The launch was a smashing success and as was the employee all hands and the company meeting. The most memorable event was actually the party at Wim's at 11.30pm after the company meeting. Wim invited a bunch of people to his home to celebrate as John left on his jet. About 40-50 people showed up. I went to the kitchen and saw Kate in her robe. She was sleepy-eyed and apparently Wim told her he would invite a few people over for drinks and so many showed up. She had nothing in the fridge. I ran home to pick up the Tostito chips Brooke brought from Costco, lots of microwave popcorn, salami, ham and cheese which I just bought the day before. I also picked up all the leftovers from our fridge plus all the bread I could find. Kate and I chopped up all the apples we had (to feed the vegetarians), we had left over pizza, chicken wings, pasta...etc.
People continue to pour in as more people texted others to join. At the end we were completely out of food, alcohol and even water! It was a really nice evening though - we were all so happy the launch was successful and it was so fun to collaborate with so many people to do this. I was the last to leave and helped Wim to move all the glasses and plates into the kitchen.
