once a month, kelly simants of sweet pea events organizes a gathering of some of the funnest party people in the dfw metroplex. she calls it thursday therapy. i call it an excuse to drink on the company dime. this month, it took place in uptown at dish restaurant and lounge. kelly asked me to bring my camera to snap a few shots so i took the opportunity to try a little something different i call “slow motion.”  (you camera geeks can probably figure it out)
