Jay's barbecue - disinvited


The barbecue is on and is all very exciting, or I should say was exciting.  We had lots of fun talking about decorations around pool, inviting neighbors who live kind of far away since Jay lives in the middle of a forest. And also about food and local caterers who plan to help.

The mood was celebratory.

It was exciting visiting the most famous listening room in the country, and because I was having trouble containing my excitement I accidentally spilled an entire glass of merlot wine on a new carpet. And earlier I recommended putting a couch along the wall which would've overlapped the acoustic panels and possibly putting a few pieces of furniture in the room since space seems kind of open. It's a really large room. I sensed a mood change.

Was it the wine? Was it my taste in furniture? Was it related to my concern about types of music that that would be played at the barbecue? 

It's a mystery. Things did not go well that afternoon and consequently, I will not be invited to the barbecue.

What an amazing journey and I'm sorry I will not be able to visit and experience all the incredibly expensive and wonderful audio components that will be featured. That's OK.  Thank God for you tube.

for those future visitors, please let me know if he was able to get the stain out of the carpet. Maybe now he'll consider buying a couch which will hide the stain.

I have heard through the audio grapevine that as a fall celebration Jay will be hosting a crab boil.  It will include all the fixins’ such as potato’s, corn, sausage and the like.

While it is true that emerginsoul has been dis-invited to the BBQ, there is an excellent chance that he will receive an invitation to the boil.  As a seafood event white wine will obviously be served so there is little chance of another mishap of spillage.

Music will be all Zydeco pumping through both new listening spaces.  Surely a grand time will be had by all.

I'm hopeful this all comes to fruition and bygones can be bygones, as the pain of a red wine stain and thoughtful, although unwelcome decorating tips fade.
