That’s only because you know better. You have spent far too much time with me. I pity you. It’s odd that we haven’t rubbed off on you (too much) yet.

I’m open for dancing, but I don’t want to scare Lauren too much at her own post party.

Glow sticks! Cool! Woohoo this is fun. Blacklights are kinky. Now all I need is someone to get kinky with.

By the way, Palm, I am your lovely hostess. Nice to meet you. 🙂

OK, since this is already a post party, there is no need to start a whole new one. Just want to point out that this is my 400th post. So everyone give me attention too! Now this should be double the party!

</div>

No, I didn’t mean to do that. I can go sit on the wall for once. Everyone ignore me, this is Lauren’s party. Although I wouldn’t mind just one person following me into the dark corner.

Digital, congrats. On this solemn occasion, I’d like to give you the double-secret Minnesota Clique handshake.

First I take my ice-cold hand and place it, um, _here_, and then I do…_this!_

Wide awake now, aren’t ya?

(Don’t tell any of the Minnesota dopers that I showed it to you. They’d make me wear a Packers helmet for a week if they knew.)

::: say…what’s that in the corner? it looks like a chick with a glow stick…_wow!_ :::
