EDIT: From now on, all updates about the party can be found here.
Hi kids. The Man Friend kindly pointed out the slight issue of where y'all were going to sleep after this shindig is all said and done because Drew is kind enough to offer us a field, but crashing at his place is NOT an option. Dan's parents MIGHT be up for it but I've yet to speak to Dan about the issue so DO NOT QUOTE ME ON THAT.
Another option is camping it and I've already contacted Christina Jo to see if borrowing her seven man tent is an option (I can't imagine that it wouldn't be). If anyone else knows anyone who owns a tent/has one themselves, I would love to borrow it for the occassion. With regards to the seven man tent, I guess the first seven people who ask me about it get it?
ALSO, this party is BOYB and Knox County is a D-R-Y county. While it is perfectly legal to drink inside county limits, you cannot purchase alcohol within those same county limits so either buy it here and bring it up or buy it at some pit stop on the way up. (Yes, I realize I've previously stated that there would already be beer there but that beer will be lovingly provided by you because I can only afford so much and the Man Friend is generous but even that is too much for him. So, sorry and if that changes your status then you are totally lame and if not, you are totally cool and rock on.)
LIST OF THINGS TO CONSIDER:
- Do you have a tent? Do you know someone with a tent? Do you have a sleeping bag? BRING THEM!!!
- Buy your beer here and bring it with you.
- I will be driving up after work on Saturday (I get off at 3:30 and will be leaving sometime Sunday late afternoon if someone wants to ride with me).
- If you have a folding chair, BRING IT! The real draw of this party is Dan and the burning of a couch. We're pretty much going to hang out and watch things light on fire. I wouldn't burn smores on this fire seeing how it is a couch but maybe we can provide something else like that. Also, another draw for you city slickers is the fact that you can see every freaking star in the sky. Trust me on this. It made it very difficult to walk up the hill last time because I was too busy checking out the Milky Way.
Seriously folks, if this is too much of a pain, I understand but it is for Dan and I feel way more comfortable asking it of all of you FOR HIM than I would if it were any other person. At the same time, I still want enough people interested to make this worth our while to pull it all together so just tell me you're still interested/absolutely for sure coming come hell or high water/or if this is just a bit too much for you and you're going to kindly back out.
That's it for now. There will, without a doubt, be another update later but I will try to warn you about it via Facebook.

I would love to go but seeing that I am 500+ miles away I must kindly back out. (Yeah, I know I'm not invited but you would let me go too, would't you? And it's not just because I have access to 3 tents and a plethora of kegs.....it's good to be me.)
Have fun and PLEASE be careful. (Man Friend look after her, she has a hard time with stairs, or walking, when she has had a few.)
Love you!
Thanks Simon/Rusty/Man Friend. Take lotsa drunk pictures of her because I can never collect enough. They are like trading baseball cards. You only find out how valuable they are when you start trading them.
Since the other blog won't let me comment, I'll post here: we will need to bring FOOD. I imagine we'll all be a bit hungry after a 3 hour car ride. I just wanted to throw that out there, even if it is a little last minute.
