Wow.  I’m sitting here listening to my new Bette Midler ‘Live at Last’ album in my new teal sequin dress (I didn’t ask for presents, but I wouldn’t say no!) and still feeling ecstatic.

My Bat Mitzvah went off without a hitch: no rain, my gluegun lasted just long enough to make the cake (a Hanukkah-like miracle), and there was a line down the block!  I literally had the time of my life and I’m grateful to everyone for dressing up gorgeous, dancing the Horah, and helping me live out this perverted dream!

Seriously, I feel like I’ve made it — not as a star or anything, but as a person in the kind of world I want to live in.  And I’ve already heard such overwhelmingly positive feedback — who knows, maybe Lil Miss will throw more parties in her new-found womanhood?  (But for now she’s going to sleep for days.)

And the best part: we raised $1500 for the US Social Forum!  (If you want to learn/give more, click here.)

Be sure to check out your PHOTOS!  (After the jump.)  And of course, huge thanks to Mikeomatosis and Justin for snapping them!

Also, while I’m doing thank-yous, let me name all the people I didn’t get to name last night:

THE BLUE MACAW: Barbara, Josette, and all of the bartenders and other staff!

And the part of the toast I forgot: “Here’s to a world based on love and justice… And where everyone can dress like Lady Gaga if and when we want to!”

xoxo,
Lil Miss Hot Mess
