Last Friday I had my biggest baddest party ever! Awesome!!! I had help from a couple of great friends, making it a huge success. The house was jam-packed, wall to wall people, from 7 p.m. to the wee hours of the morning. For music, I had an 11 hour playlist - a great variety set up by Roommate Joe. The table was piled full of jumbo shrimp, meatballs in jalapeno sauce, artichoke dip & French bread, fresh chickpea salsa & chips, deviled eggs with blue cheese and bacon, salami, veggies & dip, huge olives stuffed with garlic, blue cheese, sun dried tomatoes, and almonds. We ate good and enjoyed beverages!!! As the night turned into morning, we could certainly see evidence of my party pals enjoying themselves!!! The party was a big hit.
The week before the party I met a nice guy at my favorite bar. He took me to dinner a few nights later, and I invited him to the party. He just sat quietly, all evening. The only time he left his seat was to refill his wine glass, and then he went right straight back and sat down again. I ordinarily date guys who make their way around the room on their own, quite comfortably. As the host of the party, I was busy answering the door and introducing everyone around. I was kept busy playing my role the right way. I knew just an hour into the party, that it won't work. I need someone with more energy, vitality, self-confidence to carry him through the awkward moments.
In sum, the party was an absolute blast, a riot. It was worth all the effort. I look forward to my next party. I don't know if I can top this one, but I'm going to try!!!
