birthday things

just a few little things to add, it was mainly a suprise and went very well. however, as everyone knows the birthday girl likes to be the one who plans the events... so, she kept bugging me about having a going-away or bday party. i kept telling her it was under control that we will have one, etc... it became practically an everyday question, so much so that there were a few days i almost told her about the party. well, as kathy stated social custom here in argentina (of being at least 1hr later than the stated time) dictated that there werent many people there for the "suprise" but most of our friends were able to make it and everyone had a great time.

another amazing thing about the nightlife is just how absolutely late it goes, needless to say if you are going home at 3 or 4 am (the time we usually do) most places are full, and there is still a general buzz in the streets. i believe around 5 or 6am is really when things starting thinning out.
