New Year's Eve plans
Dec. 31st, 2005 05:30 pmOnce again, we're doing the Richland Center radio triviathon. RC is a little town about 20 miles from here (where maxchaos lives) and they ask questions over the radio, and you have about 5 mintues to call in with your answer. You have to register as a team and it's a real point of pride for some reason. Well, I know what the reason is: you get no prizes whatsoever, but doing well in it carries a certain amount of delirious pride. You're soooo excited when you get those questions, and last year we were #10! Only our second year.
For the 3rd year in a row, our team is Hogwarts Faculty Lounge.
Last year, the computer was in another room from where people where listening to the radio and eating (and you use the computer quite a bit), so I felt separated from the rest of the action. But the woman who hosted last year has got that flu and her computer didn't boot up today; plus, she's got that flu. She sounds awful, poor thing. So I volunteered our house. Once again, mda & I got things together really nicely. He made chili & mulled apple cider; I made these roll-ups with tortillas, hummus, lettuce & carrots. Messy, but they look to be good. It's at times like these that I realize what a great team we make.
People will start arriving in 15 minutes. We'll go until at least midnight.
Then tomorrow we go to the fabulous wi_c & jujupees' house!! Where I'll get to see jaaladay & her family!! I love it.
Good new year's to you all, and I hope you have a good night and stay safe. I've got to grate cheese.
Thanks to all you LJers for reading my posts and always being a damned fine group of people.
