Punki & I, missydarling and gregseattle waited expectantly for our guest,
Matt Wald, to arrive. As we waited, we tried to figure out who the "mystery guests" would be. Eventually, after many cellphone calls,
Matt and baraboodish arrived, then
peregine showed up with his girlfriend,
Clarity and her brother,
Asa, and the mystery continued.......until we saw the
chexmobile fly by so fast that we couldn't determine who was in the car. Soon, we were in the embrace of
chex, techgirl and auh20 who had flown up from LAX to surprise us.

Since all the bodies crammed into the small private room at the original restaurant was creating too much heat, we retired to the newer air-conditioned restaurant across the street where the karaoke beckoned. A good time was had by
all . I suppose that the party continued after we retired for the night.
