This week, B and I went liquor shopping for my birthday party on Saturday.
We discovered we are great fans of Calvert Woodley in Van Ness. (Thanks Lem!)
No, like, really, really big fans.
Oh wait, almost forgot the Fresca! (Don’t judge. It is scrum-diddly-uptious with some vodka.)
So I was thinking, (shut up, I do that sometimes)… We should concoct a (simple) drinking game to play during the party. Please feel free to add more in the comments…
Every time Restaurant Refugee is wearing a suit (repeat every time you look at him): 1 drink
Everytime my Carolina girl Kdawg says “Y’all”: 1 drink
Every time FreckledK tells a story about a crazy date or suitor who seemingly cannot read or write: 2 drinks
Every time someone pokes their head out the window and waves at our next door stoop-sitters: 2 drinks
Every time KassyK strokes her or someone’s else’s hair: 3 drinks
Every time someone tries to put Shannon in their pocket/purse for keeps: 3 drinks
Every time B gets someone to sing karaoke to Rock Band: 4 drinks
Every time Lilu faceplants into something or otherwise injures herself: 4 drinks
Every time Lemmonex uses a food as a porn reference: 2-5 drinks, (depending on how hard it makes my mother blush- and my mother is in New England…)*Super Amazing Bonus Round: If J happens to revisit a memory and has an “accident”?: SHOTGUN A BEER.
It’s on like Donkey Kong, people. Put your big girl panties on… IT’S A PARTY!!!
*I have to give the Refugee credit for that one. It was too good not to use

Is it a problem that I don’t own big-girl panties? I mean, I guess I could go buy a pair, but well, I’m just not sure my ass would look good in them.
So, no ripping about fresca here – I definitely love that stuff.
Sounds like its going to be a fun party! Can’t wait to hear all the stories!
If you have a PS2, I’m happy to bring along a few editions of Karaoke Revolution.
Also, what if someone tries to stuff me into a backpack?
Every time KassyK strokes her or someone’s else’s hair: 3 drinks
Um… my liver says no.
Love ya Kassy!
I have a passport! I have a passport!
But no transportation. Crap.
Happy Birthday Party Shenanigans! Welcome to (almost) the downhill side of 20…it’s as fabulous as you make it.
Be sure to have a toast to me as I plan on celebrating Canadian Thanksgiving with my gay family instead of my real family. If I’m going to endure passive aggressive behaviour, it might as well come with some flare.
If someone doesn’t dance with a lampshade on their head by the end of the night, I will be disappointed. See ya tomorrow, lovey.
I will be at a birthday party on Saturday too… I can only HOPE that the birthday girl has stocked her fridge in this same manner. Have a fabu time!
Doug: “Big-girl panties” can be a metaphorical term, I suppose. I’ll allow it.
Shannon: Xbox, unfortch. We’ll make it work. And if anyone’s wearing a backpack, it better be stuffed with booze.
66: We are in a lot of trouble, if we stick to this game.
Fearless: I’ll pour one out for ya. And gay family holidays are the best. Mostly because you can WATCH the drama instead of being IN the drama.
Lem: I’ve got a lampshade with your name on it.
Charlotte Harris: Is she from PA, too? Then there’s a good change… (actually, almost half that Yuengling is gone already. We’re going to have to restock…)
Happy Birthday and Have Fun!
Happy Birthday!
Metaphorical? So you ARE commenting on my ass size? Damn you…
If I revisit that accident I’ll shotgun a beer BEFORE I take off my big girl panties.
Zip: Thanks! I will… guaranteed.
Miss Scorpio: Thanks, chica!
Doug: Nothing wrong with some junk in the trunk, dear…
J: I am quite sure some form of craziness will ensue… I just can’t wait to see how it presents itself.
I’ll be the “cute” Bum knocking on your door, shooting the shots then very kindly offering to take out your trash. Have a WONDERFUL Birthday!
What? No keg stands? Because nothing says party like 25-35 year olds trying to relive the glory days.
Happy Birthday!
Fiona: I’m sure you make an adorable bum. You can even have a beer can or two BEFORE I drink it.
Thanks girl!
Katherine: We seriously debated a keg. And then decided we’d get into much more trouble with hard liquor. Thanks for the bday wishes!
I personally like smuggling my liquor through state lines, and buying it at BJ’s Wholesale when I go up to Jersey (yep, no beer on supermarkets there, but Costco and BJ’s can sell beer, wine AND liquor. For CHEAP.)
On that note, I have so much liquor at home that people get overwhelmed at my parties…
No, we should drink on the rare occasion when Kass isn’t touching her hair, or the hair of another (I don’t even think she realizes she does it. It’s adorable). Otherwise, I’ll be passed out before I even put down my purse.
You know, I thought about BRINGING that guy to your shindig, if only for entertainment value. Something tells me he’d have no qualms (or, as he says, quarraums, about playing Rock Band with your man).
Beach Bum: We thought about CostCo but it’s $50 for a membership. And 50 bucks is a WHOLE LOTTA HOOCH…
Frecks: I have a feeling there will be PLENTY of entertainment, with or without the illiterate text-talker…
look at all that liquor goodness! mmm. happy bday!
Happy birthday! Enjoy, try to remember the day after, or at least have fun trying!
Brookem: Thanks, darlin. Liquor + birthdays + LiLu = danger. AWESOME danger.
Brett: I am going to attempt to keep my wits about me for MOST of the night… we’ll see how that goes!
Hapthy Berth..th..thhh thhh..day [sways]… Did I awwwww…Reeed E tell yewt Hapthy Berth..th..thhh thhh..day
I’m just wondering how I’d say happy birthday if I were the proud owner of that much booze!
WAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! I’m still pissed about this. Maybe you should make an addition: Get out your crystal ball and drink every time I think about you guys and our terrible timing over this weekend.
Read: Get a straw and start sucking.
Happy Birthday, fucker. I love you.
Foxy: Amen, brotha. Preach.
Caitlin: Scratch the drinking game… if that’s a rule, we’ll all be hugging the porcelain god by 9pm. LYLAS… have fun in cheese country!
had a blast…AND how good was i with hair touching? minimal caressing biatchs!!!!!!!!
love you livit–you are the bestest hostest in the world and so is peter petrelli park deux.
MUAH happy birthday!!
Kass: Thanks babe! So glad you made it.
Personally, I’m offended that Kass didn’t find my hair to be sufficiently strokable.
Hmm I didn’t see this in time, but I’m sure I said y’all a good many times…especially like this, “OMG Y’All, I didn’t mean to start the fight! I swear y’all, that guy was a douche…”
ooops, Mere and I are sooowwwrry
