Everybody’s Working on the Weekend


Written on May 5, 2008 at 12:33 pm, by Amelia

Now, I know the kids these days often use their Friday nights for wooing their sweethearts and going to the disco, but here at the Wren’s Nest, we have bigger and better things to do.

Specifically, host a great and totally confusing (for us) concert! Woot!

(Theresa Hightower, doing what she does best: singing about thinly veiled sexual euphemisms! Dentist’s drill, anyone?)

Friday night the Wren’s Nest hosted (totally awesome) Theresa Hightower to kick off the West End Tour of Homes. We used our splendid amphitheater and guests brought their own food and drink, which made things pretty easy on our end.

In fact, we had so little responsibility, we actually had no idea what was going on. Luckily, there was wine, so we quickly got over our worry and had a grand old time. Like these people:

Or these people, including Board Chair-to-be Janice:

Or even these people, featuring recently-blogged-about West End Developer Suna Om (she gave me her card!):

Frankly, a good time was had by all and the only downside was that we had to lie and say our bathroom was out of order.

Sometimes people forget that port-o-lets are not just for decoration. And yes, while you really have to go, we really need to not have people trying to bust into the museum. Sigh.

Part 2 of our weekend adventures coming tomorrow!

Until then, you can tide yourself over with pictures on the Wren’s Nest’s facebook page! (Not a fan of the Wren’s Nest yet? Don’t talk to us. You sicken me. Err, become one today!)

    Looks like the concert went so well! I’m so glad and thanks for putting the pictures up. Hopefully I’ll get to make it to the next one. And I am so jealous of Amelia – I wanted that crown! ;)

  2. [...] you get to bring your own dinner, which means macaroni covered in cheese dip for me!  Check out last year’s fun here- sadly, no cheese dip photos [...]
