misshapes — ...make faces behind Harrison's back Hahaha.

misshapes — 4am back office: The Birthday Girl's got a few in her, but she's certainly not too drunk to...

misshapes — Thomas (Doorman of the Year! Wooo!) taking a break from all the suckas still waiting in line outside.

misshapes — And then goes in for a smooch taboot. (Check out the sneaky nay-sayer slipping in the subtle "fuck you" down at the bottom. Hahah).

misshapes — Susan and me with SmellsGood Gina.

misshapes — Grant and Sarah Harrison.

misshapes — Sarah and uh, a guy who was in town from LA who's in some band.

misshapes — Meredith showing off her pizzanties.

misshapes — Me and the guy from Whatisee.org! I told you this pic would get posted...one day!

misshapes — Greg K coming into the DJ booth to give me the shepard's crook and get me the fuck off the decks after my "Harry Belafonte Stunt."

misshapes — ....PANTYBANDIT! Awwww yeah, lemme hear ya! Check out Scott laughing because he total caught the PantyBandit in action. (PS - I'd be lying if I didn't mention that this photo kind of gives me a boner.)

misshapes — Susan and me.

misshapes — This guy can't believe it!

misshapes — ....awwww, sit. It's DJ HasNoTalent in tha house!

misshapes — Say, wha? Hahah.

misshapes — Grant pointing out a NY Post press clipping about the party. Hahah.

misshapes — Oh yeah, and based on this picture I guess I also played "Hot For Teacher" by VH. (I only know that because it's the only song with a pick-slide hot enough to merit a physcial reenactment).

misshapes — Kim Davis stepping it up a notch...

misshapes — Marjorie and Carol.

misshapes — Susan getting all crazy to some vintage VH.

misshapes — At some point in the night, somebody found this creepy haircutting practice-head and put it on the booth monitor. We named her Lila and she ended up making the rounds.

misshapes — After Audrey was done, Grant and Susan were shocked to see...

misshapes — Lila about to score some birthday-girl action.

misshapes — Tins and Susan.

misshapes — A little Eddie dropped at just the right time can still whip them ladies into a frenzy.

misshapes — ...and showed me how to be a DJ!

misshapes — Afterwards, I headed upstairs to the DJ booth. Me and Audrey (who was DJing before me).

misshapes — What I lacked in technical proficiency, I made up for in balls to tha walls rock the fuck out tracks. Off the top of my head, a few of my choice jizzams of the night were:

Judy is a Punk - Screeching Weasel
I Don't Want to Grow Up - Descendents
Mustapha Dance - The Clash
Gimme Some More - Busta Rhymes
99 Red Balloon - 7 Seconds
Ready Steady Go - Generation X
Ever Fallen in Love - Buzzcocks
Dancing Machine - Jackson 5
Gloria - Laura Brannigan (of course!)
Dance Hall Music - Murder City Devils
Bombshell - Op Ivy
Mona Lisa - Slick Rick
Miss You - Rolling Stones
Rat Fink - Misfits
Maneater - Hall & Oates

and my personal fave...
Jump in the Line - Motherfucking Harry Belafonte

misshapes — Audrey and Greg K.

misshapes — 5:08am: Cat and Sarah closing out the dancefloor.

misshapes — Meredith danced so hard her ass actually burst forth and split the entire ass-seam of her pants. Cat and Sarah lifted the shirt she tied around her waist and contemplated the damage.

misshapes — Me and the Tins.

misshapes — Leigh (trying to make her sexy face but starting to laugh), Greg K, and me being a jerk and yelling about something.

misshapes — And Sarah joined the schweaty danceparty.

misshapes — Schweaty!

misshapes — Meanwhile, back at Misshapes...

misshapes — I ran into Mandy.

misshapes — More of Meredith and Cat's dancefloor action.

misshapes — Around 2am, we headed over to Misshapes

misshapes — Meredith and Cat rub some titties while a newly revitalized Fatty (I told you Sparks works!) is all smiles in the background.

misshapes — Before I'd even gotten a chance to put my point on the dancefloor and prove it, Leigh hand-delivered a fistfulla scotch.

misshapes — Leigh and Sarah.

misshapes — Leigh and Sarah taking a time out.

misshapes — The back office "secret room" at Luke and Leroy!

misshapes — Grant took this glamour shot of Leigh taking a "time out" in the office.

misshapes — Sarah goes for the pour!

misshapes — Grant, Amanda, Fatty (peeking over) and Joanna. (PS - Is it me or are Grant and Joanna making the same exact face in this pic?)

misshapes — Grant and Charlene.

misshapes — The guy was so drunk he couldn't even tell us his name. Sarah thought he was cute and kept suggesting that she take him back to her place. Hahahaha. Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure!

misshapes — In the end, I ended up fishing his wallet out of his pants and looking up his name and address (if memory serves correctly, I think his name was Brice or something like that). Here's Tinny holding his phone to his ear as we took turns calling people in his phone trying to get someone who knew him to confirm his address so we could put him in a cab. (In the end, we were never able to confirm where he lived so we sat him down outside with a bottle of water and went back inside. When I came out an hour later, he was passed out and had pissed his pants and we ended up calling the cops who sent an ambulance for him. Doh!) Anybody know who this guy is?

misshapes — Later that evening, I was standing next to the DJ booth chatting with Sarah when all of a sudden a guy standing next to me full-on passed out while standing up and went down like a bag o' bricks. The bouncer summoned me to help him carry the guy outside and somewhere in the process of trying to lift him up, his pants came down exposing...

misshapes — ...his (kiwi!) underwear.

misshapes — Niki and Sarah again.

misshapes — ...Misshapes!

misshapes — ...THIS clipping is pretty much taped to every bodega's booze cooler in the Lower East Side. I could've been immortalized! Damn.

misshapes — Me getting ready to put my boobies on Sarah.

misshapes — There we go. Thanks.

misshapes — Sarah, Cat (Too bad you think her shirt's a joke) and Meredith. C'mon lizzadies, you can do better than that.

misshapes — Ok, so now it's well after 3am and things are starting to heat up on the dancefloor. After watching Rachel dance dirty with a bunch of other girls for a few songs, Grant couldn't take any more and snuck Rachel over onto a stool in the corner for a...

misshapes — Crazy Amber in the house! Wooo!

misshapes — Karen (enjoying the nameplate from her cake) and her roommate Bridgette - who had just turned up from a comedy show she performs in.

misshapes — Here's the one they ended up using. And now...

misshapes — Awwwwww! Happy Birthday Karen! (Note Sparks colored roof of mouth. Hahah).

misshapes — Sarah kept her occupied upstairs and we managed to sneak up and surprise her!

misshapes — Karen and Carlos.

misshapes — Meredith and Sarah.

misshapes — Grant doing "The Molly."

misshapes — Amber was in full-effect that night. Every time Lawrence would look away, Amber would start dancing all sexy and freaking him from behind without touching him. Do you know how hard it is to dance all fast behind someone without touching them and accidentally giving yourself away? Girl's got skills.

misshapes — Later that night, we headed over to MisShapes to celebrate...

misshapes — Here's Leigh (making a funny face because the music was really loud and she had *no idea* what the woman was saying to her).

misshapes — Me and Lawrence.

misshapes — Okay, back to Misshapes. Here's Grant (earning bonus points for his Rolling Stone shirt prescience) Meredith (making a Mr. Magoo face) and Sarah "Wish She Didn't Have a Boyfriend" Harrison. (Just to clarify - that's me wishing, not her.)

misshapes — ....THIS! Ten minutes of Photoshop magic later, I'd successfully hidden Sarah's identity with a strategically placed "extra can" of Sparks in Karen's hand. Hahahah. While impressed with my skizzills (I mean, you have to admit, it is pretty good), she told me she'd still prefer to run the other one.

misshapes — ...Karen's 23rd birthday! Wooo! I brought her a six-pack of Sparks to help instigate some birthday trouble (more on that later...hehehe). The day after the party, I took all my pics and posted them into a "sneak peek" gallery for Karen (because she assumed, correctly I might add, that it would be "like six months" before I finally got around to posting them here).

Anyway, somehow a photo editor at Rolling Stone saw this pic and wanted to use it for a blurb about Sparks in an upcoming "What's Hot" issue. I was stoked. A day later, she realized that Sarah is an editor at Spin and apparently didn't want to prominently feature and editor from a competitive magazine doing something "hot." She went back through my pics and found another photo of people drinking Sparks that Sarah wasn't in and asked if she could use that instead. "Well, Sarah's not in that photo, but the problem is: I'm not either." (And hey, I wanted to be doing something "hot" in Rolling Stone, ok?) So I asked her, "What if I can figure out a way to hide Sarah?" She was like "I don't even know what you're talking about." That is, until I sent her...

misshapes — ...but Meredith quickly slid over into the driver's seat (or maybe it just looks that way because she's taller?).

misshapes — ...uh-oh! What's going on over here? Looks like Sarah's going in for the smooch...

misshapes — Turns out I had to let him kiss me (but hey he didn't saying anything about me having to kiss him back! Yay, loopholes). So I stood totally frozen with my mouth (and eyes, apparently) wide-open while he frenched me. Hahaha. I look shell-shocked.

misshapes — Betsy and Yelena.

misshapes — After two free rounds, he told me I was going to have to "earn" the third round. "Uh, how do I have to do that?" (nervous laughter).

misshapes — A retardedly wasted Geordon got behind the bar and started pouring us shots of vodka.

misshapes — Luke and LeRoy (the bar) was all decorated like a high school gymnasium during prom.

misshapes — Hey look it's Giorgio and Gianguido! The two guys visiting from Italy that Fatty and I met playing frisbee in the park! We invited them to the prom and they came! (The even got dressed up!) It's nice! I like!

misshapes — What with Pete doing the Humpty dance and all.

misshapes — Sarah singing along on the floor.

misshapes — Tinny got a little misty-eyed during their inaugural dance.

misshapes — Matt Lesser the Hairdresser.

misshapes — I'm shocked ladies. Really. Just shocked.

misshapes — ...the King and Queen of the prom! And the queen is...

misshapes — Another high-schooler who's been partying out of his league.

misshapes — ....Pete! Wooo! Congrats, guys.

misshapes — ...THIS GIRL! (Whose name I don't know!) And the king is...

misshapes — Beth, Jen and Rebecca (of "Bathroom Humper Mystery" fame. Don't ask).

misshapes — Sheal doing her Stalone impression. "Yooooooooo! Adian!" On point!

misshapes — With the dancefloor in riotous full-effect, it was time to announce...

misshapes — Kat and Amber on the dancefloor.

misshapes — Cat, Sarah L, Sarah H, and Meredith.

misshapes — I didn't have a real bowtie (or a real dress shirt, if we're being honest) so I went with an old prom stand-by and just drew a bow tie on a t-shirt with marker. From a few feet away, it almost looked real!

misshapes — Karen giving Sarah's cleavage a little "hot dog in the bun" action. (Sarah's expression makes this pic a serious contender for Photo of the Night).

misshapes — Sarah and Paul.

misshapes — DJ Loveleigh on deck, yo.
