I used to go to parties around that high school/post military phase, but.....bleh.....it got old
Now, parties center around the Holidays with family. I was never one to act out, but in either case, for me it was about drifting between clumps of people to talk and laugh. I was never much for any type of insanity you generally watch the drunk and stoopid get up to.....I'd like to think I was more about intelligent humor and enjoying a good laugh with those I was talking with at the moment.
