!"



(Proof that not everything that is pink is attractive.)

Happy Birthday Trin!!! What about this cake...



Ignore the Chris part... Hope your day is awesome!!!

Why did I just get an insane impulse to belt out "She works hard for the money" when I saw those pants?

*shakes head*

alcyone

Alcyone got me thinking ... we need to celebrate you properly, Trin. So ... we're going out tonight, drinks are on me. I picked us some outfits:

First and foremost, the birthday girl deserves a ribbon:


Me, of course:


Jessi and Lara (Superman blue for Lara, mais oui):


My twin also needs a pink dress! Rock on, Steph!


*Editor's note* Eva COMPLAINED about her dress, calling it the "most ugliestestest," as if the rest of them are going to get us mistaken for Victoria's Secret Angels, so I found her something a bit more va-voom.


Alycone could also wear this for her thesis presentation:

Hahahaha!!! Well, I guess we're going with an ... ugl- I mean 80's theme here. At least I don't have matching high tops. Buwaahaaahaa

See, look what you did--I need to be working, but I can't stop laughing.

I was thinking this is like perfect psycho prom attire. LOL. *Looks around for bucket of pig's blood* (Anyone seen Carrie/Jawbreaker?)

I saw the dress offered for working on my thesis and was about to comment on how this bad boy deserves something a bit more...titillating.

But I see it's for the presentation and yes, that dress is entirely appropriate to wear around my advisor. It looks like how I would feel presenting.



(too amused for this time of day)
alcyone

You know, I told Jenn the same thing ... I was definitely sensing a Carrie vibe in those dresses - and all their designs would actually profit from being adorned by big, large spatters of pig blood, I believe.

Ugly is the new black

Oh, and Trin, I wouldn't go for the pink ones, I'd go for the white granny pants; they worked for Bridget Jones:




Proof how much Hugh Grant likes them:

Mmmmm.

How long before this thread runs its course and images of Colin Firth start popping up to m--er--Trin's delight? (You...like..Colin..Firth *waves hands as if doing magic* Right, Trin? Right.)

...

Ask and you shall receive:

Oh wait, I read that wrong. My bad.

Happy Birthday, Trin!



wasn't sure which cake you would like for the pary and because we are so many people, here are 3 super birthday cakes:

btw where is my dress, Jenn?

Awww, Trin (I keep having to remind myself there is a purpose to this thread), you're so popular. Barb wants to come all the way from Austria for your birthday party!

Here you go, Babsipie:

Sure, I'll come, but don't you have another dress for me? I don't like dresses with dots...

She has to, she simply has to ... she *is* a woman, after all ...

And he's probably the best when it comes to leaning in (oooh! the sexiness) ... not a very good on-screen kisser, though (shame, that).

And, Trin, look who's also coming to your party:

oh Keanu is coming too?

Look who is singing for you, Trin:

Darn. And scrolling back, I was thinking we'd begun to move away from fugly and to warmer territories.

crushed.
alcyone (okay, okay I guess Dean and Keanu will have to do... )

I'm late to the party, but I wanted to wish you the happiest of birthdays.

Sue

OMG! Jenn, I can't believe you picked a dress for me that comes with *running shoes* -- that's like... a geek's dream come true!!

Of course, if you really wanted to make me happy, you'd get me one like this -- and then I would love you forever.



(seriously... how bad is it that I'm actually considering dishing out the 200$ they're asking for this dress? I could SO wear that in LA! ...no, I'm not kidding. And I don't *think* I'm running a fever... at least I hope I'm not? *giggles*)

Well, I want to join the party. And here is my contribution....



In honor of summer.


And I heard that Colin wanted to join the party, so here he is.

And finally, Happy Birthday, Trin!!!!
(P.S. Don't worry about turning 22, it's not so bad )

Jenn can I please have a dress? I want to look as perty as the rest of you

I hope you like public transportation.

And no, I don't mean this:



I mean this:



Oh, and just so I can properly stay on topic, I hired this car to pick Trin up for her party:

Daisymay you're my new hero.

And since I feel bad just mooching off the hotness I'll add in my own special invitee. I know you've liked Dexter, Trin, but I don't know if you share my view of MCH's slammin' bod:



You can't see it so well there, but if you've seen the series you know it's there. And hot.

alcyone

Here's one where you can see it pretty darn well. And yes... OMG. HOT!



(I'd probably argue that someone needs to invite Christian Bale, but... heh. it's not MY party, after all.)

Lara, WTF, are you suggesting as a birthday gift, we have Trin hacked up to the sound of Huey Lewis and the News?

/dies.

Really not. But this is probably the only man in existence whom I would agree with about Whitney Houston. ...I mean, I don't like her, but if *he* does, I'll be her biggest cheerleader. Cause... you know... axe, chainsaw and nail gun...

But see, I was thinking more along the lines of... well... you know... the guy in the black Kevlar suit? The one I'm likely to get beat up with pink purses if I mention his name again? ...him. Cause, dude... don't get me started on his awesomeness - we'd be here all week!

I would just LOVE to know how you'd feel if he had hacked him up to "My Heart Will Go On" by you-know-who.

And uh, Trin, since this is your thread, my heart will go on for you, just like the Titanic.

Holy crap! I can't believe I was gone all day and MISSED THIS!

This is the greatest. party. ever.

Before I add my two cents thought I have to share a tidbit of what really happened today.

THIS was my cake:


I went NUTS when I saw it. All of my favorite superheroes on one delicious cake. I must say though... the best part was the look on my fiance's face as I was licking the frosting off of the figurines. I just looked at him and said, "What? When else am I going to get to lick Batman in my life?" :p

Also, as my mother was instructing the girl in the grocery store on how to decorate it she said, "Oh, how old is your son?" And my mother goes, "Uh... she's 22." Snort.

SO! Can I just say my stomach hurts from laughing so hard after reading this thread?

Eva, my BFF! I LOVE that you posted penguins and invited Keanu. You know me tooooo well. :p

Steph- great cake! I LOVE family guy!

Jenn- Cute dress you picked out for me! And uh... thanks for the Scardino. I will, uh.... treasure it, always. I can't imagine who sent the pink limo... can I hold onto that for my wedding?

BARB! This IS going to be the hottest party ever! And, that is quite possibly the hottest picture I now have saved on my hard drive.

All these hot men for little ol' moi?! I love you guys.

alcyone- OMG I LOOOOVE Michael C. Hall. I lovelovelovehim.

I agree. I think Christian Bale needs to be invited because he was shirtless through most of American Psycho (one of my favorites) and because he made me love Batman. (Don't kill me Lara, but I wasn't a fan of his before Bale donned the suit.)

Thank you guys sooooo much! Your well wishes mean so much to me. Special kudos to my lovely pink big sis for starting this for me and helping me through my quarter-life crisis.

I couldn't have asked for a better birthday. *hugs everyone*

Your cake is awesome Trin! So glad you made it through your quarter-life birthday.

And just so Daisy's not left out of the pretty dresses... I had to post this one cause I love it. Even though it's not really 80's, it sure is ugly. Here you go Daisy.

I actually think it's very apropos of the fact that Pride was this weekend. You know, if you feel inspired to support.



alcyone

I missed this! How did I miss this!?

Happy belated birthday, Trinity! Brilliant cake!



Glad you had a good time - you deserve it!

LabRat

wow, the cake looks awesome! Hope you had a great day!
