We usually host various grilled meat parties or food parties. Our last party was Ahnoldpalooza where we ate copious amounts of meat and watched Arnold Schwartzenegger movies. I guess that’s what happens when you hang out with a bunch of dudes.

I brought strawberry cupcakes. They were pink. :)

Chapeaux a-plenty, sir! And since they tend to be murder mystery parties, lots of arch repartee, era-appropriate classic cocktails and the occasional Charleston. I’ve got to say, I’ve probably made more smalltalk about the Prohibition than anyone I’ve ever met…

You hold 20s themed parties? I am officially impressed! What do these parties entail? Flapper dancing? Lots of hats? And I’m with you on the contrived thing. I really don’t like contrived.

I have no problem with retro social outings — you’re talking to a girl who hosts one or two ’20s-themed parties a year! I’m just not much one for hanging out with strangers in contrived circumstances.

You don’t go for retro social outings? That’s rather a shame; it sounded rather fun, although would probably be more fun if you actually knew some of the people there – the whole going on a pub crawl with strangers thing is a tad odd.

But if you didn’t like 19th century pub crawls, maybe try a mad hatter’s tea party? Mine worked rather well…

Ugh, grody! As I like to imagine TKOMom used to tell me: “It’s not the guy’s responsibility. It’s not the girl’s responsibility. It’s your responsibility!” How friggin’ hard is it for everyone to come prepared?

It’s better to look like the gardener! Then visitors will see you milling about the estate, assume you are hired help, and confess their dastardly secret vendettas against the owner! Oh ho ho and then who shall have the last laugh!

…or…or something more remotely plausible.

So, recently was talking to a guy, he says, if we were to ever, you I would expect you to take care of the birth control issue, I said, oh, that’s no problem at all and hung up. Wicked Shawn says “Sign numero uno of douchebaggery! Is it not enough that I would be the one in charge of panic and peeing on hand???
Loved the post!!!
