Karen & Jhayne's tres cool house warming rent party potluck movie night!

[foxtongue]

Why go go to several parties, when you could come to this one?

To celebrate the joy that is having a sane and compatible roommate, we are inviting you to come and partake of Heima, the recent Sigur Ros movie, TONIGHT.

Doors at seven, movie at eight, questionable party games, anytime.

Food welcome, also donations, as oh noes, I'm being bilked by a software jerk who doesn't want to pay for writing because "that isn't real work anyway."* If you're worried you're going to be coming over too late, don't. Just call.

BYO-anything you like.

I realize that with the snow, travel is suddenly a bit of an issue. I hope you find it within yourself to come out anyway, as it's nice to have company to make cold nights cozy. For those worried about getting stuck, we have plenty of crash space and blankets.


*I had a verbal agreement with someone to do three pages of technical writing for them, now they're saying they don't have to pay, just in time for rent. My favourite quote "think of it as a contribution to your community". I've posted what happened to the technical writing forum I collected the job from, and have sent him a very legal e-mail stating that the written work remains my property until he pays me for it. Unless I catch him, though, I'm pretty sure the point is moot.

Name 'em and shame 'em, probably the best thing to do.

What else is there to do, really?

[robbat2.livejournal.com]

- legal action (costly)
- sending friends to break his kneecaps

I'm actually looking forwards to stomping about in the snow some. XD

I'm hoping for an excuse to do some of that myself.

I would love to attend but physio has to come first.

Having to stand outside my work for 30 min this morning b/c everyone is late and they wont give me a key, causes my hip to hurt from the cold. I'll be asking the physiotherapist to torture me.

Aw. Poor kitten.. *warm tea* I hope you hurt in all the right ways when they're done with you.

Oh! Was this the adorable drunk girl that was with us when we watched the last Price is Right at kindelingboy's place? Or rather, we were watching *something* there...

No, that was Susan, I think, though I got there late.

I had actually planned to stop in this evening, until a throat bug decided to pay me a visit instead. I'm sure your kind invitation didn't extend to my germs, and so they and I will wish you a cool warm house from afar.

I do want to talk to you sometime about those thar photography packages, though.

I do understand. Several people seem to be down with various contagions this week. I'm sorry to hear they got you too.

And yes, anytime. I don't get sick, me.

Any software guy who can't do his own gods-bedamned technical writing had better bloody well learn to pay for it. "Not real work" my arse.

(Speaking as someone who's a software engineer for a living, for what it's worth.)
