Hey all!

Just checking back to see what I missed since we left so quickly to go to the Oat party and all. Sorry we dragged Sea with us and away from your company, but she sure had a blast.

Ok, the next person that comments that oldscratch and I look alike is gonna get flayed alive! No, I’m kidding. I don’t see it, but I wouldn’t of course.

Camster was a very gracious host, and has a beautiful home! slackergirl gets mad props for driving our asses from BART to the party location. I tried really hard to put faces with names, but it was tough because I was there for so short a time. Hope you guys enjoyed the brownies! They’re why we were so late.

Snooooopy did a reprise of Driver 8 just for me when I got there, yay! Well done. I got teased for being from Rhode Island, though thankfully I don’t seem to have a horrible “Rho Diland” accent.

DAMNIT, I forgot to show everyone the pictures of me and Nymysys in the airport! And sorry Jack, you’re gonna have to stay in the dark as to the gifts. But I can say now that every one has been used. 😉

The Oat (boat) party was incredible; had a blast partying with Sea, zyzz, oldscratch and a friend of his. The Bay is soooo nice. I can’t get over how beautiful this city is. I belong here.

And you’ll probably all be disappointed to know, my hair is now not so bright. Had to dye it back to a more “respectable” color. So now it’s dark dark purple, in anticipation of my return home. _SOB_ I don’t wanna go!!!

I WILL be back. For good. Expect it! Just a fair warning.

Thanks for the entertainment, hopefully next time I’ll get to stay longer! Back to RI tomorrow… and I really don’t want to go. Did I mention that?

Ah yes. Saturday. We got to the party fashionably late… 4:30. We left at 5:30. Headed to the oat party with sea in tow… It was much fun. Got many comprimising photos, danced with the irish, stared off at cranes.

Then we headed to CELL. ummmm. Interesting. Between the man hammering spikes up his nose, putting out blow torches in his mouth, and the people being generally skanky. We had a great time. Sleeping on couches is fun.

As I said in another thread, it looks like music played _way_ too big a role in this party for me to have enjoyed myself.

But it’s great that you all had such a good time.

I didn’t play a single song, and I had a great time. Then again, it might have just been all the endorphins from the habañero salsa. Mmmmmmmm.

So I took a few pics but seems that camera only remebered three of them. Must be something with the memory chip on low batteries.  
DOn’t you just hate technology.

It’s easy to view the SF DOPEFEST HOLIDAY ALBUM. Just a picture of SNOOOOOPY and Jack Batty…Sal and… my friend.

There were tons more people I swear…these are just the favorites? NOPE…other pictures to post… Let me know.
