So, last night was the "friends" going away party for the girls. We decided to have two parties – one for "friends", and one for "family and over-21s", because the girls like margaritas and we told them they could have a couple at the latter party, but we couldn't provide them for anyone else under 21, so they had to have a separate party to say goodbye to them. It was actually really fun, but we did have one pretty hilarious problem.
Now, we aren't stupid. We knew they would probably have alcohol, but we made it pretty clear that the moment we SAW it, it would have to be confiscated. I have sympathy for the kids and all, but legally we are very wary of the rich Lakewood litigious parents should it be known there was alcohol consumed at our house.
David & I stayed outside most of the time, grilling and whatnot. After a couple hours, I went inside to pee – the bathroom is right next to the girls' room, so I couldn't help but see a couple girls sitting on the floor with a bottle of whiskey in front of them! The dude at the door saw me see it and said "Oooooo noooo", and I nodded my head and said "Yup. Sorry. I made it clear if I saw it I have to take it. Hate to be a downer but it must be done." So I picked it up and went back outside to laugh about it with David.
So we're laughing and like SCORE! KENTUCKY DELUXE FOR FREE! when dude at the door comes outside and says, "So I'm 21 and paid for that, can I just have it back?"
Me: "No."
Douchey McDoucherson: "But it's mine."
Me: "But you are on my property dishing it out to minors, so it's mine now."
And so we went back and forth.
Me: "In fact, I WAS happy to take it and have you stay, but now you can get the fuck out."
DMcD: "I will, as soon as you give me my whiskey!"
Me: "Oh, you want this?" /starts pouring it on ground
/David "escorts" dude out.
Awesome! That was so rad!
And I even was able to save a little since I stopped pouring it as soon as Davey walked the dude out.
Other than that, it was a pretty tame party. I sort of think most of their friends are lame.
