**Idle Thoughts** – I salute you. Brilliantly played.

**Official Guess: Idle Thoughts has to use the last two words of the previous post as the first two words of his post.**

So, **featherlou** – that wasn’t a compliment? Silly me.

What’s the last silly misunderstanding you had?

I vote any kind but fruitcake. I’d cast a good solid vote for some yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Or maybe a strawberry shortcake.

I’m rather fond of devil’s food Cake. So… dark, rich… so enticing. It is like heaven on my tongue. Yumyum. No huge sugary decoration, though… they’re over-kill.

Make sure that we have some icecream as well. We can’t have cake with no icecream. That, my good friend, is just evil. Make sure it is mint flavored! Vanillas and Chocolates just ain’t as good.

**Blaster Master** , I must say, you’re really pissing me off here, 'cause I’m not seeing a freaking thing.

Tell me a story about the last time you lost your temper.

Don’t be pissed with me. Diomedes is most culpable, he handed me my oddity. 😃

Anyway, last time I’d lost my temper, forgoing my lack of cake… hmm… in at work. My damned boss, always annoying me to sign my timesheets. No concerns of my work, if I’m okay, or if I’m fulfilling my duties… nope… only making sure they bill me. It is only with regard to “Almighty Dollar”. That is everything I’d gotten from them in an entire week. Well, no more; I’d show them! My volume raised, standing tall… voices bellowed throughout my office, echoed from cold hard concrete wall. Argument ensued, my word flew like shot, he… like cannon fodder. My effort… naught, as then I’d lose my employment… sigh.

Mayhap that explains my foul mood… yeah, that is it. It is because I’m unemployed as of Thursday. Then, to finish me temper… no bloody cake here.

ARGH!

{FWIW, before anyone gets concerns, that tale is untrue. Purely fictious.}

P.S. This post is within my guidelines. 🙂

_pouts_ I already told you that I’d never taunt you. Don’t you believe me? ☹ You think I would _lie_ to you?

Maybe I should go hang out with **Khadaji** or **sturmhauke** or someone if that’s what you think of me. _sniffs_

Um…yeah…that’s exactly why I voted _against_ having any. I can start speaking a little more  
loudly  
if you’re having trouble hearing me.
