My first party (at this apartment) was awesome. Sorry I couldn't invite you guys, but it was a pre-set guest list. We brought over 5 people: Phil, Julie, Jeff, Tom and Kelly.
The party originally was to start around 7, but got pushed to 9, and nobody came til 10.
Tom, Phil and Julie arrived at 10, Kelly got here about a 20 minutes later, and Jeff (who was coming from a movie shoot that ran late) got here around midnight.
Tom brought burnt (yet delicious) pizza.
Phil and Julie brought chips, guacamole, and hummus (yuck, hummus).
Kelly brought me a late Christmas present (but my birthday's next week, so we pretended it was an early birthday present rather than a 10-month-late xmas present ;) She gave me a Luis Royo art book called "Visions" which I don't have but wanted :)
Jeff gave me a disease! (Does that need more explanation? hehehe.)
Jeff gave me The Plague in adorable, soft plushie form. It's from a line called Giant Microbes and it is just the one I always wanted!!
We watched some good Vincent Price movies, many of which I hadn't seen yet. Charles and I swapped some with Phil, who brought over his own collection. I love Vincent Price so much!
Then we stopped to watch Saturday Night Live, with the real Sarah Palin. The first sketch was cute, but then it got dumb. We watched the whole thing (bah), and then we got back to the marathon.
Kelly passed out around 2am. And the last gust left at 3:30 or so.
It was so much fun. I made cookies, and a veggie/meat/cheese plate, and popcorn, and it was all a huge hit! Yay! Next time, though, I think we'll just settle for pizza ;)
And hopefully next time, I'll be able to invite more people!
