Next time we invite you to Thanksgiving, you should totally come! Of course, if anyone else had come to our house this time, you would have had to sit on the floor, because as we now know, a quantity of people greater than 10 sorely taxes our household supply of chairs, even with the four folding chairs we bought rented from Staples. We've never had a party where anyone sat down before! It was extra awesome because enough people came that we had two days' worth of leftovers, instead of two weeks. Last year it got to the point where the smell of leftover lamb wafting out of the refrigerator at me was enough to make me gag.

Thanksgiving dinner for 10! Sometimes I'm impressed by us.

I'm burning copies of the Greatest Mix CD of All Time tonight. It's tentatively entitled GET THE CLAP, unless I come up with something both more awesome and (maybe) less gross before I start sending them out. Let me know if you want one and you aren't already on the list to get one, because everybody needs to listen to more songs with handclapping in them.
