when i got back from christmas, phil (badger - a salt lake friend) picked me up at the airport. on the way back, our conversation went something like this:
me: phil, tori's and my birthdays are within about 3 weeks, so we thought it would be fun to do a joint birthday thing.
phil: a party? (surprised tone of voice) are you sure?
me: why not? just inviting a few friends from the ward or something.
phil: who would come?
gee, thanks, phil. just because we're not as social enough to have a nickname in the ward (mr. sketchy grad student), doesn't mean we know no one. after receiving that vote of confidence, we decided to do it.
we made a little facebook invitation, invited (nearly) everyone whose name we knew from the ward, and crossed our fingers that phil might be wrong. and...he was!
our little party was a definite success. chocolate cake waffles and pizzelles, and then had quite a few guests! we loved it. in fact, we've already started planning our next party. just wait for that one phil.
