I'm Back!

I can't believe I went a week without posting.

I wish I could say it was because I had won the lottery. Or Mark had whisked me away to a private island in the Caribbean.

But no.

I worked a crap load this past week. and didn't have much to write about.

Now, my circumstances changed as of last night. Why? Well because we had 30'ish people over last night for, what was widely claimed to be, one of the best parties ever.

Prior to any consumption of alcohol, I counted:

2 1/4 LARGE bottles of vodka

11 (yes, ELEVEN) bottles of wine

2 trays (each holding 48) of Jello Shots

30 jello shots that didn't fit onto the trays

1 Large bottle of Tequila and corresponding margarita stuff
1 decent sized bottle of coconut rum

Beer - between 4 and 5 twelve-packs.

Now, once people arrived, we received:

4 more bottles of wine

1 more bottle of vodka

2 bottles of sparkling wine

1 bottle of coconut rum.

Copious more amounts of beer

Sometime after I consumed massive amounts of jello shots and vodka/cranberry juice, apparantly there was ANOTHER run to a liquor store. Wherein was purchased:

More juice

MORE vodka (good lord...)

2 bottles of Jaeger-meister (sp?)

Two folks brought accordians. Much fun. MUCH fun.

And the best part? 6 boxes of SPARKLERS!!!!!

Everyone got me into the yard with sparklers and asked me to do a dance. I fell. But it was SOOOOOO much fun.

Sparklers and jello shots = Giant Fun.

p.s. - not all of the liquor was consumed. Out of everything, there is about 18 beer bottles left, 4 bottles of wine, 1 of the LARGE bottles of vodka and the sparkling wine.

And NONE of the jello shots were left. NONE.

I wish y'all could have come!

p.p.s. -- for those of you that dropped me an email checking on me. Thank you....
