Final Saturday was probably the most enjoyable nights of my grownup life, and right here’s why…
My buddy Alison invited 15 mates to rejoice her husband Zach’s birthday. The venue? A Thai restaurant that doubles as a karaoke bar.
Alison additionally introduced NINE wigs. At first, I hesitated, however she defined the genius logic: “Zach is obsessive about the concept of how wigs provide you with confidence. Karaoke scares lots of people, however with a wig you grow to be a distinct individual and really feel braver than you usually would.”
AND OMG THEY WERE RIGHT. You know the way a celebration normally takes an hour or two to heat up? For individuals to get settled and begin mingling? For the vitality to select up? Effectively, this video was taken 15 MINUTES after the occasion began. Everybody was already unhinged.
Each time I hear the Backstreet Boys’ music “I Need It That Means,” I consider the Brooklyn 9-9 chilly open.
Our buddy Aaron (on the left) was once in a band, so truthfully his performances have been UNFAIR. You’re purported to be dangerous at karaoke! That’s the entire level!
Lastly, right here’s the birthday cake Alison introduced. Jet black, ornate, with simply two phrases: “you’ve aged.”
What’s your karaoke music? (Among the showstoppers final weekend have been: Earlier than He Cheats, Kiss Me, Child Bought Again, and Candy Caroline.) And Alison’s wig technique made me chuckle a lot, however I’m now a disciple.
P.S. 5 issues I observed at a drinks occasion, learn how to host a cookie swap, and are you a celebration host or an enthusiastic visitor?
