Well, the cat’s out of the bag. For those of you who came by my place this weekend, I cleaned up the mess (with the amazing early morning help from my surprise guest, Dave. THANKS DAVE!) and I had everything perfect and even better than when my sister left town. Unfortunately, I somehow kept forgetting to empty out the beer tub that was on the back porch. When she walked up the first thing she said was “you had a party?” Now party may be an exaggeration, BUT…
After that I was completely honest. I figured I’m a grown up and I had a few friends over and the place looks great so no harm no foul. She was pretty cool about it. She did find a watermelon rind and a cigarette in the dirt, but that’s not too shabby.
Thanks to everyone for such a nice time. I never imagined the Kentucky Derby would be such a good excuse for a get-together and I had so much fun watching it! My horse even won! But the highlight would have to be the Bocce Ball. It is my new favorite game. Thanks Jay! Not to mention great Mint Juleps and a Kentucky Derby pie. Thanks Matina!
To those who I didn’t get a chance to invite, sorry about the last minute nervous throw together shindig, but next time I’ll have a real party with permission and invite everyone!
see, whenever you mention horse racing, it makes me think of that Bobcat Goldwaith movie Hot To Trot 🙂 I’m glad your horse won, and I’m seething that I missed the best box social of the season… tee hee
yES AND you did not invite the anonymous poster. Where once i wAS filled with Love joy and praise. I now feel only hatred contempt and rage. Death to America! and I say Death to this blog. Let there be no more posting in this cursed space.
Thanks to all the cool people who attended on Sat. and to Jay and Matina for bringing supplies. Thanks Miss KT for the funky shindig, (which was definitely not a party Marie:))
one of you bastards chipped a bocce ball. do you realize how much those things cost?
$12.33 each and I believe it’s your sister, Jennifer, and myself who owe you.
why don’t you just pick up a chai for me some morning? i’ll consider that payment enough.
I feel like I’m already bathing in your chai teas.
Grrrrr.. what the hell does that mean?? ooh okay, so thats it. hmmmf
I’m pretty sure that I saw a guy chip a bocce ball at the party, but I don’t want to name any names, he said he was sorry. Jay you should have bought the $15 dollar set.
What’s with anonymous poster’s erratic capitalization? Is this a reflection of his mood swings?
