Yeah, **Merc** , WTF are you thinking?

Anyway, if I eat a bunch of junk food by the fire, and I get fat, you won’t love me anymore.

I’m sure we can find _somewhere_ to get thrashed.

Maybe I should explain the pee thing.

I have this obsessive fear that people pee in my hot tub. It is so bad that I actually drain the thing after every use (unless it has just been me). EEEWWWWWWWWWWWW

Seriously, I can tell just by the look on your face if you are taking a pee, so just beware that I may have to drowned someone if I catch them. 😃

There will be NO jizzing in my room, thank you.  
[sub]unless it’s me doing the jizzing. I hope they have those pay-per-view movies, or it’ll be a long weekend.[/sub]

Watch out for the floaters, they get caught up in the arm hair and they are HELL to get out.

At least that’s what my friend told me.

The floaters DO get stuck on you just like Elmer’s glue!!! Hurts like hell to scrape off.

This has GOT to be the longest pre-party thread EVER.

Is anyone keeping track of the guests? Just how many will there be? (I’m still just a definite maybe.)

**Strainger** I just called and made my reservation and talked to what must have been JDT’s brother.

I told him that I was with your party and he said you didn’t have a reservation for the 20th (the day I’m coming in). I told him you were probably checking in the 19th.

He found you in the computer for the 19th but said that he didn’t know how long you were staying as it didn’t say on the reservation. You may want to call and confirm if you are staying more than one night.

It was realy hard to understand what was going on because he was helping someone else (standing there, evidently) at the same time. I just realized that he never even quoted me a price.

“One bed or two?” WTF, what hotel prices rooms like that? Jesus. Are you guys _absolutely sure_ that no one wants to stay at the Portofino?

I need a drink.
