Housekeeping This Week in Party Crasher
Posted by Paul Constant on Sun, Dec 21, 2008 at 3:16 PM
This week in Party Crasher, Visual Art intern John Borges goes to a bad sweater party.
It's snowing, my wet shoes are threatening to freeze, and my Plus One is already drunk. I dial the wrong call-box number but she lets us up anyway (Ballardites are friendly in the cold), and we arrive at the "Cheesy Sweater Christmas Party" promised by our Evite.Introductions turn the unwelcoming glares into smiles, and I quickly learn that bad-sweater wearers from Ballard love The Stranger: "It has just the right amount of news!" It won't be easy to fly below the radar here. My Plus One understands that's not the point and commences yelling loudly and eating all the dip.
Do they get out alive and unswaddled in acrylic Christmas nastiness? Go read and find out.
