Last night was the Eve of Eve, and this time it was my turn to host the party. In honour of the fact that I was holding the Third Annual Eve of Eve Party instead of Torie, I decided I would take my artistic license and turn it into a Chrismukkah party. All this meant was that there was a sweet menorah that at one point wound up in the oven because my friends are just weird like that. Oh Oakville, how I missed you.
I can't even begin to explain how much fun it was. As soon as people starting showing up at the times I told them to, things got rolling. This should be taken as an important lesson for Eugene to learn when it comes to showing up on time. See, Eugene decided that he was told to show up at 7:00, not 8:30-9:00ish like I told him. He was lucky enough to show up around 7:30, leaving me to entertain him, Erin and Chi while I worked out the final details of the party. Nice work Eug.
Originally I was hesitant to drink because as a host it's always a good idea to make sure that Rob, Davey, and Dave are not taking stuff and moving it around the house, rearranging furniture, baking menorahs in the oven or playing with your lawnmower. I'm glad I had the idea to start Rob drinking so he would settle down with Alex. Stroke of genius if you ask me.
The AE Crew didn't make any appearances – they were all working until 6:00am. I'd pity them, but I had too much fun to feel that bad. Besides folding shirts and jeans is so much fun. The Asians showed up in three crazy waves, filled with much screaming, laughing and even tackling one time. What's the point of having Asians there if no one's getting the shit kicked out of them?
There will be pictures as soon as I can get everyone's together. Eugene has pictures up on his flickr account; Davey took 73 pictures and a video with my camera. Torie, Mel and Josh are also definite camera owners from the party. So expect something to eat up a lot of my bandwidth soon. I'm going to go get ready, tomorrow is the day of MANY presents that was preceded by 8 days of presents and I'm expecting to get some sweet gifts.
Although, in all fairness, you weren't all that entertaining :P
