Last Monday was my birthday, and my son Jack, along with BFF Doctor Donna, arranged to have a party at my house.  

What I didn't know was that it was a zombie-themed party, and everyone really got into it. I was in my kitchen preparing some hors d'oeuvres (well lah-dee-DAH) for everyone when Donna yelled out, "Hey! Luis (her husband) is here with the cake! We need help carrying it upstairs!"

So I go downstairs, and I see all these freakin' zombies shuffling toward me intoning, "Brains... brains..."

They TOTALLY got me.

When they all sang "Happy Birthday" to me, they did it in character!

Thanks, Jackie and Donna! And Luis and Erin (especially for shooting the video) and Nancy and Kendra and Danielle and Stephanie and Richard and Amanda! You guys are the bomb!
