What?  
Le Sang’s not here yet? I know for a fact he’s out of bed which means he should be on the boards, as a true Doper. I think he’s slowing down, the old fart.

I, however, am very up for some hedonism!

I have feathers, a couple of lava lamps, and the hot tub from mrblue’s birthday thread. Can I join in?

TO would be Toronto in Ontario in Canada which is somewhere north of you I would suspect.

And for the record, I have nothing against public transportation sex, I just prefer it to be MUTUAL.

Plus, he was really gross. I mean REALLY gross. Really. Ew.

Hey Medea! Welcome.

Well, LeSang’s seen me hiss and growl a lot… (Not at him though!) I get kinda territorial about my Doper. All these uppity wimmins, trying to garner his favor, ya know? 😉

Careful with the feathers, could be a sticky mess, what with the peanut butter, honey and all…

Ooo Toronto. If I’m not mistaken, my favorite Canuk Doper, [Kilgore Trout](http://www.geocities.com/sdpeoplepages/kilgore_trout.html) is from Toronto. But I’ve been wrong before. Kilgore is amazing.

Well, I should hope not! How else are we going to create more buses, trains and taxis?

Awwww, Rasa. C’mere and let me rub your fanny. No harm meant, just being my usual snarky self.

Besides, I won’t be here after 400p EST, so I expect perfection NOW!

I’m outta here.

Ok Ok I’m back.  
Too early in the morning. can’t think of proper words.

I’m just going to sit in the corner nursing a T&T. Come on over if you need me for anything.

For anything? Really? Can I have that in writing? Cuz I’m kind of trying to plan this major move and could use some help with it…

And hey, don’t be stingy with the T&T’s, all I’ll drink is gin!

Absolutely. You’re coming out on, what was it you said again? Oh right, the 18th.

Hands Rasa a T&T.  
Hands her another.  
One more.  
Last one.

So, 18th, right?

it’s a day that starts with T - well, not this time, but usually. This of course means that I have the schedule from hell… damn classes.

Anyway, I have come - and not a moment too soon from the looks of it.

Drunken debauchery! YES!!!

somebody pass the ferret… 😉

4 T&T’s? Sweetie, if I drink 4 of them, I won’t be doing much of anything. I’m but a wee slip of a lass, and not hardened to the firewater like you.

And what is this 18th of November of which you speak? I think you made that up. Along with your fake name for my town, and your baseless insistence that I have a Rhode Island accent. _shudder_

Now if you pardon me, I must go start a welcome thread for your co-conspirator.

You said anything. I’m holding you to that.

Someone must say it. Allow me to be the first

“I **will not** pass you the ferret”

And Rasa, you can run from the truth, but you can’t hide. Or is it the other way around. Oh well. Anyway, we all know that your moving out to SF now. So don’t bother trying to deny it.

And I’m up for drunken debauchery. Want to help me dye my hair?

Classes, LeSang? We don’t need no steenkin’ classes! Glad you could make it. Maybe tonight debauchery will not be interrupted by the Great Server Outage of '00 like last night. Relax after your day from hell. I hear ya–my Tuesdays and Thursdays used to be like that.

Medea, can we dye it fun colors like purple and green? That might be fun…

And scratchie. Denial is a river in Egypt. Can we visit it when we go to India? Please do your best to stay away from the ferret, I’m still defending your ass (quite literally) all over this board!

Where’s Zyzzyva?

Nymysy has a date, she’s at a concert, may stop in later.
