HOLIDAY PARTIES!

Woowee. Things are picking up in New York City. There were on average four holiday parties that I was invited to each week in the month of December. But I’ve been a very bad girl and didn’t go to any of them! I know, I know. Coal in my stocking this year. (Well, if I give it enough pressure it could turn into a diamond, right?)

And this year’s line-up:

HWH PR -- http://www.hwhpr.com/PR/HWHinvite/invite.html

Steve Masur and his law offices -- Thursday, December 8th, 6pm - 9pm, D-Lounge, 101 East 15th Street

MOUSE – seeking donations for their annual fund. There’s good karma in that! http://www.mouse.org/annualfund/

NYSIA -- http://www.nysia.org/publications/invites/2005/images/holidayparty.gif

Webgrrls NYC – They have a lot to celebrate this year! They’ve reinvigorated the chapter, renewed the activities, and created some great momentum for 2006. Also, Webgrrls NYC is the first and largest chapter of Webgrrls, started in 1995, by Aliza Sherman (who’s moved onto AMAZING NEW THINGS – [http://www.mediaegg.com/]), and this year is our
10th anniversary! Come and celebrate with us at Gaetana, a charming Italian restaurant in the heart of the West Village. Wednesday, December 7th, 2005, 6:30 - 8:30 PM. http://EventMe.com/Link/zbDbR8gzBaA/0/xHaOb5zEpSU.aspx
