'twas the night before the night before xmas

party was a success, if i do say so myself. the only bad thing about hosting one of these is that you don't get to mingle as much as you'd like. there's always a drink to be made or something that has spilled (well, in this case, a storm window that has broken!) or something needing to be done. I have to say, though, that this party i was able to hang back and chat a little more, which was nice. lots of food, lots of good people, and a very fun gift exchange which showcased the true alchy's ... the cosmo mix and margarita mix were the hot items to be stolen! Although, not to be ignored: the awesome mixed cd, book & incense from Ben as well as the adorable purse, lip balm combo from Melanie ... and of course many more cool ass things.

The same old Christmastime crew hung around (indeed, crashed!) until the wee hours of the morning: me, mark, jeff, adriana, trent and ben and sam, who did go home but not until 4am. The next morning we all piled in my bed and then out on the futon to watch any and all kinds of tv.

Sigh... one party down, more to come this vacation. :) actually, i should be getting ready for the main event (christmas with the family) right now! eep.

psst - if you'd like to see pictures from the shindig, check out trent's blog post here.
