Josh took a step back and admired the large white banner spread over the back wall of the abandoned classroom, reading 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH!' There were balloons tied to the tables, the benches, and the candelabras, and festive red and green crepe paper along the walls. In one of the corners Josh had set up a pinata, because he liked pinatas, and in another corner, there was a 'petting zoo' in the form of a rabbit pen, because Josh liked bunnies (and hence why there was an Easter Bunny, though Josh later came to regret that decision).
A Chinese feast, mostly in take-out cartons, had been spread out on the main table, and the House Elves had placed a large chocolate cake on the very end. One of the House Elves was industriously writing, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH" in green frosting.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY SON," came a booming voice from the ceiling.
"Thanks, Dad. Mind getting the word out that I'm having a party? I'm afraid I don't really know anyone but the antichrists, here." Josh considered this a moment. "That's kinda odd, isn't it? Oh well. Can you make some sort of proclamation?"
"SURE THING. ATTENTION ALL! COME CELEBRATE JOSH'S 2006TH BIRTHDAY IN THE FOURTH CLASSROOM TO THE LEFT ON THE SECOND FLOOR, BY THE STATUE OF THE CONFUSED-LOOKING DWARF. THERE IS A PINATA."
"Jeez Dad. Didja have to let everyone know that I'm that old? Never mind. Thanks."
