My best friend, Veronica, had turned twenty-one today, and I wanted to do something nice for her. Everything was set: the food was ready, her gift was neatly wrapped on my desk, our apartment looked a hell of a lot tidier than it usually did – it was perfect. Until I realized that I'd forgotten to get a cake.

But then after braving the snowstorm that had blown in and getting to the bakery, I found two strange-looking, half-frozen butt-naked women on my way home.

This was not how I had expected the night to go.
