Our annual Halloween party was last night! While the fun and karaoke officially began at 8:00, the Game of Thrones crew and the Fifth Element couple all showed up at 5:30 to start setting up. I think that early start might have hurt me, because I hit the wall early. For the first few hours of the party I was in top form. I was really circulating and talking to everybody. I was looking for anybody I didn't know so I could introduce myself and looking for anybody who seemed to be all alone. I felt like a power hostess. But then suddenly at 11:30 I completely hit the wall and just fell out. I didn't feel like I'd drank too much and I do think I paced myself appropriately, I just hit the wall full force. I missed the last 90 minutes of our signature party of the year. Which really sucked but it was what it was.
Next year I'd like the party to go exactly the same way, except that I last through the end. To make that happen, next year I'll need to remember to train for the party. By training for it, I mean that I will *not* go out and have drinks every night for the 3 nights leading up to the party day (Blame Austin Beer Week!). And on party day I will try to get a nap, and then a big mug of coffee around 6:00 pm. This will be my plan next year so that I have a perfect party experience.
Now for pictures!
