Dear Miss Hollywood,

About a year and a half ago, a dear friend embarked on a prolonged tour of concert halls and basketball stadiums to celebrate her impending retirement from show business. Before she set out on the farewell tour -- which is still underway -- my husband and I threw a lavish retirement party. Now, my friend has announced that she is returning to show business, and has rechristened the ongoing concert series her "Return to Bizness" tour. While I cannot fault my friend for her change of heart, she now expects my husband and I to host a second party welcoming her back to the stage! My husband insists that her request is inappropriate and ungrateful. Might he have a point? Or are we being stingy fuddy-duddies, reluctant to spring for a second caterer?

Yours truly,
All Partied Out
