I am 22 today. I know you’re all tired from celebrating GaWd’s birthday yesterday, and then getting up for Sealemon’s today, along with Jack Batty and Jean Grey, and that you want to rest up before ChiefScott’s tomorrow, and if you also post at Fathom, that you have had to also include Highlander and Claudia’s yesterday, but please try to make some time for me. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go work at a convenience store until 11:00 on a Friday night, in celebration. Yeah, celebration, that’s it. ---

Well, happy birthday, whippersnapper! To celebrate your birthday, I suggest that at odd moments tonight you go back to the cooler and switch bottles around in the bottle 6-packs and see whether anybody notices they’ve got 3 Buds and 3 Fruitopias. ---

Wow, four whole responses. Boy do I feel loved around here. Oh, and Duck Duck, in Massachusetts, convenience stores generally don’t sell alcohol. Why? Just because Massachusetts is dumb. ---
