life - couch warming

so i'm not sure if i am going to follow through with this, but i would really like to throw a couch warming party.

"a couch what?!" you say. a couch warming, like an apartment or house warming, but for a couch instead. see i moved into my place back in november. it's now march. it's been a bit too long to have a party welcoming myself and my friends to my new apartment. but i will be receiving my couch in two weeks time, so i can have a couch warming, welcoming it and my friends to my apartment.

yeah, i know i'm weird. but i'm working on an idea for an invite. and i still haven't had my friends over (i don't have anywhere for them to sit). plus it's my birthday in a week, so all these circumstances have converged making it an ideal time to have a party.

not that i know how to throw a "grown-up" party. no kegs. no drinking games. no crazy crashers or police. not that i threw those kind of parties in college, but those were the only parties i attended. my thought for a grown-up party is to supply one type of booze (wine or whatever) and lots of food (so people are less likely to make drunken asses of themselves) and invite all the lovely professional people i know now (and a few crazy hold-outs for my college days). sounds like a good time could be had by all. now if only i can convince them to head all the way out to my neighborhood.
