Space Time

Last night I took my place in a fleet of tour buses to attend the annual holiday festivities put on by one of the disruptive forces in the bay area. A series of tents had been transformed into futuristic and retro space discos and lounges. The DJs were spinning, the live band was rocking, and the bars were open. Not to mention the exquisite culinary delicacies that accompanied the liquid offerings.

There were three main rooms, all connected by a central airlock. The two largest were the blue (live band) and orange (DJ), and the third room was a chill lounge where people could mingle and the lines for the facilities were the smallest.

Everyone was dressed up, except for a few poor souls who either missed the suggested attire detailed in the invitation, or who just didn't feel like changing out of that T-shirt that managed to get them this far in the week.

I had a great time, and definitely appreciated the event.

Wow, sounds fantastic! Glad you enjoyed! Our recent celebration included a lovely Friday supper of fish and turkey, with roasted acorn squash soup, mashed herbed potatoes, pickled egges and hummus for appetizers, veggies galore and a birthday cake for dessert. Of course Shiraz wine was the choice for those that could drink. Two of our guests were with child and had choc milk or fruit juice or water. A lovely time was had by all. The local photographer can't quite figure out the simple features on her camera so most turned out blurry. Good thing she can cook when she feels that creative urge. :)

A series of tents had been transformed into a mottled green-and-brown volcano, along with most europeans, he was too good a leader named crazy horse.

That sounds like they put on quite the party. Bet you are glad that you are down there eh?

Our company rents out the WEM Waterpark for the family celebration and then the adult party is at the Agricom. I think there was 1150 there this year...and I got my 5 year watch!!

Oh, so you're all fancy now??

I crashed a work Christmas party this year, and they handed out tiny plates of nachos on the dancefloor. I thought, are they on to something here?
