So, were having a Valentine's party, yes. I know some believe that Valentine's is a commercial holiday with no real meaning and that's true. It is, but that doesn't mean we can't exploit that and party like it's 1999. If we didn't, then I'd be out of a job, and no one wants me walking around broke...in Keds and second hand underwear. Trust me. I miss Ehren, yall. Make him come back. I wonder if I can get him to still come to the party. Seeing him bust his ass while break dancing is usually the highlight of the evening. Sigh.
The party will be on Friday, February 13th. (Spooky right? I know.) The festivities will start at 9pm, so I suggest you partake in dinner before, obviously. We'll have a beautiful dessert bar with various, delicious treats and coffees, but the crowning glory is the two chocolate fountains (white and milk). Yes, please try not to OD on it. I'm looking at you, Mike.
The party will be held at Stone Rose Lounge , which has a nice dancing space, plenty of comfy seating, and an open bar until midnight. Also, they're letting us use their Make-Your-Own-Margarita bar! Of course, there will be an actual bartender present, should you need help, but come on. What's the fun in that? The lounge is located at 10 Columbus Circle, and has a banging view of Central Park and the city from the 4th floor of the Time Warner Center . Contact me if you need directions.
Lastly, we'll be holding a very special drawing during the party. Now, this can happen one of two ways, and how it'll happen will depend on you wonderful people. There will be 6 "date packages" up for grabs, meaning various packages for 2 participants, redeemable anytime between the 14th and March 30th. Ideally, I would like some volunteers to pair themselves with said packages to make them more appealing and FUN for everyone involved. There is no ticket price, so anyone who wants their name in the drawing is welcome to submit it that night. It's just a treat for you guys, because you're all so wonderful and because Emilie is no longer here to plague our souls and remind us of how desperate and ugly we are. Okay?
So, I need 3 boys and 3 girls to take one for the team. Keep in mind that these are not romantic obligations and are just for fun. The dates aren't awkward romantic type situations, I assure you, and are good opportunities to do something fun and get to know a random co-worker. If I don't get any takers, we'll just raffle off the dates as they are, and whoever wins them can choose their own partner, etc. etc.
Time for a recap!
When: Friday, February 13th, 2008 ...wtf? 2009 @ 9pm
Where: Stone Rose Lounge, 10 Columbus Circle, 4th floor of the Time Warner Center.
What: PARTAY. Drinks, dancing, Date Raffle, Dessert Bar, Make-Your-Own-Margarita, and Cupid might make an appearance.
Dress Code: NICE-ISH. I won't say casual, but wear what you want, as long as it's not riddled with holes and mustard stains. I like cliché, so I'm going to encourage you to wear red, white or pink.
Sound good? Yes, no, maybe? I'd like to know your thoughts on this, of course, since it's for you. So, questions, concerns, complaints can all be laid down here, please.
With candy hearts and artificial love,
♥ Lena♥
