So as you can probably imagine, I am very popular and lead an incredibly exciting life. That's part of the reason I don't blog much (the other part, in case you were wondering, is because I am busy waging war on X-mas). Part of this exciting existance is the occasional party invite, one of which I received today and will reprint in its unabridged, unedited, un-made-upedness below:
