This house is officially warmed

Well, the party went off without a hitch. There were some damn great times had by all, and some bizarre memories created. Here's a quick rundown of the event in snippets...

-The sun is still really too warm at 6pm...
-Hairdressers get drunk really fast when they finally get a chance to sit down
-Costco meatballs are much more flavorful than you think and disappear really fast
-Spinach dip in a breadbowl will vanish in under 5 minutes when drunks find it sitting in front of an unattended sofa
-A velvet Mexican Sombrero is a very strange housewarming gift (thanks Shawna), but is quite entertaining when placed on the head of the first gay to pass out.... "get the camera"
-We finally found a use for the strange area behind our garage...
-Even at around 3 in the morning...
-Shadow gets very needy before a party, but amazingly enough won't ever really bark...
-Ice is our friend...always keep lots around...
-Always allow Mark to make a cd for your party...the perfect mix is in his hands!
-When mixing drinks, hold the shaker lid on REAL tight, right Claude?
-Never agree to take the party to the nearby bar when more than half of your group is either done drinking or doesn't drink... but thank god it's close to home so you can just go back there for more.
-At 1am "Avian gay bar"(also known as "New local gay bar" and "The parakeet" or even the "Regal Beagle.") is always too far to travel to...
-When all is said and done, having a housewarming party really does make the place feel official....it ads that final nail into the reality and suddenly the place is truly ours.

Thanks to all who came! You all made us feel great about the place. Those who missed it.. your loss, but hopefully we'll see you at a future party we throw.
