Parties are a lot of work. Parties involve lots of cleaning and cooking and general doing of things that need doing anyway (like cleaning the bathroom and finding like, mouse food from six months ago because the mice don’t live in the bathroom anymore) …
And I like HAVING parties and going to parties and we have a lot of parties, every year, we have like, oh…at least two big ones. I always say I’m going to scale back and then we do them anyway. I don’t think many people are coming to this party today, and that’s ok, but I have to do the same amount of work for a party with ten people as with twenty or fifty, so…really, it’s a wash.
I’m ready to eat some latkes and hot dogs though, and hang with some friends. I’d just like to be playing the Sims or reading, though. Haha. See? Vacation laziness.

Love parties too…for me it’s afterwards when I sit back and wonder…
Why the hell I vacumned, Swept, Windexed, and moped…just to Re-Mop, Re-Vac, Re-Windex Etc. It’s not like it was so bad that if they had just popped in for a visit I would have cringed…
Enjoy your Vaca.

Parties are definitely a lot of fun, but also a lot of work. I hope you enjoy yours!

I love having parties or people over b/c it forces me to clean the house. But I’m also done for a while…time for some peace and quiet! Vacation time!
