It's Leslie Jones' 50th birthday, and she's celebrating appropriately.

At exactly 12:01 a.m., the comedian and Saturday Night Live star tweeted the following:

There's cake! There's a luxurious bathrobe! A choreographed birthday dance! If this isn't the ultimate in birthday inspiration, then I'm sorry, but I can't help you.

After a eventful summer of Game of Thrones live-tweets and Weekend Update: Summer Edition appearances, Jones will return for Saturday Night Live's 43rd season on Sept. 30.
