I’m writing a small story. I was motivated by reading something my brother wrote. I haven’t done enough writing in awhile (aside from posting here). I am partially basing it on some personalities here on the Dope (in an affectionate tone of course 
). It’s just something silly about how too many people, myself included, have leaned too much on the internet for socialization.
ETA: In other word, I may be here all night.
you will let us read it, right?
Depends if I like it. It is a sarcastic satire of AA, social ineptitude, people who won’t move out of their parent’s places, internet dating, and prostitution.
Also, I don’t want to get put in the corner again for another 30 days.
Will post story when I sober up.

Good Morning!
Ok, so to update on last nights’ dinner, we did indeed go to Sunrise. I ended up with the very, very messy and *extremely * garlicy Greek Spaghetti. I’d have to say that it was just OK. I think that it’s a good base idea for a recipe, but I’d have to change a few things like penne rigate instead of linguine and cooked garlic instead of raw. Also, some grilled chicken would have been a nice touch. After that we were supposed to go to the grocery store, but I was too tired.
Well, beebs, I still live with my parents. Or, rather, I moved back in with them after I sold my house and decided to join the Peace Corps. And now I own my own business and can’t afford to move out on my own yet. So I’m just going to assume that I don’t count as one of your stereotypes. Right?
Oh yeah, and Squeeeeeeeeee!!!
Good morning, afternoon, etc to all. Am off to work. I remember sugarbaby, just didn’t put the 2 together!
Keep the MMP tidy whilst I am gone.
off to work again.
: pours beer cans, potato chip crumbs and pet hair on the MMP :
::steps through random detritus and squee bits::
Note to self: Must not read anymore of the ghost thread.
Do you wash those down with an esquimalt?
There’s a Canadian railroad called the Nanaimo & Esquimalt. Do I win the prize for the nerdiest and most obscure pun of the week?
Are you pregnant? 
<Adds **doggio ** to *The List * for making such a mess.>
Good morning! I actually slept in till about 6:30 - that’s almost 2 hours later than I usually sleep, so yay! Then I took the doggies out, fed the menagerie, and got back into bed to watch TV while **FCD ** snored, but once I’m up, I’m up. So I’m up and caffeinating. We’re supposed to get rain this afternoon and into tomorrow. Which means I need to suck up leaves early if I’m gonna do that. Still thinkin’…
Tomorrow’s trek to my sister’s has been cancelled - pretty much no one could make it, including my mom, whose b-day party it was to be. So yay - no driving! And frankly, since we’re all gathering next Sat for another sister’s 25th anniversary, well, that’s too much family togetherness for one week, and a buttload of driving for us. So yay.
I need to dig out my caffeine mugs - this afternoon, I’m going to be selling 2 of them to the girl I met at the last craft show. And I’ll be meeting her near Staples, where **FCD ** needs to get something, so 2 chores in one, and I get money. Let’s add another yay! 
And not to be forgotten - yay and squeeeeeeeeeeeee for new kitty!
And for those keeping the jeans master list, **FCD ** likes Wranglers, but he also wears Rustlers, 'cause they’re cheap. I wear Riders, 'cause they’re sorta cheap, and I just can’t bring myself to spend lots of money on jeans. Even tho the pricier ones might fit better and last longer… Don’t try to reason with me. Actually, I’d like to find someone who makes jeans in other colors - I used to have burgundy and brown and green jeans. Now I have blue and black, and one last pair of khaki. I suppose I could Google, ya think?
So begins my day. I want breakfast. I need a shower. I suppose I need to get my butt in gear. Happy Saturday, all!
Frak, it’s cold this morning. Stole a space heater, and am currently defrosting.
Will edit, then post my stupid thing, though I’m sure it will sink like a stone just like my “best of 2007” thread.
And Pie, if you take my words seriously to take offense at any of the things I mentioned, you haven’t known me long enough.
Happy weekend all.
How can you hate FCM of all people for getting the first of the page?
Sigh… almost.
Oh, I know, beebs, you’re just being you. It’s ok. Just wanting to defend my ‘honor’ against the stereotype that prevails.
beebs, how can you hate me under any circumstances? *I’m nice, dammit! * And I wasn’t aiming for the top of the page - sometimes stuff just happens.
Besides, I’m way too mature and sophisticated to get all hopped up about something as trivial as having the first post on the page. I’s got couth and class up to here [sup]----[/sup] and then some. There are too many things in life way more important than the location of my post on a page. I mean, really…
Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’ here. Actually I was up at five-thirty cause I had to pee but I went back to bed and slept a couple more hours. It’s quiet in da cave this mornin’. Just lil’ ol’ me.
Today Ima get a haircut. I think. I need to. Depends on whether or not I motivate. Well, I am meetin’ ol’ y’all know who for N.O.L. around eleven-thirtyish, so I could go get a haircut before then. Maybe after more caffienation.
MBG since I had pizza last night that meant you were supposed to cook but I see you failed in that. Oh, and if’n I were gonna get me a cat it’d be a Maine Coon cause they’re cats that sorta act like dogs.
Later Y’all!
You could e-mail it to one of us to look at before you post… I won’t have much time I’ll have on the net today, but maybe tomorrow (I’ll be at Heathrow for four hours or so and at O’Hare for about 3 (assuming everything’s running on time…), so I may actually pay to get to the Web in one place or the other.
Not sure if I’ll get back here before tomorrow, so happy weekend, everyone!

Morning, mumpers. Up and caffeinating. Not much to talk about yet.
Afternoon mumpers! Will somebody please explain to me how it’s possible to feel this icky and not be dead yet? I didn’t make it to work yesterday and have spent today alternately coughing, sneezing, blowing snot everywhere and moping round the house looking for sympathy. The cats are nowhere to be seen, and 'im indoors has gone to get a haircut. No signs of sympathy there then.
Of course, I have to go and visit the doting parent tomorrow too and her last email said she’d got A List so that means I can’t really cancel on her. Especially not as one of the things on her list is to take some flowers to the crematorium for their peace garden - it’s the anniversary of my dad’s death and the remembrance book will be open on his page so I know how much she wants to go.
In other news, I’m putting in a very late vote for Boo Scaries. Can I be godmum?
'im indoors had to take Shadow to the vet yesterday because the scab on his shoulder was still bleeding and in fact turned out to be a lot worse than we’d thought. He now has a huge shaved patch on his side, a week of antibiotics, and a plastic cone for his head. Poor thing can’t work out what’s going on and I must admit to some guilty giggling last night as he was wandering around downstairs bumping into things. I had to take the collar off this morning so he could have some food and he was very reluctant for it to go back on again. I can’t find him anywhere so I guess he’s hiding behind the sofa again.
Talking of sofas, that’s where I should be…
