Holidaze party

Party! (Before you get lost in details: remember that I ALWAYS APPRECIATE RSVP’S!!!! Yes, I’m yelling that.)

What: Holidaze party. You will probably already be in a daze by then, so what’s one more party?

When: Sunday, December 21st from ~1pm-7pm. If you are having a mandatory shut down the week after we can discuss staying later and drinking more seriously.

Where: Our house. Duh. (If you don’t know where we live let me know and I’ll send you the address.)

Why: Because parties are fun. I will be free of all school obligations and feeling celebratory. Because I will have cookies and cinnamon rolls and brownies and crumbles and all sorts of other stuff for folks to eat. [I will have gluten free stuff (I’ve already figured out what I’m doing), There will be dairy free stuff. And I’m going to try to have some diabetic friendly deserty something as well on principle. If you fall into one of these groups here is your social pressure to show up and appreciate my efforts. 🙂 ]

Who: Lots of folks I like and Noah likes. Which includes you, so you should come. 🙂

FAQs:
Should I bring anything? Only if you want to. Things that would be the most appreciated would be food of the savory nature. Dear God don’t bring sweets. If you want to bring alcohol make sure it is really really nice alcohol. We got rid of all the cheap shit and we don’t have any desire to replace it.

Can I bring anyone? Of course your SO is invited. If you want to bring several of your friends please check with me first. This is a fairly large invite list and this is NOT A DHP. So please don’t post this to everyone you know. 🙂 If it looks like only ten people are showing up I will probably say, “Sure–the more the merrier.” If it looks like 50+ people I will say, “Uhhh… well… uhhhhmmmm how strongly do you feel about them coming?” Mostly I just want to have a vague idea of how many people to prepare for at the event.

Will the party be kid friendly? I bloody well hope so because I have no where to hide my kid. I will point out that if you are the sort to have a mandatory shut down the next week and you want to hang out later drinking and you do something in the garage it would probably be fine.

Should I bring you a present? I love presents! I love presents so much that here is a link to my wishlist. But no, you don’t have to bring me a present. 🙂 Or Noah. Or even Shanna. 🙂

Stuff that needs to get to people.

blackrose900 have shirt that will likely fit you. Is Gorgeous. Will I ever see you again?

Alright! Let the pinging begin…

Oh yeah, Christmas

It is in oh…54 hours. Maybe I should put more information out. Ok, so I was kicked in the backside and told to do so.

Our idea is to sit around the house and eat leftovers (no guarantee on how much food we will have), open pressies, watch silly movies, be snarky. I promise no more than this. We would like it if people did not arrive before 10. No clue as to when we will want to kick people out cause I’m on vacation and Noah took the 26th off.

Uhm… if you want to bring food/drink feel free to call and ask us what we have/don’t have. You are not required to bring food or drink, but if you whine about our lack of food I will be directing you to a local Chinese restaurant and you will be required to bring me back chow fun.

I have 4 RSVPs so far. It would be awesome if other people would tell me BEFORE you show up. 🙂

Orphans Christmas

I’m about to be late for work, so consider this a placeholder invitiation.

If you are seeing this you are on my invite list for being welcome in our home on Christmas Day. This isn’t going to be a huge party, but I’m really into Christmas and I plan to sit around watching Christmas movies and eating yummy food and generally basking in having my first non-sucky Christmas in years and years. 🙂

You are welcome to join me. I am going to request that if you want to come over you HAVE to let me know. Maybe only the morning of, but please don’t just show up and expect us to feed you/entertain you. That would be pressure I am not ok with having on Christmas. Thank you for your consideration. (Maybe details to follow…)

Here comes Santa Clause…

Last night we were lying in bed talking about what we each want from Christmas and one of my things was that I am going to miss is watching the cartoon Christmas movies that my mom has. 🙁 Noah, being Noah, said: “Hey! We could check Amazon…” Dude. I’ve never gotten out of bed so fast. I RAN to the living room and we looked up several of my favorites. We found most of them, two not being available, and I am SO excited. We are going to have the Trolls and the Christmas Express!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SQUEEEEEEEEEEE

He’s a good husband. 🙂

Speaking of Christmas: how many of you are going to be sticking around town this Christmas? Who’s going away?
