My Birthday Plans

UPDATE:  Yesterday, they surprised me at rehearsals with brownies, cupcakes, and cookies from Blossom. After rehearsal, I took the subway home and spent the day with Bear. Christopher rode his bike to Pure Food and Wine, because I was having a hankering for their Nori Kimchi Cashew Cheese Rolls. Yum!!
It was a nice, mellow, sweet day.

A couple years ago, I had a fun birthday bash at Animal Acres, a sanctuary just outside of Los Angeles. In this photo from my Animal Acres party, I’m hiding my pregnancy. The woman in the blue top is Mona May. She designed the costumes for Clueless and Vamps.
Last year, my husband surprised me for my birthday. Bear was five months old, and I had just finished shooting in New York. So I was pooped! My husband said, put on your PJs and come downstairs. And a few very close friends were there. It was nice – just a quiet celebration with Bear and a few friends.
This year, I’m in the middle of rehearsals for the play I’m in The Performers. I’ll probably spend the day rehearsing and taking care of Bear. And that’s it! When things quiet down, I’ll meet some friends for dinner and hopefully dancing – maybe in a week or two.
 
Where should we go dancing in NYC?
I’m looking for a place that’s not scene-y or club-y, but just fun and easy to dance. If you have a suggestion, leave it in the comments!
