« Raul & Crystal's Christmas Cocktail Party | Main | Checking into Hospital »

December 11, 2006

Yesterday afternoon I had a little tree trimming party at the Barbie Dream Loft. I bought an 8 foot Christmas tree (aha aha ahha) Jill is so mad, she says I am trying to persecute her people and she is currently shopping for an 8 foot menorah.
So in celebration of my people (waspy white from Connecticut) I made cucumber sandwiches, cheese & crackers, served champagne and gin & tonics. And I invited all my Jewish friends to come over and celebrate my culture. It was a blast.

After tree trimming we all gathered around the TV and watched Darren & Tim's High School Marching Band video tape. Ah aha ahah h it was so funny. We also watched Creepy Uncle Steve's skydiving video. It was funny seeing him shitting bricks while he was going up in that plane! tee hee.

Isn't that Bridget on the tv in the photo towards the top? You are a true fan.

Good eye M. Of course that is Bridget. Barely a day goes by when we don't have the Girls Next Door or Intervention looping on Tivo.
