Come on Churbs, you know we'd wait for you. You're just that awesome.
And that's the problem! You can't delay a party like that! It's horribly rude, the only solution is more parties.
And a party cannon.
See, you just think of my little pony, but I think how awesome it would be to pack an actual cannon with glitter and confetti.
Wouldn't that be a charred mess? I guess you could use an air cannon.
Along with the idea of an air cannon, you could use a traditional cannon simply by putting a light bit of wadding behind the confetti/glitter mix, or for the less safe option, a very light cup sabot. Naturally, you'd only use a light gunpowder charge, you want the confetti over the party, not the three streets surrounding.
This party is the prisoners dilemma of parties. If everyone commits to it, then it would likely be the best party ever. However, if no one commits, then it will never happen.
Problem is, it's as much that as it is a catch 22: in order for people to commit, a majority of everyone else would have to commit.
Well, I live right down the street, so there's one person.
You're obvious. You hate my crazy roommate just as much or more than I do. It wouldn't be a "She's finally gone!" party without you. And that failing, you're also the one who got me on the forums, so you're sort of obligatory either way.
I now have this distinct image of Ryan and I sitting on the floor of crazy roommate's room drinking together with a laptop sitting in front of us skyping the forumites in. I have low life expectations, maybe. But I do think a big get-together/party would be awesome.
I wish I could be in the place you guys are (North Carolina?), at least for a little while. I like it up here, but we'd all have such a good time hanging out.

Better yet, get a bunch of laptops, fullscreen each person's face on each one, and dress the computers up in party hats.
11 resumes given, a good handful of neat companies interested. One startup said they're not hiring co-ops right now, but they were impressed enough by me to give me a business card and bug them when I'm near graduation.

When I swing by your way, we shall party it up. You may not believe in your party, but believe in me, who believes in your wicked party.
I got a job interview on Tuesday working in an archive service. Ok the money isn't great but it is better than what I'm on now, since I work in a Supermarket. It is in an area that I want to work and is related to history. If I get it, it will help massively with getting on the course to become an fully fledged archivist.

That's it. We're doing that next Petefest.
I see no flaw in this plan.

Oh, and I have an interview with Cisco tomorrow.
