Silver Fire - sorry if I maligned you or anyone else based on faulty information! You can of course understand my (and my roommate’s) initial reaction of :eek: when we thought…

Oh, heck, how else are we supposed to get really good rumors started? :o Hugs all around, and so sorry.

I’m up at the Ass-Crack of Dawn, I just sent Pixellent off in a cab to Midway, probably won’t get to see him til Thanksgiving. ☹ We spent yesterday at the film festival - if any of you Chicago residents get a chance to go to the remaining movies, do it! So far I’ve seen Kwik Stop and a series of shorts called Reel Shorts II: Mondo Insano that had some mediocre stuff, some AMAZING editing, and some genuinely funny, interesting shorts. Tonight it’s Baran and tomorrow it’s Truly Human. I am a film fest whore.

Hugs and more hugs all around.

More, non hungover updates 🙂

I want to adopt **Nymdawg**.

Everyone was so frigging funny, **Ino** especially.

I still have a hickey on my arm from **JoeyHemlock** , **Quix** grabbed my boobs, **tigg** licked me, and I spent a lot of time in **Dyno’s** lap.

And I managed not to fall down **Nym’s** stairs, even in my Stevie Nicks shoes or as **thinksnow** said, those are some TALL shoes.

[sub]And I made the quote book! Whoo hoo[/sub]

**Mags** Thanks a bunch. You are a most gracious hostess. I had a great time Saturday!

It was great to meet (again) all of you.

Sounds like I too left just a little too early. Alas, maybe next time. (There will be a next time, won’t there?)

Wait a minute. I get groped by **Silver Fire** , get to grope **Silver Fire** and **Tiggeril** , get tongue-kissed by **quix** , and took a coupla hits of dope with **Silver Fire** (hey, it _was_ a dopefest), and all I get is a mention about snoring?

\<growls\>

Well, you have my number. 😉

And like I think I said, I wasn’t dead asleep. I had to let a bunch of drunken, kilt-wearing Scotsmen back in my apartment at 5am. They left their keys in their other kilts.

I just found out that they tried to climb up my fire escape and in through my window before they called me. That probably would not have been a good idea, as I have a tendency to attack people who break into my bedroom in the middle of the night.

I need about a week to recover from the last three days. If you think _you_ guys worked hard…😃

Yes, **Miss Creant** , guys notice complexion. But your boobs are magnificent, too. Stupendous, actually. And that is from WAY back at the LAST ChiDope, I have no recent exposure to them to check for any increase in their perfection.

And likes you still, which is the REALLY odd part.

I would like to go forward, now that I’m awake, and say how much I enjoyed meeting all the new people. New to me, anyway. Other than the aforementioned **lno,** Mag’s boy, **Pixellent** was wonderful, **Miss Creant** was a laugh riot and I really, really, REALLY wish I remembered being mean to **LifeOnWry** so that I could apologize. Looking around it seems everyone had a wonderful time. Even the lurkers who came out of the woodwork. 🙂

All in all, it was a truly great ChiDope. Nym is well pleased.

I actually don’t know any of those. A google search didn’t help, either. 😉

I really don’t mean to be hijacking your thread. But I do resemble the remark that I am not a troglodyte. 😃

OMG. She thought I was serious. Nym, honey, I was kidding. It was a vague reference to a thread in which you teased me for being afraid to come to a ChiDope and I said you had your maxi-pad on upside down. Now I am all embarassed.

Just to state for the record, it’s Andy GARCIA! I have no clue who Andy Green is, what size he comes in, or what we could do if he exchanged his size for another.

I have so few crushes, can’t we keep them straight, people?

And **UB**? How badly do you want me to come to OhDope NOW??!!

Yeah, it was pretty quiet. In the sense that we didn’t violate any noise control laws. Oh, it’s my understanding that you’re in Ohio, UncleBeer. How come you weren’t there? Hmmmm?

**Joey Hemlock** would like to thank:  
[ul][li]Magdalene: For the hospitality, the lasagna, and the not kicking me out when I dissed the Mexicans.[/li][li]Magda’s roommate Michelle: For the creamy-crab-on-english-muffin stuff. I’d love the recipe.[/li][li]Nymmy: for the hospitality and kisses, and for having sex with me in Jen’s bathroom (just kidding… _or AM I?_). I hate it when you _heart_ other people, but I know that deep down you _heart_ me best.[/li][li]chique: for the blanket. I would have been a JoeySicle![/li][li]quixy: for the best kiss a man could hope for[/li][li]boli: for letting me kiss her repeatedly and warning me about the dangers of thongs.[/li][li]dyno: for not dropping the organ on me (that is not a sexual innuendo (_or IS IT?_))?[/li][li]VileOrb: for letting me drink one of his Negra Modelo’s and for keeping my nose booger free. Repeatedly.[/li][li]hardygrrl: for letting me suck her arm and for helping me drink my tequila. (WAIT, SHE DRANK MY TEQUILA!)[/li][li]Silver Fire: for making me laugh in the rain. I’ve never got so wet being around a girl before (_or HAVE I?_).[/li][li]The Herradura Distillery: for making tequila that is so damned tasty![/li][li]Life On Wry: For recognizing my spinach-tearing SKILLZ![/li][li]Superdude: just for being there.[/li][li]tiggeril: For being tiggeril. I loves me some tiggeril.[/li][li]thinksnow: For being, ummmmmm, tall (_or IS HE?_).[/li][li]Miss Creant: For helping my hair look its best.[/li][li]porcupine: For showing off the cleavage yet again.[/li][/ul]

That leaves **lno**. He sucks, and I hate him. He _totally_ bogarted the Nymmy. He is, however, a sexy hunk of man (_or IS HE?_).
