Party was OK. We just sort of stood around eating and snickering at the occasional drunk white person trying to dance. We didn't know many people there, and the music was really loud, so mingling was not a viable option. Not that I'm the best mingler. How I made it through 3 Rushes is beyond me. I went to Shannon's to get ready, and was strangely unaffected by the presence of her cat, Spencer. So he joins Smokey in the ranks of Cats To Which Kelly Is Not Quite So Allergic. Sorry, Ya-ji.

OK, I'll be taping Charlie Brown. I found out yesterday (whoops!) that our ad agency's Xmas party is tonight. It's apparently a somewhat swank affair w/ great food & drink. I'm wearing the leopard dress that I wore to multiple dances in college (it still fits, woo-hoo!) Until a better offer comes along, I'll probably spend Friday night packing and/or making Xmas treats.

"A Charlie Brown Christmas" is on Thursday night -- woo! It's my favorite holiday special. Anybody want to come over for cookies & hot chocolate & Charlie Brown?
