Have you ever walked into a room and thought: "Wow, that's a lot of people!" Well, that's kinda how it felt after I walked back into my family room after getting off my cell phone during my party on Monday the 26th. We were watching a tight movie called 'Serenity' and EVERYONE I had invited was upstairs watching it. The room is 13 feet wide from wall to wall and it was Packed with people. There were only 18 people at this point, the others would either show up later or had already had to leave. Needless to say the phrase "loose the bubble" has never applied more.
The party went very well, I think. Much because of my mother and keeping half the people entertained with a game of Pit, while I was playing pool and dealing with ordering our pizza. Fantastic woman, my mom, and I really enjoy being around her.
The only thing that could've made it better would have been if my darling Sarah had not left. I understand why she needed to and completely respect that. We didn't really hang out much, as she was talking with Ben and I was running around being a host, but it was nice to know she was there if ever I needed her. It's kind of that comforting reasurance that everything will be ok, because you know everything you could ever want or need is sitting in the front room with a ready smile and calming presence. Granted, it was still fun after she left, but it was just different once she was gone. The woman of my dreams became a dream and a wish earlier than I would have hoped, but she will always be there and will return just at the right time to make life a bliss worth living.
Aside from her departure there is really only one other event that sticks in my mind. It's a funny story to me, but it may be one of those you-have-to-be-there or a you-have-to-know-the-people kind of story.
I, myself, thought the "revenge" a way of trying to get attention and/or flirting. It was still funny, though. I guess it is kind of a you-have-to-be-there thing.

A Lap Full of Water
I was playing pool, and I had a shot at the 4 ball that was right up against the side. I hit the cue fairly hard to try to bounce the 4 into the opposite center pocket. I nailed the 4 ball and the cue took flight and landed right in Sarah H's lap. She jumped and a bunch of water came out of her cup and went up her sleeve. She chased me around the pool table before hitting me with a drum stick. I finished the pool game, winning by 1 ball, and said goodbye to my darling. I came back downstairs to watch the next game of pool. I decided to sit on Steph's lap (who was sitting right next to Sarah H), just for kicks and giggles.
We talked while the pool game progressed, then Meg knelt down infront of me and said: "I'm sorry for what is about to happen". I had no idea what she was talking about, then Sarah H leans over and dumps the rest of her water right into my lap. I looked at my lap in puzzlement for a second, then twisted where I was sitting to dump the remainder into Steph's lap. I stood up and more water fell on Steph's knees. Meg was litterally on the floor laughing, Sarah H was busting up, and Steph was just flabergasted that Sarah H would've done that while I was on her lap.

Beef,
having never read this blog, but remembering the incident vividly (as it was my lap you were sitting/ dumping water on) i have to say... I'm impressed with how well you described it! I STILL can't believe that Sarah poured water on your lap while you were sitting on me. I do not, however, have any problem believing that you (the charming individual that you are :-D) in turn, dumped the rest on me. My favorite part of the evening was when Chandler, seeing the water on my pants, asked me if i knew where the bathroom was...
Wow, that's funny about Chandler asking you that. He said quite a few good ones while he was over here, didn't her!! "Did she just really say that?" Case in point!
I'll NEVER forget the look on his face when he asked that! I thought I really was going to need the bathroom because I was laughing so hard!
