06/06/06 UPDATE:
THE BARN PARTY HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
BREAD AND MUSH WILL BE OUT OF TOWN.
WE’LL HAVE A PARTY WHEN WE GET BACK, WE PROMISE. SORRY!
————————————————————–

In which the party is officially announced!

We’ll be having a barn party on Saturday, June 17th. Be there or be somewhere else!

WHY YOU SHOULD COME:

  • There might be a keg. Or two.
  • You can BBQ. Bring your own grillables! (Bring a side dish to share, too, if you’re able.)
  • Live music! We present the following bands: House 11. Maybe the Jefferson County Green Band, I haven’t asked ’em yet.
  • Bonfire! (You can bring something to burn. We prefer couches and very dry Christmas trees.)
  • Camping! (Don’t drive drunk! Pitch a tent, stay the night. We’ll figure something out for breakfast when the time comes.)
  • Swimming!
  • Fishing, even!
  • Free parking!

WHO IS INVITED:

  • You! You can come.
  • You can also come if you’re a canine, but you will probably get absolutely lousy with ticks and fleas as the little fuckers are everywhere this spring, but you will have too much fun to notice mere parasites. Please don’t come if you’re an uncut male, though.
  • You can come if you are not a human nor a canine, but a chicken. You may get eaten by a canine, though, so watch out!
  • You can come if you are a minor, but you can’t drink. (Minors who arrive already drunk will absolutely piss me off to no end, and will probably find themselves forcibly denied the keys to their vehicles until they are horrifically, awfully, totally stone cold sober.)
  • You can come if you are not a human nor a canine nor a chicken, but I’m not sure we’ll have appropriate refreshment for your species. So do as we do: pack it in, pack it out! We hope you like live music! (But any fusion bottles or gravity generators you happen to leave lying around we’ll keep. By the way, we’d really appreciate it if you could refrain from eating the humans and/or the canines, at least during the live music anyway.)

WHERE:

  • Driving directions from 2nd & Burlington in Fairfield to our place. Call if you get lost.

    Damn, can’t make it either…

    Something to think about, at your wedding you had some bozo deep frying a turkey. The fryer, filled with boiling oil, was just sitting on 3 spindley legs right there next to the road with little kids, happy dogs and drunk adults zipping in and out right by it since it was placed in a pathway!

    I kept seeing oil scalded kids with a lifetime of pain in their future so I forced the guy to at least block off the pathway a little. Pls do me a favor and keep everyone safe and away from this type of stupidity. Even the drunks. Thx.

    Luv ya and hey, make a tape of your performance why don’tcha?

    No children or dogs were hideously maimed by boiling oil in the making of this blog. 😉 (No one fried a turkey at my wedding! He was a lawyer, a father, and he was making tempura. There won’t be any frying at this party. And yes, I’ll try to vid the jam for ya, dad.) -m

    damn! i wish i could come. curse my sense of duty and classes that i have to pass. alas i shall have a midterm the week following and no $$ to get there anyway. otherwise i’d fly down in a nonce.

    *sigh* i miss all the fun.

    But you have to come! You’re the only married Candadian lesbian I know! 😉 -m

    Well a lawyer and a father should have been less of a dink. There were little kids running around the fryer most of the time. Freaked me out…that’s why I didn’t remember it was tempura…whatever that is. (Fried fish?).

    Battered fried veggies and fish, yes. -m
