Party like it’s 1981
Guess it’s time for a quick update. The NYE party was a BLAST! We ended up bringing Nick along- the 13 year old- but the other 13 year old boys we thought would be there weren’t. Although there were five 12-13 year old GIRLS there. Who were being all girly. Fortunately there was a group of 16 year old boys who let Nick hang with them, so he had a good time.
There was way too much food. There was a chiminea type thing burning out back. There was great music on a mix CD made by my friend’s boyfriend. There were people there I barely know but sometimes that makes it even more fun. It was nice to really party- not sit around and act all proper-like. We danced, we sang, we drank. I even did shots of Jagermeister. I don’t know how I’ve lived this long without doing that, but I guess the punch lowered my resisitance and next thing I know I’m drinking what tastes like Nyquil. OK, now I can say I did that. It was like we were back in high school college.
The kids were avoiding us for some reason. I guess watching people in their 40s party like they’re teenagers is appalling to actual teenagers.

I’m glad you had such a great time at a party! Oh, Jagermeister….haven’t had that in a long time. Not that I’d want it, never have been much of a shot drinker, unless you wanna see me TU! It sounds like a great party, what a terrific way to embarrass your kids too. Love that part of being a parent! :)
