August Party
I am thinking of having a party Saturday night on August 18 since my birthday is around that time. I will probably be giving out prizes instead of receiving them so it won't seem totally self serving and, well giving them out is probably going to be more fun for me than getting stuff.
With it being August I can do stuff in my backyard as well as in the house. This opens up the possibilities of outdoor pavilions with ice and drinks and things, and basically clears the house a bit.
That said, I am looking at a party with open invite that has a theme that will minimize the costuming, or at least the layers. Since it will likely be hot and humid having a theme were people don't have to wear much is good. Lots of cold drinks are good as well. Maybe some way to cool down like a slip and slide since I don't have general air conditioning.
So what is a good summer theme that's fun and won't be too geeky to drive away people?
