No Grinches here...

Tonight was our first time hosting a Christmas party at our house. It was a lot of fun, in spite of several people not being able to make it...for whatever other FUN thing they had to do tonight. Okay, people...don't say we've never invited you to anything... :-).

Good crowd with Joel, Daniel, Chastity, Kenny, Debbie, Eli, Patti, J-mo, Dave, Dana, Jordan, Andy, Stacey, me, and our young-uns. Lara jumped in for a "brief" visit. We had good food, a cool Dirty Santa time, and then people just "hung out." All in all, a good party...but I'm sorry several people were sick (or dealing with sick-uns) and couldn't make it. We just have to gather more often, and we shouldn't have to wait for a holiday to do it.

Tomorrow is our run-through for the drama-thing...w00t. That should be fun, but sickness is plaguing the production. Please pray that all illnesses will be quick, so we can actually pull this thing off...

KEY PHRASES: "What a cool pig with glasses!" "Oh, man...it's a dusty vintage PC controller." "See? I told you it was the nectar of the Gods." "Is that fruitcake fresh? Or is it a past Christmas present from 3-4 years ago?"
