Deviant Dining

Tonight was Deviant Dining at the Lounge, our pot luck, dinner event for our members and their guests. It's a social happening that we have run monthly without fail since we opened three years and two months ago.

Twenty eight people came out for by far the most superior meal ever compiled at this event. The food was all such amazing quality and in such grand quantities -- I was stuffed. Everyone attending went out of their way to either make something original or they stopped for yummy take out.

Doors open at 6:30 and dinner is served at 7. So most people are on their way home by 8:30. When 9 rolled around people were still sitting around lost in deep conversation that by the time they all left it was a 3 hour meal.

Thanks to everyone who came out to dine, to talk and to be social.

Every event that happens at the Lounge is an "opportunity".

An opportunity to be known, to be seen, to be introduced, to be asked, to invite, to check him out, to check her out, to gain confidence, to not be alone, to be a part of something, to conspire, to expand your horizons, to see something new, to move your boundaries, to face yourself, to be you, to be known.

Unless you give the Lounge a try, you'll just never know for yourself why it is so special to so many people.
