[Poll #1294832]

For those who might have wondered where I disappeared to over the weekend, we got a surprise beach house invitation. I was pretty conflicted, because there were already a ton of cool things happening on Saturday, but the opportunity to escape normal life for a night finally won me over.

So, we were off to Lincoln City on Saturday evening, to meet up with Miles and Morgan at the beach house they had access to for the weekend. We played some games, tossed back some drinks, and engaged in some post-midnight frolicking on the beach. We didn't get to really see it until Sunday morning, but the house basically had beach for a backyard, and the view was *amazing*.

There was much silliness, the occasional Epic Wedgie, and a fairly ridiculous pushup contest that I actually did pretty well in, until I started laughing too hard to push up. ;) I am also apparently still quite awesome at Egyptian Rat Screw, bwahaha. Morgan made enchiladas, too, and oh, MAN. Everyone should make it a policy to make Mexican food before they drink. It certainly beats the hell out of Taco Bell.

Also, Halibut fish and chips wins over Cod. The End.

Tonight is Repo!, which makes me feel slightly better about missing karaoke, because at least I still get to see most of y'all. :) And tomorrow is, apparently, a day off, because it's Veteran's Day. Hot damn.

I tried to leave this in the text field but it was too short :)

We'll probably make a showing unless we're too bogged down in Thanksgiving preparations. So, like, 4 of us at least. That cool?

[skeets.livejournal.com]

Works for me!

Hey lady, I will definitely be in attendance with 1-3 members of my house and also virgoqueen7 and possibly Mike P. (aka Absorbo from the Halloween party). Is this all cool with you? I always feel kinda weird bringing a ton of people to a party. :)

[skeets.livejournal.com]

Hell yes. More = Merrier!

My mom is in town that weekend. I don't know what she's going to want to do on a Saturday night. :} And I don't know if you want me to drag my mom along. Heh. She's a nerd and all, but still. She's my -mom-.

I, too, have tomorrow off. Happy making!

[skeets.livejournal.com]

Heh, well, it's up to you! I'm down with Cool Moms. :)

Oh noes! I wanna go, but I'm seeing the Sisters of Mercy play that night. Any clue how late your shindig is likely to go?

[skeets.livejournal.com]

I guess it depends on who shows up; sometimes we go until late, sometimes our guests all turn into pumpkins at the stroke of midnight.

We *might* start a bit early, though, to accommodate those with kidlets. When's the show?

[bashou.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's a good band!

I only have one of their albums, though.

You were SORELY missed Saturday night! You are one of my favorite recent karaoke buddies, and a karaoke night without you there is just a little less complete. next time!

PS: I'm planning another cocktail party at my place, probably the first weekend in December. Interested? I haven't made the official invites yet, just seeing who will be in town that weekend and up for it.

[phasmaphobic.livejournal.com]

Also, re: house-warming party. Where do you live again?

[skeets.livejournal.com]

I'll post that under friends-lock shortly!

[skeets.livejournal.com]

Aww, sad panda. You are the most rad of karaoke buddies. Some guy did this limp rendition of Pussy Control when we were doing Girls' Night karaoke, and I was like, "damn, Nathanael needs to be here so he can beat this guy's ass."

First weekend of December is open... Bacon cocktails? ;)

[phasmaphobic.livejournal.com]

The bacon party will be a separate affair =)

[skeets.livejournal.com]

Heh, I know, just amusing myself with the ridiculous notion of a bacon-themed libation ;)

[phasmaphobic.livejournal.com]

Hahahah, yeah, that sounds... interesting.

I am actually pretty excited. This could be quite fabulous.

[virgoqueen7.livejournal.com]

what about a "maybe" bullet? :)

[skeets.livejournal.com]

Heh, righto :) I'd thought about starting earlier in favor of those I know who have kidlets, if that's of any help to you...

[virgoqueen7.livejournal.com]

Is it kid friendly or an adult sorta thang?

[skeets.livejournal.com]

It'd be more of an adult sort of thing, since I don't know that many people who have kids, but I figure we can keep things at least quasi-kid-friendly during the earlier hours, if there's call for it. :)

[barndawgg.livejournal.com]

Man, I wish we lived near you. I would be all over that party like a fat kid on cheez wiz!

[bashou.livejournal.com]

I could probably give rides to up to 4 other people (1 small) in my Sube.
