NOT QUITE. BWAHAHAHAHA…i have much more to gleen from you my friends, I’ll not be leaving any time soon.

Anyway, I’ve been away for four days…but the love remains. I’ll try to catch up soon, but forgive me if I stumble, I beg of you.

Hmm…I guess I should have clarified BEFORE I left that I was moving last weekend. Perhaps that would have clarified my post.

The booze? Baby, I can’t step away…it’s my lifeblood.

And here I was expecting to find that your short story about the literary agent being stalked and terrorized before suffering a most gruesome violation was finished.

Look, jarbaby, you’ve disappointed Arden…and me, too, come to that.

And unnecessarily excited ChiefScott with that “on my knees” bit. [smiley omitted for reasons of personal safety]

Damn.

Not a very good return to the board I guess. Do I need to be punished? Oh geez, that was too obvious…when in doubt I always go to the submissive sex jokes. :: sucking down half a cigarette :: Look, I’m a little frazzled here. I don’t have cable, my stereo is still in a box, I can’t find the screws for the bookshelves…I’m in a freaking shambles here :: sucking down rest of cigarette :: Arden’s got me on a deadline with this story…cut me some slack!

OK, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have lashed out there.

Tell you what, by the end of the day, I’m going to come up with something great…a real bang up post.

Trust me.

**jarbaby** , relax! You don’t need to impress us with a great post right now! Relax, and get over the move (I think we all know how much moving sucks!)… when the spirit moves you, give us that great post. But don’t force it: it would be wrong…

Now, now, [b[jarbaby\*\*. Don’t be so hard on yourself. It’s just that I’m very much looking forward to reading your work.

As for my favorite Chief, you know it doesn’t really take that much to excite him, which is part of his charm.

As for the punishment, no. You cannot have it, not that way. I know you want it and punishing you by denying the kind of punishment you most want I am punishing you. [sub]It makes sense to _me_[/sub]

Must…refrain…from posting…entire “Grail” convent scene…  
“Naughty Zoot!”

Take it easy, jarbaby. We can wait. At least you’ve got your priorities straight–it sounds like the computer was the first thing out of the box.

It’s gonna be a long week back, you know? Nothing but blow jobs. First, I’ve got all the people who helped me move…then Euty…I assume you’re going to work YOUR name onto the list eventually…

Besides, so many people owe me blowjobs now that have never delivered on them that you’d probably be the one to have to stand in line.

Honey…remember that time you got so drunk you had no idea how you made it home…you knew that some guardian angel must have spirited you home safely?

Modesty prevents me from spilling too many details to the other dopers…but as long as you’re in a debt paying mood…is 7pm a good time for you? 😃

Will you all stop flirting! At **once** please!

[sub] honestly, young people today, there seems to be only one thing on their mind…[/sub]

You should all go and have a long cold shower before you come back to the Boards.

NO! Not **together!** Stop taking your clothes off. Stop this instant!!

Stop flirting…

Hey Jar!  
Where 'bouts in Ravenswood are you? I was at Ashland and Hermitage.

Did the vinyl dress make the move? Since the boys feel it neccessary to kick you when you’re down, I suggest you pull out the vinyl dress, I’ll pull out my leather and we go have a girls night out and torment everyone with a dick.  
I’ll bring the tequilla.

We moved up to Wolcott and Montrose. A sweet little neighborhood, filled with dogs, just like I wanted.

NOW we’re talking. Nothing’s better than married chicks going out and being cock teases. To make it even better I’ll leave my wedding ring at home… so THERE!
