Chic, IL Life Day Celebration - December 13

I can't wait for Saturday - I need a party!

I'll bring an appetizer and side salad of some type. And chairs. And beverages. And Bonita.

And anything else I can think of.

 

Yay! You're coming. And Bonita. This will truly be a Life Day to remember.

 

Can't wait for tomorrow!

Here's a hint on my gift for the gift exchange.
It's smaller than a speeder bike.

 

FYI: My townhouse is the one with the large Green Bay Packers flag next to the front door.

 

I'll be bringing Holiday chocolate covered pretzels and peanut clusters, egg nog (in cans that don't have to be refrigerated until opened), and The Star Wars Holiday Special (without commercials but the rest of the tape is filled with trailers and Kenner commercials).

Because my ride situation has changed at the last minute, I won't be able to make it for the book club portion.

April and I just wanted to thank everyone for coming last night! We had an absolutely great time hosting and it was wonderful to see everyone again.

We hope everyone has a great holiday season and a happy new year!

 

Also, if you took pictures, please PM me as I would love to have them sent to me. Thanks!

 

Thank you for hosting, Jawa. It was a lovely time and it was great to see everyone again. Lily_Wan told me to say Hi to everyone. Last minute real life messiness prevented her from attending.

What a rockin' party!!! Thanks, my fellow Rochellian, for hosting. (It was really fun chatting about our wacky little town, too!) This was the most fun I've had since...the last Life Day party I went to!

Anyone who took photos, please post them! I would love to see them!

And SOMEBODY got some snaps of the bobble head action, right????

The GRAB BAG was a lot of fun, and I am very happy with

Carrie Fisher's book "Wishful Drinking"

Also, I got a Serenity/Firefly book, that reminded me of a dvd,
that Serenity Fans should have,

and in general for everyone, and specifically for Josh & April

I recomend this fan film

Done The Impossible,

The xtra time-line on this disk is one of the best I have seen.

oh, and the book club was fun too,

I did not read the book, but I did listen to it on CD, un-abridged.

so I did not have to fake my contribution as in the past.....lol


ok, that is it for now,
unless I remember more people and names.

 

Thanks for the hosts with the mosts for having us in their lovely home. Too bad you're stuck with that 'Fireside Nut Brown' beer.

It's always great to have everyone together at this time of year.

Sorry Emma and I couldn't make it. My wife's retirement/fundraiser party was that night, and I, as a board member of the non-profit Pros Arts Studio, had a lionel's share of responsibility. Pros is a lot of things, it brings the arts back into five inner city schools, it has a very successful drop in center for teens with classes in hip hop, graffiti art, video production, sound production, and computer and clay classes. Best of all, considering our basic personalities, it has two graduates of the Ringling Bros. Barnum and Bailey circus teaching clowning, including skills such as juggling, unicycle riding, tumbling, balance, and skit development. All and all a great cause, almost worth missing Life Day with my Star Wars nerd buddies.
Emma is at the Eugene Lang College- the New School in New York, but will soon be back.
Force and High Fives,
Liobi

 

Sounds like I missed a good one...
and I am glad it was a success...

sadly...
the little boy that the fundraiser was for died the first week of December..
