Party At?

I'll start posting again, right after I watch a few more episodes of Archer. Did I say episodes? I meant seasons. In the meantime, if you've been wondering where the party at, get a load of these upcoming Chicagoland houseplant events:

  1. I'm so glad someone else I know watches Archer! That show is so horribly rude but I love it so! I like the receptionist who likes to be choked.
