what an excellent entry! i'm not a fan of theme parties, myself. but i think that's because i just feel damn goofy, rather than lazy or anything else. it's just too embarrassing. but i really love the question of whether these people's looks are a lifestyle choice or a costume.
also, i looooove porch sitting on summer nights.
and what a slam for the 30ish comment. strangely, i'm SO glad to be near 30. so much more comfortable around the "old folks" - i wonder what that says about me? certainly i'm turning more dorkish, but i'm so glad to not have to front with a cool hipness any more. that's too much stressful work.
