Swanky Mansion Party

On Saturday night, Linzy and I went to Brenden's Swanky Mansion Party. It was a good time.

The party was at Brenden's godparent's mansion (which he was house-sitting) and we were all supposed to get dressed up in fancy clothes and bring an 'unclassy drink' to share. I protested the dress-code aspect by wearing my 1970s suit, but most of the other people were into it.

We basically just hung out in the super fancy house, talking, playing pool, playing games and having fun. Quite a few people showed up, some that I hadn't seen since September and others where it's been much, much longer.

I have a good time, even if we did have to leave earlier then I would have liked since I had to work on Sunday. Read on for a few pictures, if you'd like.

Me in my all brown 1970s suit, with the unclassy beverage we brought: Schlitz Malt Liquor.

Thad and Rebecca brought Zima XXX (along with an Old E 40oz) as their unclassy beverage. Here Kaari and Suzanne are demonstrating how to drink Zima that tastes like it's already been flavored with a Jolly Rancher.


Brenden, Chey and Magnus


[ Updated 1/10: Added Kaari and Suzanne's names rather then calling them 'Brenden's Friends'. Sorry about that. ]

The two classy ladies with the Zima XXX are Kaari and Suzanne.

Updated. I was pretty sure about their names, but I went with the safe method so I didn't get them wrong.

I am sure they would have been insulted. You know, with them being so upscale and swanky and all.

Glad you had a good time. I was glad you guys came. And not only for the SoCo and the Guitar Hero. :)
