Halloween Party / Birthday
After a month of prep and much redecorating, we finally had our Halloween party this last Friday. The party itself was a zoo, unofficial estimates (and there will be no official estimates, so do not hold your breath) are putting the attendance around 250 individuals who chose to either come by for an hour or make a night of it. The last of the guests left at about 3:30. Now the house is a mess of course, we now have to undo all the decorating and transform the abode back from Vegas into a livable space.

Thank you to all for coming, and those of you who couldn't: There will be another one in 6 months' time. Keep your antennae peeled.

Halloween happened to coincide with my birthday as always, a great coincidence that seems to happen every year like clockwork. This year I had some great cards, gifts and company, with family, Don all the way from NYC, housemates and oh yeah, 200+ of my best friends :) Maybe I will take next year a bit easier.
