Oh Pierre, you shouldn't have come...

David and I are hosting a Singin' in the Rain Pajama Party tonight with the boys. Two members of our little cadre admitted (to their regret, perhaps) that they had never seen Singin' In The Rain with Gene Kelley, Donald O'Connor, Debbie Reynolds and Jean Hagen. So we'll talk about boys while having homemade hot cocoa, fruit parfaits, M&M's and individual manicure kits to do our nails - have a slumber party - and of course, watch the 1952 classic musical. I think this borders on the gayest party I've ever hosted.

I just read this post to Greg, and he said, "That is the gayest thing I've ever heard."

Are you going to be Lina or Kathy?

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

I'd say Kathy - but all my friends would say Lina!

"People? I ain't "people! I am a -" (reads from newspaper) "a shimmering, glowing star in the cinema firmament."

I hope you take pictures. It sounds like a lovely party.

Eh, it could be gayer. You could be watching "Auntie Mame."

I want to book my flight back out to California now.

You realize this is my favorite film of all time. Two beloved moments: The elocution lesson by Kathleen Freeman and the beads.

Oh how I wish I could be there.

the sound goes into the flower - along the cord - into the booth - and onto the record. ROLL'EM!

LOL!

I am glad we share this favorite on our lists!

I was wondering... is this part of the "gay agenda" the conservatives keep talking about, and if so, how does this affect Western Civilization as we know it?

[surewood31.livejournal.com]

I believe this is how "casual Fridays" started.

This sounds like so much fun.

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

there will be other parties - the Auntie Mame party will probably come next :)

[wescobear.livejournal.com]

Oh no - the Gay Agenda is a tasteful faux-croc embossed calfskin Filofax.

[tonethbone.livejournal.com]

This is so gay..I'm glad, after reading this, that I'm only part gay

[surewood31.livejournal.com]

hmm, can we inspect the PART to verify it's gayness?

I've always loved the little blue number with matching pumps Miss Reynolds wears in the "Good Morning" number!

[beg1n.livejournal.com]

I don't believe I've seen it all either. I've seen tons of clips, but never in its entirety.

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

you'd be welcome - film at 7pm :) e-me if you are interested!?

[eric-mathgeek.livejournal.com]

One of my favorite movies ever.

"I'm bigger than... Calvin Coolidge! PUT TOGETHER!"

[tinman11201.livejournal.com]

Oh I love that film, I so wish I could be there for your film night!!!!! I'm so jealous!

[tinman11201.livejournal.com]

"People, I ain't people. I am a shimmering star in the cinema firmament! It says so, right here."

[wrascalbc.livejournal.com]

I think it's the gayest party I've ever read about!

[wescobear.livejournal.com]

The only way to possibly make it any gayer would be to invite the entire cast of Project Runway, the gayest show on teevee...

[surewood31.livejournal.com]

Ok, the first time I ever saw that movie was at Movies on the Green in Washington DC. Weird, I had never seen the movie, but I knew the words to a couple of the songs. (?????) I could not believe that was Debbie Reynolds.

[surewood31.livejournal.com]

Wait a second. You can NOT have a pajama party without a PILLOW FIGHT! (Hands low_fat_muffin the pajama party hosting rule book) Right there, paragraph eleven, sub-section three, addendum C. See, right before the freezing of the underwear of the first guy to fall asleep.

[cuboz.livejournal.com]

That IS the gayest party I've ever HEARD of, let alone you've hosted....

I SOOOO wish I could have been there! :-)

[septimuswarren.livejournal.com]

Ummmm...yep, that's pretty gay. I've not seen the movie, either.

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

well - we all know where you stand where musicals are concerned......
