my warm shed

What do you do right after you move into a new home you're very proud of? You throw a great big housewarming party in it with all your friends!

Well, that's exactly what I did; I threw a shedwarming party. The invitation my friends received went something like this:

"I hereby request the honor of your presence at the warming of the new Long's residence.

Please approach the shed by entering the gate on the LEFT side of the house. Walk through the gate about 15 yards and then take a right and walk for another 15 yards. My place has no address label, but it's the white one that is 64 square feet, 1 bed, 0 bath. ..."

it was a wild party complete with legwrestling matches
(these are my awesome neighbors Mark & Daniel)

Oh yeah, for memories' sake, and to add to the hilarity of the event: this was Sept. 12; the night Hurricane Ike was supposed to blow through Austin! I sent out a reminder to my guests earlier that day:

Rain or shine,
we've got spine.
Hurricane or no,
the party's a go!

(We didn't even get a drop of rain.) Thanks to all of you for thoroughly warming my shed!
