On the Party Circuit

Tonight was big Miami party night. There was the Ocean Drive Dwayne Wade shindig at Mokai, Florida International mag's soirée at the Acqualina and Miami Fashion Week's kickoff. I went with Florida Intl. mag and it was pretty darn sweet. Despite the fact that there were hurricane-level winds on the outdoor patio, everyone seemed to be having a grand time. Two open bars (Grey Goose thankyouverymuch!) , plenty of risotto rice balls courtesy of Il Mulino and a lobby-load of Miami's fabulosity. I'm thinking of starting a new term here, McSocialite. What do you think? It covers a lot of what I saw tonight, the super-functional high alcohol tolerant fashionable survival-of-the-fittest type personality. They come in multiples down here and are built to move fast, like aerodynamic party torpedoes.

I have someone coming in from out of town and am thinking of hitting one of the Fashion Week parties on Saturday night. Any suggestions?
