Ah yes, having re-read the announcement for the party, I see now that it is planned for January 9th. Imagine Paul's surprise (surprise!) when I showed up, friends in tow, to the shop tonight. It was a good thing we had beer and brownies to share! Well, I supposed it was a prewarming party... you know, make sure you know your way there, that you get your entrance just right, and, of course, scout out the place so you know just what to bring and what to wear. sheesh.
I am such a dork.
I think I've got a lock on the slow race.
