It was recently my birthday. Usually I don't write about it as I don't consider it too big a deal. It's been some time since I've had a cake. In real life, maybe a little pizza with a few friends, either on the day or a weekend near it. Second Life is often where I have my fun on my birthday. Being at a dance party with friends, especially longtime friends and music, it's a happy time that I can look back on with a smile.
But this year, my wife Charlee decided to do a little something special for me. It started off with her updating my mesh bat avatar, which usually gets worn only this time of year and a few Best in Wings events. She would also update hers.
It was Thursday, and she had a set at the Happy Vixen.
We planned on heading to Scorn for the set of our friends DJ Juana and hostess Noc. But the venue was different this time, a "Bat Venue." And getting there, I had a surprise.
Charlee had gotten together with Scorn's owner, Gwen Winchester, and they decided to not just throw a birthday party, but since I loved Halloween and thought bats were a cool critter, they had a bat theme to it.

And there were some cool decorations.
People were soon dropping in, and in all kinds of costumes. There were plenty of bats, but also a naga.
DJ Scratch Musikat and his love Muertos, who is his hostess at his Happy Vixen sets on Friday, were there, him in a witch outfit.
We ended up with a couple mice, Zee and Brandi Steussel ... okay, a mouse and a dragonmouse.
Mato, the manager of Club Zero Gravity, showed up.
My friend Foxy came as a dark fennec.
Someone couldn't affoard a costume, so he came in a barrel.
Others showed up as well, including Gwen and her husband Atterius, and others I don't have the space to mention.
It was truly a great combination Halloween and birthday party (Charlee insists it was just a birthday party with a bat theme added). There were plenty of bat and vampire jokes, along with other Halloween ones. After DJ Juana was finished at 10PM, Gwen took over the DJing.
In the back was a "Be My Boo" photo stand that Charlee and I tried out.

Thank you everyone, and thank you my sweet Charlee for a birthday I'll never, never forget.
