Its the eye of the tiger
What is this?
Just a blurry cell phone picture of white elephant awesomeness.
Tom Hipps has his annual Single’s Christams Shindig this weekend. As always, there were lots of musicians and wanna be musicians jamming in the basement. I even took the mic, and started the night with a heartwarming rendition of Mele Kalikimaka and then after a cocktail or two ended the night by rocking a duet with Tom Hipps himself to “Pour Some Sugar on Me” (Craig Larson owned the drums)
Pretty much everyone took a turn on the mic or on an instrument, or the very least danced and sang along from behind the bar. Even my roommate stayed until 3:30 in the morning and took a turn singing. (She also busted out the hip hop moves) which is saying a lot.
Good times. Good times.
And the best part of the night? The white elephant gift exchange, were Alf and a bust of Abe Lincoln (”Oh look, a cute little boy”) were the hot commodities. Well that and the three and a half foot painted ceramic Tiger, which I graciously stole from Brit, even though she begged me not to and said she was going to bring it to school so her students could have a pet. She stole it from Bill L, and I wanted it bad and stole it from her. Tom Hipps begged me to keep it at his house, and only let me leave after I promised I would bring it to all parties and we would share custody.
And you know, tis the season.
