Saturday night preview

If you're like me, you're such a weird, panicky paranoiac, you like to be told in as much detail as possible what to expect before, say, a dance party (that for whatever reason you MUST to go to, otherwise you'd stay home, of course). My fears are sometimes irrational ("What if they aren't serving party-sized mini knishes from Yonah Schimmel's?") and sometimes understandable ("Humans from Earth really bum me out sometimes.").

One way I control this complicated emotional maelstrom I often go through is by throwing my own dance parties. This way, I can serve mini knishes, invite people who don't bum me out, and post a video on my blog that gives an accurate visual* of what the festivities will be like. In this way, I hope to comfort my guests while also ramping up the excitement for the upcoming event. If you're on the fence (you paranoiac!) about going, watch the below video and THEN decide.




*This is not an aurally accurate video though, as, with all due respect to
the O-Jays and their big hit, "Love Train" is not on Saturday's play list.

no apology needed silly, i know your airplane is in the shop and you had no way to launch your body across the U.S.A. to get here! El Mutante was in the house! So was your sister! And no, we were knuckleheads and didn't take pics. Awww.
