Kathypath threw a party last night, Tuesday. The plan was for a low-key shin-dig to celebrate C's birthday. I had been sick (Japanese food) the night before and a good portion of the day, so I planned on making my appearance, dropping off gifts for the birthday girl, drinking a glass of champagne, and then heading home to sleep.
But somehow I managed to dance until 6.30 in the morning and have the time of my life. The boys got drunken enough to strip and walk around completely nude (besides shoes) for at least ten minutes. The girls were pretty horrified, but not so disturbed that we forgot to take pictures. I DJed much of the evening and I have to say, Prince can really shake a party up.
Somebody broke Kathypath's desk, just split that bad boy right in two. He was dancing and lost control and fell right into it, like something out of a Chris Farley film. Kathypath was drunk enough at that point that she really didn't seem to care, but about an hour later she looked at her desk with mournful eyes and said, "I don't have a desk."
It really felt like that image of "What a Party Is" in your mind. Dancing, drinking, breaking of desks, nudity, music, odd come-ons by guys who don't know any better, and so on. It was an absolute riot.
When I left the house at 6.30, two people were asleep on Kathypath's bed, one was asleep on the extra bed, and B was out cold on the kitchen floor. When I tried to convince him to sleep on the pull out couch, he shooed me away and said, "I have to get up in an hour to go to work, so I really can't get comfortable or I won't get up."
I know how backwards the logic is, but I remember doing that all the time in college. People would ask me why I was sleeping on the couch with my clothes on in our big-windowed living room without a blanket, and my answer was always because I had to work in the morning so I didn't want to want to stay asleep. The other partygoers thought that B was crazy, but I dug it.
Luckily, today I had nothing to do besides some Spanish homework. Oh, sure, technically I could have gotten lots of important things done, but I slept until 17.00. I think a party and an all-day sleep-in were just what I needed. I feel like dynamite.
