\<coming back into the room, wearing only her Fredericks of Hollywood lingerie, purplebear is pleased to find more people stopped by\>

Why, thank you so much, dear Lexi! :o  
Too kind, too kind. Here is your drink, shaken, not stirred, per request.

Angkins, welcome to the party. Thank you for bringing the tequila shooters! By all means, hop into the tub, maybe you can stir up these guys. 😉

pipefitter, my dear, welcome, welcome! Of course the tub is _quite_ hot! Oh, wait, you meant the temp of the water! :o  
Plenty of food left for you too, dear.

oh, weirddave, would you? ooooooooooohhhhhh, I like it, I like it! 😉

Surg, I don’t know about you! Why don’t you come over here and lay down on these pillows, since no one seems to want to start the fight?

weirddave, so glad that you’re still here. \<uuuuhhhhh! huff! dragggggging sounds…\> say, would you give me a hand with Surg, here? Talk about a dead weight!

GBS, HI!! Welcome to my party!! :o Thank you for that. I am so glad that you stopped by. What will be your pleasure? A hard drink, some iced tea, some milk? The drinks and the food are right over here.

Jesus, Surg, no wonder those drinks got lost, they couldn’t find their way around all those rocks you’ve obviously eaten. Say…forget the pillows, lets do this:

_giggles_ Thanks, weirddave, for helping me with Surg. _giggles_ I wonder what he’ll think when he wakes up?!?! 😃  
And, should we carry Ophy out to join him?

\<suddenly, purplebear gets hit from behind, and pelted by Seale’s whatzit pillow\>  
\<reeling from numerous hits, pbear takes a moment to compose herself, and launches her counterattack at him\>

Running up behind him while he’s distracted by Ang, she quickly **thwacks** him with both of her large fluffy pillows…  
Take **That**!! and **That**!!  
\<aside to anyone peeking in here, no, not _those_ pillows! geeeesh!\>

she then runs to the other side of the room, looking for the flavored oils, discards the remainder of her clothes, and starts oiling herself up… who’s next?

Hmmmmm. Naked. oiled. _those_ two big luscious pillows. You own me one for helping with Surg  
Ummm…ME?  
Or we could retire in private and I’ll oil myself up too. We won’t be back for days, but we won’t notice. What say?

Why weirddave, I thought you’d never ask! Here’s the oil, and I’ll be right with you. But, first, I must take care of Surg here.

\<sneaking up behind him, she **thwacks** him with a pillow on one side and spray of whipped creme from the other\>  
Take _ **that** _ and _ **that** _!! Just cause, I wanted to, and for passing out at my party!

\<then, before Falc can get away, she hits her across her back with one of her pillows\>  
heh heh heh! Hi, Falcon!

\<turning around, she sees weirddave trying to sneak up on her with some more whipped creme\> oh, so you wanna play rough do you?  
_ **THWACK** _ and suddenly feathers go flying everywhere…

Straightening up the room, putting out the trash, and making sure the food is put away, purplebear grabs her favorite pillows, and turns the lights out as she leaves the room.

Thanks for a great party, ya’ll!

Sorry the party is over, but can I help with the cleanup?  
Hate to leave such a mess here. There’s feathers, empty bottles, whipped cream, and what’s this chocolate syrup, lying all around here.  
You relax, I’ll take care of this(I’ll even wash up the dishes)  
Take care and congrats again.  
See you Saturday 🙂 😉 🙂 😉 🙂 😉
