Headsets are cool.

I was worried that you all were bored because everyone was so gracious and chill.

I think they were worried about me for a bit, since I kept talking to ita.

I couldn't help myself though. It's the headset's fault.

Allyson and Kristen, the party really was fantastic. i went in with low expectations because i knew the main cast wouldn't be there because unlike previous years this year was more about seeing the VIPs than it was spending time with friends. just because it's such a new fandom and i haven't really made any lasting friendships with the 'lagers.

Harold coming in the room, pointing at those of us on the dance floor and then joining us was a total highlight for me. then Andrea joined us for a little Love Shack boogeying.

this party was so different from previous PBPs and even the W&HAR. i can't articulate how, but one reason is that i was able to take multiple pics of myself with Harold and DDK. mostly because i looked like a goober in the first ones i took. i would have never been able to do that in previous years.

oh and William Mapother? probably my favorite VIP of the evening. so sweet and funny and very un-Ethan-like. i think Greg Grunberg became every girls new boyfriend. and the hottie security team? guh. jared makes me warm and fuzzy. he was all long haired and scruffy this year. yum.

tiggy! I am so sad we couldn't hang out. One of these days, you need to come to LA just to hang.

I was really pleased with the party. My dream for any of these things is to create the atmosphere of an exclusive Hollywood sort of wrap party. I sort of like blurring the line between the fans and the show folks, so everyone feels like they're partying together.

When ita and the rest of the security team said everyone was playing nice, I knew it was going to be a great experience for the "VIP" people. I think Andrea had a really wonderful time, as a struggling actress, getting treated like a rock star. James Leary always loved that, was also incredibly grateful.

Someone emailed me yesterday and said that he went to W&H and this, and that he will be at everything we do because we make the fans feel special and cared for. Was just the best thing I could have heard.

I have looked at so many of the photos of that party, and Allyson, it was obvious that everyone had a great time. I didn't get the "eek, it is him, squeal, slaver" but the "hi, I enjoy your work and aren't we all having a great time" feel. You (and Maya) are probably getting a reputation of throwing a real party, as opposed to a 'group grope'

Congratulations to yu!

Cool - I hadn't read that Fury was there in any of the press clippings, but nice to see from the photos that he showed up.

Javier Grillo-Marxauch asked me if there was in fact a Hottie Security Team company of sorts. I think ita can make millions on this.

Very probably. Come on, there are valet parking companies in LA that advertise based on their hottitude. Hot security? A slam-dunk. Except that your krav people may be too tired to krav on account of all the sexing-up that would inevitably follow.

I think ita needs to servicemark "Hottie Security Team."

Piece on Fury and his next new jobs.

I think ita needs to servicemark "Hottie Security Team."

Seconded. She should work her mad computer skills into it somewhere too and do high-tech security.
