About Us

Hey there, my name is Jill! I’m the author of this site 🙂 While I would love to take credit for the fun idea of “STOMP,” it actually dates back to a tradition my mom started with her friend group in the 1980s.

A secret to nobody, it seems as though the busier life gets, the trickier it can be to find time for your friends. Work, family, distance, and life start creeping in, and before you know it, it’s been months since you last saw the best friend that you used to see everyday.

SO. To help remedy this seemingly pervasive downfall of being an adult, they thought of a creative idea: STOMP. A simple (and fun) acronym to save the date to get together with their friends. Second Tuesday Of the Month Party.

On the second Tuesday of each month, she and her friends would meet up at the local bar together. If you’re free you’re free, if not – then you’ll know exactly when the next meet up will be to block your calendar.

Fast forward to today – I’m carrying on the tradition of STOMP with a couple fun new twists. Given that it tends to be an easier day to accommodate for people’s schedules, we’ve updated Tuesday to Thursday for my friend group (hence: Second Thursday Of (the) Month Party). And while the ease of going to the same bar each month sounds appealing from a planning perspective, I’ve also thrown in a bit more variety between the parties during my reboot.

Feel free to use this site to follow along with our adventures, or find inspiration to start hosting your own!
