I'm older than I've ever been, and now I'm even older.

So, I'm 24 now. So. Old. (depending on who you ask)
Pretty much, there is no better way that I could have celebrated my birthday. I had a bunch of friends come over for a potluck style dinner. The most important requirement was that they wear a moustache. We had dinner at my place, hung out for a while, then went out to one of the bars around here.

We made it our goal that night to draw as many moustaches as possible on other people at the bar.
Among all of us, I think we scored an 8.5--- 4 moustaches (1 point each), one moustache drawn on a finger (.5 points), and 2 unibrows (2 points each).

They may all have hated themselves in the morning when they found out that the marker wasn't exactly easy to wash off. (We were equally surprised, if that's any consolation.)

And now, a few photos, to give you some small clue about how much fun we really did have.

haha, in Picaro

some of our willing participants

The next day (my actual birthday) was spent eating all of the leftovers, drinking wine by the river, and working on our tans. I love this life.

I must say, 23 was a pretty great year for me. Here's to hoping that 24 is just as full of friends, adventures, and happy days. Thanks to everybody who made my 23rd year a great one!

So the pregunta on my mind is WHERE did you get this fabulous idea for a bigote fiesta?

There was really no reason for it. It's just that theme parties are always more fun! And, I've always loved bigotes!:)
