We rang it in at a friend’s house last night and had a large time. Even though we didn’t get there til about 9:30, I managed to eat and drink enough equal to at least 8 hours of party time.
You know those sliding glass doors that people have leading out to their patios? Some little kid crashed through one of those last night. The kids were playing tag or something and another kid decided to close the door as the other one was hauling ass towards it. He ran straight through it and luckily didn’t get hurt at all. I have never seen such. A vacuum gave its life while cleaning up the mess.
I also discovered the best place to pass out rest (Resting! I was just resting!) if you are at a party where children are present. Wait til some kids crawl off to sleep somewhere and weasel your way onto the bed too. Nobody will really bother you because they don’t want to risk waking the children. Drinking makes me sneaky and smart! Sometimes. The other times it makes me puke.
Here is my favorite photo from when Bekah and Sam were here. Sam’s the kid in the striped shirt with her back to the camera. She was jumping up and down. All of the little kids lost their freaking minds when the band started playing. It was so cute that my uterus twinged the whole time. I wanted to steal a kid. Any of those kids.
May 2010 have you jumping for joy on a regular basis!

I had an urge to have children once and it ended with Jackie being born. I have never had such urges since.
Happy New Year.

Could I borrow Jackie for awhile? Maybe that would squash my urge.

I know from first-hand experience that Jackie is fucking AWESOME now, which makes me think having a kid will eventually lead to have someone so awesome in my life on a regular basis? Fuck yeah, have babies!

OH MY GOD NOW I GET YOUR TEXT.
“Noooooo. I found where all the kids went to sleep and crashed.” <<<< That made NO SENSE to me last night. AT ALL. I thought you were insane. Although later you told me your arms were asleep and you were a brontosaurus, so….

Hahahahahaha!
And I had to read my texts to realize why you left me a voicemail regarding a brontosaurus.

Bekah, you should tell Jackie to come down here sometime when you and Chickie are in the area. I think that would be fun.
As long as no one pukes.

I think all three of us would puke.

For the record, I’d be ok with that.

I will try to swallow my puke.

Happy New Year, Chickie!
Love the pic of the kids dancing…it’s always amazed me that no matter how young, we always respond to music.

Happy New Year to you!
I had never seen anything like all those little kids out there. It was so cute! I called it a baby mosh pit.

I’ve seen (young) adults both drunk and sober fall through a sliding door on more than one occasion but never children. Glad that no one was hurt. Hopefully the owners can find a replacement that matches.
BTW: Has your uterus stopped twinging yet?

I’d never seen anyone go through a door like that. It was safety glass so it basically crumbled but it was luck that nobody lost an eye. As far as fixing it – they said it looks like another glass can be slid right into the frame. Hopefully.
Nope. I think the twinge is permanent.
