That’s right. I’ve been so slacking in my posting lately that I started any of the thread I wanted to, nor have I been posting around my usual haunts, so you people get 3 posts here before I’m out of action.
Post #1:
Neener neener neener! I had a vacation and youuuuu didn’t!
My vacation totally rocked. We went to Nagshead (actually, Duck) and spent a week doing nothing but being lazy and drinking. I highly recommend the drinking part. One day we took the brats to Jockey’s Ridge, and since we were in the place near where the first airplane flight took place we decided that the kids needed edjumacatin’. So we bought a book of paper airplane designs and built roughly 50 planes the night before. We also bought three different types of wooden glider planes. Then we spent the day having a contest for the longest flight. My friend Aaron won, with a distance of about 90 feet. It was fun.

HARRRRR!
I think I’m becoming more god-like than you can possibly imagine. I totally rocked the field this weekend during my reenactments. I only “died” twice and killed roughly 4 people per engagement. There’s something satisfying about smacking someone with a foam weapon and watching them drop like a rock. Also, pictures were posted from the last campout, where me and my fellow country members dressed up as monster types. My picture is here , and I look DAMN good.
Post #3:
Um hving teef out
Tomorrow, that’d be Wednesday, I’m having 3 wisdom toofuses pulled and some other work done to stem the damage from the very infected very imapcted tooth that spawned this whole mess. I’m getting knocked out because I’m a dental pansy. I hate dentists and all thier works. I’m a little nervous though, because I’ve never been under general anethesia before. Is that normal? Plus, Welbywife and others have been more than forward in giving me horror stories to think about before I go in, so you guys don’t have to. I’ll be out of action for a few days, but I might stop in and say “Umf” a day or so after the procedure.
So there. Three for the price of one, and I didn’t even mention the naked jelly dancing.
#3 - I had 2 wisdom teeth out some years back, but I didn’t have to get knocked out. I did have to let my mother-in-law drive me home. 'Tweren’t no big deal.
Your naked jelly dances? Or you dance naked in jelly? I don’t understand…
#2 - Thanks! Did you like my superior style in picking the colors?
#3 - I’ve heard varying opinions so far, the actual bad stuff (so the dentist tells me) is the infected roots of the adjoining teeth. Whatever the result, I’d rather be punched in the head.
#1 - I had a vacation, too, and I had lots of fun and I got presents! So neener neener right back atcha.
#2 - That image will haunt me for a long, long time.
#3 - My wisdom teeth never came in, so they never had to come out. I did get laughing gas one time when I had to have three cavities filled at once. A hint–if the dentist has a headset with different channels so you can listen to stuff while they work on you, don’t turn it to the comedy channel while you’re on laughing gas. Mindless giggling in a dentist chair is not attractive.
#1 - All right, already, stop rubbing it in. I’m jealous, I’ll admit it.
#2 - What are you wearing?!? And why, why would you appear in public in such a thing? Oh, wait, I think I get it. It’s some sort of humiliating club initiation, right? Your boys got you drunk and left you miles from home like that with no cash, right?
#3 - I still have all my teeth. Neener, neener, neener!
Okay, so some other people had measly vacations, but nothing like mine, I’m sure of it.
Wintermute you didn’t like the outfit? I thought it was the epitome of style.
Actually, it’s horrifying, I know. It’s an old tablecloth that I made into a tunic a bunch of years ago. I got it at the thrift store, which makes me wonder what the taste level of the donor was.
FCM, what’s with the violent tendencies lately. Calling me names, threatening to beat me up. Careful, you’ll make Rue jealous.
#1 - You vacationed on a bunch of rocks. No wonder you drank the whole time.
#2 - Nice headdress. You look like the last place contestant in the Miss Rainbow pageant.
#3 - Ouch! My wisdom teeth never came in either, but I have had periodontal surgery. You get real good pain drugs, so you probably pretty much won’t care for a couple of days. I’ll eat a steak in your honor.
Woo, that emsemblé sure is the epi-tome of something Welbs. But as long as you’re happy, that’s the inportant thing. Or you have a big foam whacking thing, that might be important too. It depends on how hard the foam is.
I had my wisdom teeth taken out. I had big drugs and went nighty-night. That was the way to go. Fer sher.
#2. Flamboyant tunic and hat combo there, does it come with a purse? The oldest profession style red stockings are a nice touch.
#3. Take your meds, follow the after-care instructions carefully (avoid dry socket as if it were an electric socket) and you’ll be fine. I suggest the attire mentioned in #2, as your sugery day attire.
#2. HawHawHeeHeeeHeeheehheeheheHeheheeehheheheheheheeheeheheheheheheheheheeheh! wipes tears from eyes
#3. You have my sympathy on that one. Pretty much all of my teeth are metal or porcelain now. And I didn’t enjoy any of it. I’ve never had a general anesthetic in the dentist’s office, but the laughing gas is fun, no doubt about that. See if they’ll give you some before they knock you out.
This post may not be coherent, as my face was apparently made a through-way for a freight train yesterday and I’m eating my drugs like candy, but I will say this:
I can’t beleive you people are making fun of my superior tunic. Just because YOU people have no taste doesn’t mean I shouldn’t either. Maybe you guys will like this one better.
Welby, you have my most humble apologies. I meant no disrespect, really. Umm… I am curious however, just how long have you been under the impression that you were a militant picnic table?
Okay, okay, I’ll quit now.
Your other picture looks very impressive, really. As was your biography. Very interesting.
Tell us the truth. You lost a bet, didn’t you? I can’t think of any possible alternate explanation for voluntarily posting a link to that first picture. You just can’t lob me softballs like that.
All right, now that you are in pain, I feel just a little bit sorry for making fun of you. Just a little.
I will, however, admit that this picture is much better. You appear to clean up nicely. Now, if only we could get you in some fashions from this century.
So, what is that thing you do, dressing up outlandishly and running about the woods with faux weapons? (You are such a boy!)
Where have you been? I needed you in here yesterday, Ex! The sight of that photo caused so many jokes to come to mind that I short circuited my brain. I couldn’t decide where to start! It literally took me a couple of hours of sniggering to myself before I could even begin to compose a post. Thank god I’ve got an office to myself.
And,well, to be truthful, I didn’t want to be too cruel. I’m still invested in having the people on this board like me, but you don’t have to worry about that. You can be as mean as you like.
See Wintermute, I have this job, and my boss has this really goofy idea that I should actually do some work once in a while. So, I’ve been busy shifting paper and money from one place to the other all week. I just couldn’t find the time to post. Can you forgive me?
Truth be told, I actually sympathize with my Desigated Enemy[sup]TM[/sup], welby. You see, I had all four of my wisdom teeth extracted when I was a youngster. (21 years of age, and really resentful of the time it took away from my partying.) Three of them were impacted, and I had raging infections. I would think you would understand that, having my jaw cracked open, reamed out, and reasembled with wire, that I might have some sort of small point of connection with the Great Satan[sup]TM[/sup].
On the other hand, dressing up like a clown and whacking other geeks with a foam-rubber sword might give me some ammunition.
