Wow. Some people really know how to throw a party.
I'm not one for parties much, usually I find myself getting drunk in a corner by myself, feeling uncomfortable around a ton of people I don't know.
But this party.....woah.
The weirdest thing is, the guy that threw the party, Tony, is the executive chef at the Oneida country club. This is a man who got offered a job in the Hamptons, Fiji, Austrailia. People who know people know him. You'd think he'd be an arrogant prick. But no.....he's one of the nicest guys i've ever met.
He has this beautiful house with a ravine in the backyard that he and his wife built a staircase down, complete with landings and a bridge over a small creek. He set up a permanent stage at the bottom, where he has bands play for his parties. There is a marshy swamp in back of the stage about fifty yards or so away, and there was mist rising off of it as the band played and the sun set, it was AMAZING.
He opened his wine cellar. Pretty much everyone was walking around with a bottle. We're not talking about three dollar bottles of Boone's Farm, either. We're talking Spanish and French wine - mine was a Spanish cabernet from '88. Yeah.
There were around a hundred or so people there, most of them I knew. Everyone had so much fun. I got there at five and didn't leave until around three thirty or so.
Yeah, there was naked hot tubbing involved.
I get to have my birthday party there in august. Well, it's actually going to be a joint party, since Tony's birthday is nine days after mine, but it's going to be pretty damn awesome. Sloppy Joe is playing, and the chefs are cooking, and it's gonna be pretty damn amazing.
You should come, I'll invite you!
Go ahead, ask me three questions. I promise I'll answer.
