I guess I missed the party. And I can only imagine the aftermath. Dick slowly awakening to find he slept face-down on the keyboard, the ashtray full of half smoked cigarettes laying amidst a crumpled wrapper from a package of Lucky Strikes. Too lazy to get a fresh pack out, he grasps the longest of the butts and slips it between his lips. Lighting it, Dick takes a full pull on the cigarette and commences hacking just as he does every morning to announce he has arisen. His hair is a mess, and his pajamas are buttoned all wrong. Without checking the mirror, he knows his eyes are bloodshot. And most of all, the headache informs him that the somewhat vague memories he has of having a good time last night aren't just a figment of his imagination.
"It was a hell of a party!" he mutters to himself, falling out of his chair to lay prone and passed out upon the floor. It will probably be after noon before ambition overtakes gravity sufficient to get Dick off the floor and effectively started on a whole new day.
Well, now I'm here to tell Dick and all his friends that the party continues! And I wish a "Very Happy Unbirthday" for Dick and for all of you from all of me. Enjoy!
LOL, yeah, it was very much a mad tea party. It's my hope Dickon's head isn't hurting too much this morning.
OK...Now someone has to tell me what I missed!
HB2D!
Cows, chickens in choppers, songs, laughter, a lot of people, mayhem, stripping, drinking, un-drinking, and a good time had by all. You know, the usual. =D
FACE, WHERE IN THE F... HAVE YOU BEEN?
Lets get moving here Face. I want some rants!!
If this were ANYONE else I would be pissed. I have been sung of much too much lately.
But its you Sleepin'. I mean there are so few of us '30s Democrats out there anymore. Something for the owrkin' man and woman.
You are a good man Sleepin' and it has been a pleasure knowing you.
Happy unbirthday to you. I hope things ease up for you so that we can have those long long rants again.
And good debates with Jason!!!
Oh wish you could have joined the party - I missed a good deal of it due to company I had but did catch some hearty laughs and great music. A very happy unbirthday to you too and hope to catch you on the chat trail one of these days.
Nicely phrased, Sleepin'...
I was there for part of it - and a good time was had by all.
There's nothing better than a birthday celebration that spans several days. We started a day early, at his blog. And you're continuing it for a third day. I love it! :-)
A bit off track, but TheraP you set off a barn burner in the discussion of DD's rendition of Cicero, and then you never returned to see the "damage" you caused.
That may be an apt description as it was reported that LisB's place was busted up during a particularly enthusiastic funky chicken dance.
Now I am so hungry! Can I have something savory? I'm not in the mood for sweets.
OMG, you have to have some of the leftovers I took home from my departmental "thank you" lunch that our bosses gave us.
We went to a local restaurant and I'd picked out a menu of appetizers like thin-crust pizzas, one of them with mozzarella and tomato, the other with caramelized onions, mushrooms, and parmesan...along with fresh green salad. Main course was a mix of strip steak in wine and mushroom sauce, pasta, and a turkey with red pepper and cheese panini, with herb-roasted potatoes and steamed carrots and broccoli on the side.
Dessert was Death by Chocolate along with coffee.
Savory enough for ya, Cville?
