<\/p>\nMy BFF Stephanie has been having fun with Photoshop again.\u00a0 Remember last week, when I told you one of my Facebook friends updated her “about me” to read “a nicer, younger, cooler version of Martha Stewart”?\u00a0 Well, said friend had a tea party last Sunday in Cordova, and thanks to the magic of Photoshop, I “attended” the tea.<\/p>\n

Wow, that’s a nice necklace I have on!\u00a0 Just to clear up any misconception, I wasn’t there.\u00a0 I have dozens of witnesses that I was downtown that afternoon, attending a birthday party for my friend Lee at the Saucer.\u00a0 Then I went to Barton Flats, where I ate some delicious venison and played Texas Hold ‘Em.\u00a0 Then I went and saw the Dempseys at Huey’s.\u00a0 Then I went to Hoop’s new place.\u00a0 A very fun day, and it definitely didn’t include a tea party.<\/p>\n
Last night I heard that the Silly Goose, the new bar opening in the former Swig location, will open December 31.\u00a0 That’s certainly an interesting decision, to make New Year’s Eve its first night.\u00a0 Not necessarily a bad move either, as there will be overflow from other parties in the area.\u00a0 Looking forward to giving the Goose a try, but it won’t be until 2009.\u00a0 I’m very much looking forward to the party in South Main I’m attending to kick off the new year.<\/p>\n
