cool… I’ve been termed a “buddy” 
Excellent!
so are we gonna get a speech or not?
A drink would be great. Whatever you’re having.
Oh, and of course it’s a pleasure to meet all your buddies. You had me distracted there…
Well, I’ve been drinking cider, but I’m about to bust out the martini glasses. Now that you’re here I can start having fun.
I mean, jeez, I’ve spent all this time chasing you down, I better enjoy it now that you’re here.
Sure you’re not SCULPTING with your date, Nym? Hmm? We’re on to you…
Uh, I didn’t know there was a party goin on here, I just wanted to say hi to Nymysys.
Man thats a lot of yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy’s .
Say is that 151?
So just how many people have you chased down Nym?
Martini sounds great. Gin, please.
And again, my humble apologies for taking so long to get here. I hope I can make it up to you.
Doesn’t matter. That was then. This is now.
Hey! Let’s not bring up the sculpting thing, k? I’m on a roll here! And dammit, FDWTFUN, I haven’t chased ANYBODY other than Anamorphic. I’ve BEEN chased, but I’ve not CHASED! Chasee, not chaser. Got it?
Damn you people! Making me look bad here!
Heya, imthjckaz, glad you could make it. Ignore the bloody puddle in the corner. It USED to be Rasa, but then I had to get wu-tang on her ass.
Now, where were we, Anamorphic? Ah yes, dry or extra-dry martini? Tell me about yourself. I’m curious.
Sounds kinky.
Musta done a good job.
Extra dry, please. Thank you.
Tell you about myself? Well, you already know I’m a writer and all that. The whole starving artist thing we talked about. To be honest, I’m not starving this particular month. Hope that doesn’t matter too much to you. There’s a chance I might be starving next month, if this damn job doesn’t get off the ground. I had Chinese food for dinner. So not starving.
Hmm, what else? I turned 30 a few days ago. People keep asking me if turning 30 freaks me out. Nah. 75 will weird me out a bit, but 30 is no big deal.
What else would you like to know?
Hey Nym. Lay off Rasa. I’m protecting your honor. But, lay off Rasa.
30 is a good age. I’m looking forward to 30 myself. I seem to only continue to get better with age.
Hrmm…what else? Married? Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound? Willing to visit Chicago often? Do you have IRC? Do you like spicy food and red meat? Got anything against actresses? How tall are you?
This is fun. I like quid pro quo!
But, but, but…but I LOVE Rasa. She’s just cramping my style. Sigh.
<mutter> Oh, sure. She can pick on ME, hiss at ME. I can’t even bust out a little wu-tang. <mutter, mutter>
Sorry, Rasa. sniff
Nope. Currently single. You?
I’ll have to get back to you on this one. For you, I’ll try it and let you know.
Sure!
Indeed I do.
Hell, I even like spicy red meat.
Nope. Some of my best friends are actresses.
5’6". Too short? How tall are you?
Okay, my turn, my turn! Favorite band? Favorite film? Author? Are you one of these people who hates Los Angeles? What’s with the ‘sculpture’ references? And how does one get their very own welcome thread?
Single, yes. On IRC currently. You’re not too short. I’m about 5’3" myself, although I do have a fondness for platform heels. “Favorite” anything is hard. Music: A3, jazz (especially Miles Davis), Stereolab, Los Lobos, Portishead, Paul Simon…uh…others. Authors are tough, too. I read voraciously and would have much more furniture if it weren’t for all the damn bookcases. Fiction and non. No mysteries, love stories or crap like that. I do still read Stephen King, though. I can’t believe I admitted that in public. Sheesh. I kinda do hate LA, but haven’t spent that much time there. I’m sure it has positive points. Maybe if I had the right tour guide… Let’s just bypass the sculpture reference, okay? Do you want your own welcome thread? If I open one that only means I’ll have to start swimming through the throngs to get to you. I’m not sure how I feel about that.
Uh…okay. Longest relationship? Do you like dogs? How many fingers am I holding up? Do you like getting dressed up and doing the town as much as sitting at home wearing sweats eating ice cream? Do you wear good shoes?
Longest relationship: 3 years. I love dogs; growing up, we always had dogs. I miss them. I want to get a golden retriever, but I’m going to wait until I can move from this apartment to a house. Why, you’re holding up two fingers, of course. Yes, I love getting dressed up and hitting the town, and I also enjoy spending quiet time at home. These days, I think I might possibly enjoy the quiet time at home a hair more, but not by much and that could change at any time. Shoes… er, my shoes could probably use a little work. Perhaps we could go shoe shopping?
Hmmm. Everyone else seems to have left the thread. Or do you feel like we’re being watched?
:: pokes head shyly around corner of door::
Ummm… shucks - I know I am new here and all - but I just wanted to come and see what all the noise is about - and was wondering if I could join your party for a short while??
::holds up bottle of tequila:: I bring my own drinks.
