Last summer, I undertook the same journey, which totaled 10 and a half hours including breaks and dinner. This year Eric has generously offered to host, which means the audience will be treated to a projector viewing of the whole thing.
So, all those willing, get rested, get your geek on, bring some food or beverage to help out the cause. Bring some cash cause it's likely we will all just order some pizza half way through. Eric and myself will take care of the rest. Any questions, you know how to reach me.
Eric's is located at Landmark on the Lake, 1660 N Prospect.
As they have many times in the past, Scott and Perry will be opening up their 15th floor Landmark pad to the party-going masses. This time around, it's time to dress proper. Like a real posh motherfucker. Be there for drinks, pool, and misc. action in suits and dresses!
Every year Carrie and Angela throw an impressive turkey day pot luck party, and there is no escape. This year, as always, contribute a dish or a six-pack and sample many other tasty home-made action.
This year the festivities will take place at Nate's house. There is a big yard, and a big fire is planned. So dress warm if it's cold, and bring something to burn if you are so inclined. Email Carrie with what you are bringing, so we don't end up with 10 pumpkin pies!
Once again the only holiday I recognize will be heavily celebrated by Matty-J and his costumed crew. Be there or be hella-square. There will be candy (!), alcohol (!), soda (!), snacks (!), music (!), and lots of cool people that you already know, or wish you did!
The MICE are doing it Halloween style. It's been 2 years since the last "slutty" Halloween party, hosted by Ian and Michelle. Since we have secured a swinging party track record, and Halloween is the single greatest holiday that ever was, we're looking forward to breaking all the rules.
All are invited, and all are welcome to bring their friends. As with all MICE gatherings, there will be snacks, alcohol, and some sort of insane original candy concoction by Ian and myself. Contributions are always appreciated. Costumes are strongly recommended. Slutty costumes are strongly rewarded.

Seems like just yesterday we inaugurated the new MICE Haus with a monster-size housewarming party. Well, no reason to stop there. For our second outing, we are clearing the furniture for a dancing-only upbeat jamathon. If you dance, come. If you don't, come, drink, and then dance. Think of it as several hours of intense aerobics with alcohol.
