Not location specific, No rules: Welcome to ILX heaven

I forgot I'm hosting a party this saturday and the house is a holy filthy mess. I hope I don't have a ton of work to do this weekend.

I'm going to implode.

Now would be the time for that tea methinks!

Parties are easy, let Mr Mis be host, you can hide out by cooler and build up to making your way inside greeting by greeting. You'll meet everyone and have an easy topic to start talking about (beerzlol or winelol) which will make you feel more comfortable.

What's the occasion, Ms Mis?

wine of both colours, crackers and pate, reasonably clean house, lots of seating, and a bit of quiet music.

party sorted.

Don't forget: midgets carrying salvers of cocaine

well, i assumed they'd been sorted already, tbh

sorry kev, not been keeping up with things, where you off to?

Stag in Rome Wed & Thurs, wedding in Florence Fri, Sat, Sun. Fly home Mon.

Don't forget: midgets carrying salvers of cocaine

Nor the baptismal font filled with lube

cut to the catholic s£x thread, then.

It's all about the details... (xpost)

Parties are easy, let Mr Mis be host,

HAH! It is the Potter Party I fretted over a few weeks ago. It was cancelled at the last minute as one of us fell dreadfully ill. I am making a treacle tart and some other goodies, must clean as everything's gone to sh*t while I've been so busy, restock alcohol (all previously bought likker has been imbibed) and decorate.

argggh work1

lots of snogging and grumbling about adults then

Pals!

I am off for some days in Hamsterjam. Have a lovely time at the wedding, Kev-lol! Have a great party, Ms. M.

Everyone else, as you were.

Have fun! Eat some brownies for us!

A Potter party sounds like fun - hope it's great, Sam!

Have fun Accentmonkey, Mr Monkey, Rock and DV. Enjoy!

I'll do my best to match the festivities in Italy.

Hope party goes well Ms Mis.

The rest of you: behave.

Yeah, like that's going to happen.

Whee, back from the city! Surmounter, I'm so glad you enjoyed the salsa! I looked for you after the show but I was in a bit of a daze and had no idea where to look. Such an intense play, AND NO ONE WARNED ME that I'd be seeing a knight's package on stage. Woo! :)

That salsa's truly the best and comes from the town of Telephone, Texas (so-called because it was the only town with a telephone int hat neck of the woods). I sent accentmonkey the same. When it comes to sending packages, I say damn the postage expense. It is a form of recreation for me, I figure, and it's a sin tax.

I am away from home myself! In Cambridge! Eating foods I can't get on my pathetic island! Buying second-hand books and clothing! I bought POWER-SUIT skirts at the Salvation Army. Nobody has subverted the powersuit yet—it's virgin fashion territory. When I get home I'll have to lay out all possible combos on my bed. Hiking boots are def. called for. Then work my way up, and go over to Scott and Maria's to check out the appliances.

Perhaps I shall have to do some packages of Misery brand salsa.

Took a break from working to go out to eat. Two margaritas, my tacos and one of G's enchiladas.

I. AM. DYING.

Hi dere thread.

Margaritas are a great way to take a break from work.

We visited Mr & Mrs ailsa in their new home last night, and very nice it is too = almost as nice as her cooking :) (anyone who can get both of our boys to clear their plates is doing something right)

Shame we got stuffed at the football :(

She's expecting to be back online sometime this week I think.

David's 6th birthday today, the last of the party mentalism until Christmas!

I want dinner with Scottish ILX0rs. :(

back at work. Demo at 1pm today. One big PHP thing to fix then a few styling things. wish me luck.

Onimo is being v generous re my cooking (the washing up only took half an hour though, and NO leftovers to throw out, hurrah) :-)

I am only sorry I couldn't arrange a better performance from Celtic in the first eight minutes to improve the evening. Good food and good wine and good company counts for nothing if Stephen McManus is going to knacker the mood after four minutes :-( Still, it was lovely to see Megan all growed up and big - last time I held her she was about five days old and now she is all big and adventurous and our stairs hold no fear!

Do not all get excited about new bed, it is just a sofa-bed for the putting-up of guests since our spare bedroom is basically just a cupboard with ideas above its station and wouldn't fit a full-time bed in it (well it would, but there wouldn't be room for important stuff like computer and TV and playing Wii bowling and stuff. Still no home internets, so back in the library on the way to get my little car back.

Happy birthday to DavidOnimo, hope Shrek 3 hasn't made him all upset at not getting a Wii for his birthday!

I work with people who say things like, "It's only a $350,000,000.00 fund," at ten minutes after eight in the morning. :(

i need a wii. anyone selling one cheap (PAL)?

Oh, and Ms Mis, take a holiday and come for dinner with Scottish ILXors!

Darragh, I will sell you a Wii* as I fear that, coupled with WoW will end my marriage :-)

*I won't really, but watch this space for how pissed off I get.

toying with my wii emotions will not endear me to your environmentally damaging travel techniques.

Oh, and Ms Mis, take a holiday and come for dinner with Scottish ILXors!

I so wish I could but such travel is out of my means.

The good news is the site I've been slaving over is 98% finished and ready for it's demo in a couple of hours. I feel quite well.

Good for you, Ms Mis.

I was just reading the 30 Rock thread, and even though nabisco said not to, I googled 'lemon party', and oh, how I wish I had not.

Luckily I can't watch youtube at work, luna, 'cause from what I can glean from the search results, I might have to take grapefruit spoons to my eyeballs.

That thing with the lemon in youtube is just old men dancing around, but you (thanks GOD) don't see anything, it's just the other pictures ... pardon me while I go poke out my mind's eye.

Yeah, I just found out what it means and I'm now trying to find something to delete it from memory.

Hell of a way to start the day...

Glad I could help.

wow. . .I can only imagine.

Don't go there, Ms Mis...

Innocence is bliss.

I DEMAND THE RETURN OF MY INNOCENCE!

I don't look at nasty things at work anyway.

Or at home for that matter.

fingers crossed on the demo, ms. miz!

er, I'm guessing that the definition of lemon party that's causing such consternation is not the one I know...

I DEMAND THE RETURN OF MY INNOCENCE!

Of course, Ma'am. Did you keep the receipt?

Per urbandictionary.com: lemon party = Closly related to the infamous "tubgirl" site. If one goes to www.lemonparty.org, you will withness a old-man threesome. One sucking dick and the other two making out. Possibly the most horrifing thing one man can ever witness. sic

Great, there goes ever reader's innocence.

Pray tell, madam, is there indication why it's called a lemon party, specifically?

wow, yeah, that's not the lemon party I knew. egads.

the one I knew was like a slam book, and I don't even want to ponder what kind of horrible thing that might become as a website.

I know what patita is talking about. I believe that website is called Noize Board.

Thanks for the definition Luna, that's all I need to know.

I have come to the conclusion I don't understand ILX any more, and maybe I should just stay off it.

No, stay on. It's dead enough lately. Don't need the good ones leaving.

WAKE UP EVERYONE!

I have my first user testing lab in two hours. So far it's gone a bit star-shaped but I shall pull it off and learn from my mistakes.

Are you all Onimo-ed?

i think it's called a lemon party cos old men make faces like they're sucking one during intercourse.

just a theory.

It's not that gross a picture really now, is it.

No, I have not been onimoed since I don't know when. I've just felt like shooting myself in the fucking face, or sticking my head in the oven, or something for about a week now and any time I've tried to cheer myself up in the seconds I've got free by clicking on a thread has just been depressing as fuck. Pages of middle-aged men pretending to be teenagers is no fun - that's what every other forum is full of.
