Tough Choices

What to do tonight?

The Affiliated or Adam's Birthday Party or both.

The Affiliated is always fun. Renew friendships, find out what people are up to, have a few laughs and maybe a fight will break out. But campaigning and endorsing are not allowed. Will it be fun?

If I go to Adam's Birthday party, I could rub elbows with the big shots. Maybe I could get in good with them, get appointed to something. Maybe someone will call bloggers terrorists. Get to see Peter's beautiful home and get decorating ideas. But it will set me back $500 if I bring my spouse.

Both will be fodder for great blogging material. But if I go to the birthday party early, they will know where I'm going when I leave, and talk about me. If I get to the birthday party late, they will know where I've been.

Maybe I'll go to Washington with Tommy DeSeno, but then I'd miss Sean Kean's Salute the Winners fundraiser on Sunday.

I know where I'll be Monday night. Anna Little's fundraiser at Shore Casino in Atlantic Highlands. There might be real news made there, and its only $50 ($100 if I bring my spouse). No grab bag at Anna's!
