Name Attending? Hotel on Saturday?  
BunnyGirl yes yes  
Miss Creant yes yes  
jarbabyj yes yes

I dunno what I’m doing. My mom is arriving on Saturday, which means I might get an early start with you girls on Saturday but leave early to fetch her. Or it might mean I’ll come up late after she arrives and possibly spend the night after all!

Gotta figure out her flight arrangements first.

First the bad news. Unfortunately, due to an extreme financial situation, I won’t be able to go to Frankenmuth. And I really wanted to go Playstation game shopping with you too Blue.🙂

Now the good news. Same situation does not keep me from attending the Friday night festivities. Since they’re going to be held in my town anyway, it should be no problem. Just let me know when any definite plans are made for Friday night.

No go ☹

As much as I wanted to tell manhattan about that odd dream in person, I have spent WAY too much money over here, and upon my return need to get my car outta hock.

Have I mentioned I’ve spent WAY too much money over here?

Anyhow…y’all have a good time. [sub]sniff[/sub]

Did I mention that I’m in line for a big promotion and raise, and that I’ll be bringing a fully-charged Mastercard? And that as a true patriot, I’m feel morally compelled to help the economy as President Bush has instructed us?

manhattan, perhaps you’d like my sizes now so you can warm up a little at Saks & Cartier?

Well, I think that’s up for debate. You’re going to be shopping with throngs of women, and you publicly admit you’re feeling spendy?

Oh wait, you’re single, aren’t you? Well, you’re no dummy after all!

And have I told you how great that tie goes with your eyes?

**manny** my love, you are aware that I am looking for a sugar daddy, are you not?

And I get to drive him around all weekend. Who wants to be my bestest friend? 😃

:quickly starts looking for a place to hide his cash and credit cards:

Ah yes… I knew that hidden moneybelt would come in handy again.

No Playstation shopping? Rats. Well, as long as we hit a bookstore I’ll be satisfied… But you aren’t going to lead poor innocent me into some lingerie store, are you? Two guys amongst a gaggle of Doper Chicks picking out underwear?

:turns red:

Hey, I’m pure as the driven snow. Wait. Is “driven snow” the grey crunchy stuff that cars have compacted into an ice pack? Then I guess I’m not that.

Then I’m as pure as the morning dew. Wait. Doesn’t the dew wash pesticides off the crops? Nope.

How about a mountain stream… hey, what’s with those empty beer cans?

_sigh_

Damn it, I’m pure! 😃

Yea, I know you want the rock I took from the top of Pike’s Peak. [sub](Ooops, that was probably illegal, wasn’t it?)[/sub] Hell, all you Doper chicks ever want to do is jump me and grab my rock. You’re all just too fascinated by volcanic formations that once spewed hot magma in a wild frenzy.

Speaking of frenzy, I think I see **dlgirl** coming…

**manny** may I take the time to point out that I personally have always repected you for your intellect, your wisdom, your strength of character, and the big, strong, warm, pulsating moderator hat you have??? 😃
