so whats your theme???

first off let me say "its the category not the brand" - living in a metro area with lots of families having bar and bat mitzvahs for their delicious off spring you hear during 'your year' -  'so what's your theme?' Your year, year theme...no mention of obnoxious little John  or spoiled Sally...they are the accessory that enables you to through a lavish party for $250K when unemployment is at a. high and you have rented furniture in your living room. Your kid is a sports phenom, or a talented actor or really into magic...thus the theme that you toss to your party planner to coordinate a well orchestrated event at a venue that no one else 'your year' is using and wallah you have a bar/bat mitzvah...oopppssss...i forget isn't the bar/bat mitzvah a religious ceremony that is supposed to take place in temple and don't you live in a secular community so the celebration is really a trumped up reason to try to impress your friends or keep up with pretense...first get a job, second get some furniture and third get a life and if all else fails have a party so that your can invite your friends and thus ensure that you have plans every weekend during your year so that you don't have to have people come to your house, site on rented furniture and feed them since you don't have a steady income...but we all thank you for doing your part to help the economy and giving bloggers such as myself fodder for perpetuating the myth that these are not tough times...but a little humility would be gracious...oh yeah i forgot money can't buy class...so enjoy the party but don't listen to hard because your friends will be talking about you.
