…party season, that is!

Even though I am looking for a new job (and potentially not even in my current field if that’s what it takes) I am once again making the rounds! Yay!

Since working at *current employer* I have been cut off from all the great industry events and vendor parties that go on every year. Last year I didn’t get out to anything!

I’m still not technically getting invited personally to these things, but I have a cool new coworker with connections and he’s flipping me all the invites. Once you have the email you just have to RSVP and you’re on the list.

SO EASY to crash those parties 🙂

So I went to the first one tonight but as you can tell by my timestamp, I left early. Parties are really only good if you have people to hang out with. I met some random dude from Sony Music and we had a nice chit chat, and then I actually ran into a guy I went to college with. I hadn’t seen him in 5 years! He’s doing pretty well for himself so I’m happy for him.

My coworkers were supposed to meet me there tonight, but apparently they got tied up drinking somewhere else before. I didn’t really feel like sticking around (despite the open bar and free snacks!) so I came home. I did manage to score a DVD of Sunshine Cleaning though–me and the roomie are going to check it out tonight.

So, a pretty tame start to the season, but I think it will get better! I’m going to my friend’s BBQ this weekend, and next weekend is my very own tea party. After that I’m sure there will be something else!

I will have to share some of my plans and ideas for the tea party. I’m totally stoked. I just haven’t had a moment to sit down and really hammer things out, so I’m hoping to do it this weekend.
