Prince of Party

[learnedax]

The party of yesterday: a picnic thingy at new_man and mermaidlady's. Very long, lots of fun interesting people with LJs who I will not enumerate here. A moderate amount of hot tubbing in the High-Tech Bubble Experience. Good food including Palio leftovers, and meat from new_man's shiny new grill. Also some entertaining, and mostly comprehendible, chatty brits.

The party of today: shogunhb's chance to show off his new grill. A bunch of fun Worcester folk I hadn't met, and some friends I hadn't seen in a while. Unexpected (by me) appearances by princess_muffin, baron_saturday, and mr_teem. Entertaining jello, er, well, not wrestling really, more like jello girly-fighting, but it was pretty entertaining whatever it was. Catastrophic plumbing issues kept shogunhb unfortunately preoccupied for much of the party, but everyone else had fun.

The party of tomorrow: BBQ at elizabear and dsrtao's. The food will have been great, the company will have been witty, and the fireworks will have been fireworky.

I was actually thinking about fitting in a couple of other gatherings this weekend, but I decided to take it easy.

Hmm... bummer. As nice as the gathering on the Esplanade was, I would have like to have gone to [Unknown site tag]'s. I don't read Shogun's LJ (maybe I should start), so I need to tweak Nuance about not posting about the party in her journal.

Jell-O wrestling is overrated.

Oh, I think I might have mentioned it in passing on Saturday, but I forgot that you now know them (and a couple of other people there). Then again, I knew you were planning to go the the Esplanade, and it's not exactly convenient to swing by Worcester afterwards.

Not your fault at all. I know lots of people (including some who had a party on Saturday, consarn them!) and this is a busy weekend. The lesson is, if I want to keep up on all the parties, I need to read more people's LJs -- or I need to be satisfied with the parties I go to (which I was).

Yes, yes, it really is.

Or were you speaking as an observer, rather than a participant?

Why do you ask questions that you really don't want the answers to?

*is justifiably tweaked*

The important thing is that I WON the Jello wrestling!

Of course you did, dear. In Jell-O wrestling the woman with the largest, um, collection of Jell-O at the end is the winner. ;-)
