So last night was an unexpected excursion out. After a topsy/turvy 24 hours filled with bad chinese food, teleconferences, and a lop-sided pool table, I certainly did not expect to be going out on this hump day. Paula, however, can be a very persuasive cousin sometimes. Not only that, but upon discovering that Laura and her bro Felipe we going to be at Kona as well, it was a no-brainer to meet up. Surprisingly, we ran into a few other people at the Galleria as well. It turns out that Rich from TGIF in Sugarland is bartending there now. (awesome!) Also, Jay-R, Tony, Sara, and a few others I haven’t seen in ages we there as well so it was cool catching up with them. After a few drinks/conversations, we headed downtown to Rich’s (haven’t been there since the old thursday deals like 100 years ago) for the Yippy Kya Launch Party. It’s amazing to me that a small social networking startup would throw a huge red carpet event like this. I thought facebook, myspace, frienster, etc. had that entire niche covered. I guess there’s enough dollars to go around… Anyways. Pictures.
