notmattHappy New Year, everyone! Today we breakfasted on the Traditional* New Year's Belgian Waffles, I cooked the Traditional* New Year's Beef Stroganoff for dinner, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kathleenroberts did the Traditional* New Year's Varnishing of the Bar, I made a feeble attempt at the Traditional* New Year's Straightening up of the Office, and we did the Traditional* New Year's Playing with the Baby whilst watching the Traditional* New Year's MythBusters Marathon.
We've now been here nearly two months. I finally have office furniture and a Linux workstation at work now. However, we have not yet had any kind of housewarming party. In fact we've seen very few people since moving out here. We sawstormcat once right after we moved here, and she was good enough to provide us with a Bebe Pod for David to use. The Matt that I am Not recently popped by, and we briefly saw kittenchan and vond and Callie last week and met a few more for dinner, but that's been it. December was slammed as usual as will be next week, but we may correct that.
We were thinking the 17th might be a good day. That's the Saturday after David turns 6 months old, so it would also be a half-birthday party for him. Not that he'd appreciate it.
So is 17 January good or are other things happening then? I have kept track of little in the way of social events lately, due to our limited ability to participate.
Better for me to ask:
Who would come on that day?
Who would come on a different day?
Other details:
We are in Columbia, MD.
Some sort of food will be provided. We might do a potluck. We'll figure it out.
Party would probably be in the afternoon rather than the evening.
However, we have crash space if anyone wants to crash (guest room w/ queen, den w/ queen sleeper sofa, stupid amounts of floor space elsewhere).
* Denotes traditions started this year.
