Last night we went out to celebrate Shay's annual re-celebration of her 28th birthday. If you click on the photo above, you can check out some of the photos from the evening's festivities. We ate at Sala first. Natasha and I shared an appetizer platter that was pretty decent. Not impressive, but fairly priced I suppose. Shay faired much better with her Turkey and Mole dinner. Very tasty!

After dinner we headed downtown to the top floor of the Hilton, to partake in the cosmic lounge stylings of the Wickersham POV. It was.. well... lounge. Surrounded by terrible 80's cruise ship decor, we hung out, sipped coctails, and enjoyed each other's company. Casey and I geeked out and talked cameras most of the time. He got some awesome short movies of a particular patron who was expressing herself through insane dance moves. I wonder if she just saw Napoleon Dynamite?

As the night went deeper, the group grew larger and we found ourselves at 97 Astoria till last call. The drive home was uneventful (except for Natasha's moanings about desperately needing to pee). A decent friday night.
