I realized yesterday, when someone talked a bit about their Mad Men screening party in the comments of yesterday’s “How Was Everyone’s Day” post, that I have NOT YET been invited to a Mad Men season premiere party. What gives? What am I supposed to do, watch it at my own home with just one or two friends, or whatever? Wearing plainclothes?! I don’t even have the ingredients for an Old Fashioned or a Blue Hawaiian! What am I supposed to do, buy them myself?! With what, my own money?! And what, put them in my own glasses that I have at my house?! And then what, drink them on my own couch?!!? Give me a break! Anyway Matthew Weiner talked to USA Today about where we last left Don — at a bar being asked if he was alone — and he gave us a tiny, bite-sized spoiler (the kind you’d find at a party), via Vulture:

“We will answer that question, because I always felt like Don not answering that question was me telling the audience he doesn’t know,” Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner says. “Is he physically alone? Yeah. Is he sexually available? Maybe. But is he alone? He was not alone when he was with Megan that year.”

“I always think ‘Here we go again’ is kind of the human condition. For Don, he has never confronted what made him marry that woman or what makes him do anything. To me, the theme of the season is, people will do anything to avoid anxiety,” Weiner says. “Don’s not going to be seeing a shrink — that’s a spoiler alert — but he is in a state of anxiety, and that marriage, at least last year, really alleviated some of it.”

SPOILER RECEIVED & FILED WITHIN BRAIN. We only have one more weekday to get in all the spoilers we can before the premiere! And we only have two more days + the rest of the day to run all of the errands we need to run for our Mad Men premiere parties! Picking up Blue Hawaiian ingredients, getting our suits from the dry cleaners, mailing out the last of the invitations, etc.! LET’S GET TO IT, GUYS, TIME’S RUNNING OUT!
