We will never see eye to eye, Tom. ;_;

xpost -- And you will.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 19:21 (eighteen years ago)

I should also say that I received this mail because I am in fact an honest to god Eagle Scout. Therefore I presumably possess...well, anyway.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 19:21 (eighteen years ago)

hmm... maybe you're right, remy. that would explain why i haven't been able to ditch my shitty state university job for a better writing gig in the private sector. it's nice to have something to blame besides, you know, myself.

lxy, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 19:23 (eighteen years ago)

Eh, I find my state university job (non-shitty, happily) gives me the chance to write more because I'm not carrying any work home from work -- and because it doesn't make work at home seem like that, because it's not like I'm working all day on writing. *shrug* Mileage, variance, etc.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 19:25 (eighteen years ago)

YAY my See's Candy order just arrived. The kids will have chocolate bunnies, etc. for Easter!!!! Also - scotchmallow eggs for me. YUM

Sara R-C, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 19:47 (eighteen years ago)

does scotchmallow have real scotch in it?

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 19:49 (eighteen years ago)

Sadly for you, no.

It's honeyed marshmallow and caramel covered in dark chocolate. It sounds like it would be too sweet, but it is not.

Sara R-C, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 19:51 (eighteen years ago)

Sara will you shot See's details for me so I can fwd to mother plz? Most popular Xmas refrain this year was GET YOUR HANDS OFF THAT BOX OF CANDY IT WAS $35.

suzy, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 20:04 (eighteen years ago)

Sure, here ya go:

I usually do the "pick your own mix" and also get some of the Awesome Nut & Chew bars. They charge a bunch more for shipping when it's warmer because they package everything so it stays cold - I don't know when the cutoff date for the higher costs is, though. She could always order extra right now and stick in the freezer for later.

Sara R-C, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 20:30 (eighteen years ago)

Also one of the things I envy about living on the West Coast is that you can walk into a See's Candy and they always give you a free sample. LOVE THAT.

Well, except that I'd weigh, like, 4,000 pounds.

Sara R-C, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 20:31 (eighteen years ago)

hello i am posting from the software exbibition hall in beautiful LAS VEGAS. yesterday ian and i walked 3 miles in the hot sun to find an in-n-out burger. it was delicious.

bell_labs, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:05 (eighteen years ago)

did you walk in the hot sun in your cocktail dress? plz say yes.

lxy, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:08 (eighteen years ago)

there is a creepy mall in my hotel that has a fake blue sky and fake sunlight. last night we ordered fried chicken room service because i got too drunk at the customer networking event at TAO nightclub to behave in public. but tonight we eat at lotus of siam.

bell_labs, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:08 (eighteen years ago)

not in my cocktail dress, but in a plain black normal dress. maybe i will wear the coctail dress tonight to the thai restaurant.

bell_labs, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:10 (eighteen years ago)

burger pilgrims!

Mr. Que, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:11 (eighteen years ago)

bell, if you get too drunk tonight and have to order room service again, please consider wearing your cocktail dress to answer the door. NOTHING is more elegant than dressing up for room service.

lxy, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:15 (eighteen years ago)

If someone could take photos, that would be even better.

Sara R-C, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:19 (eighteen years ago)

Um, that's about all of them.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:35 (eighteen years ago)

apparently i kept taking my clothes off before the room service arrived and ian kept making me put them back on. i was very, very drunk.

bell_labs, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:49 (eighteen years ago)

but anyways. EVENING DRESS. PHOTOS. IT'S ON. now i'm going to blow off a class on crystal reports and go to the sephora in my hotel.

bell_labs, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:51 (eighteen years ago)

There's a Sephora in your HOTEL!?! (ENVYING)

Sara R-C, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 21:53 (eighteen years ago)

Somewhere around here I have pictures of K and I eating room service and drinking wine in our fancy-ass linen hotel supplied robes.

It is possible that both of us are v v drunk in this picture.

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:06 (eighteen years ago)

When one turns milestones of old, I highly recommended applying 1 extravagant fancy hotel room and liberal doses of alcohol to the resultant wound.

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:07 (eighteen years ago)

I wonder if any of the other guests could hear me yelling "HOLY FUCK THIS FUCKING SHOWER IS MADE OUT OF MARBLE!!"

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:08 (eighteen years ago)

ARE THESE SOAPS FROM AVEDA?

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:09 (eighteen years ago)

we hid the minibar key from ourselves prior to the drunkening.

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:09 (eighteen years ago)

SHIT DUDE THIS ARMOIRE HAS A SAFE IN IT!

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:10 (eighteen years ago)

FREE SHOESHINES OMG WTF!

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:10 (eighteen years ago)

i am a classy classy guy

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:10 (eighteen years ago)

Sara R-C, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:28 (eighteen years ago)

Wait, who took the picture?!

And are you going to tell us the name of the hotel as a recommendation or what? (I'm going to turn 40 someday. And also 15 year anniversary in 2010. And hey, I'm going to graduate in 2009. Lots of excuses here.)

Sara R-C, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:29 (eighteen years ago)

The Grand Hotel in MPLS.

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:30 (eighteen years ago)

Hmmmm, thx, will tuck that info away.

PS I really didn't want to know who took the picture.

Sara R-C, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:34 (eighteen years ago)

they have these things in cel phones what they call the digital camerons or something these days

John Justen, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:53 (eighteen years ago)

Sure, whatever you say, Irish.

Sara R-C, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 22:56 (eighteen years ago)

You are crazy people, you crazy! (Besides, celebrate yer damn milestones with something less frou-frou. Unless you are my parents shipping me out to Hawaii for their anniversary, in which FROU FROU TO THE MAX PLEASE.)

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 19 March 2008 23:47 (eighteen years ago)

I was actually thinking of having some kind of party for one of those milestones, but now that Ned has called me frou-frou, I think I will just sit at home and sulk instead!!! ;_;

Sara R-C, Thursday, 20 March 2008 00:13 (eighteen years ago)

THANKS FOR NOTHING NED

John Justen, Thursday, 20 March 2008 00:13 (eighteen years ago)

Sara R-C, Thursday, 20 March 2008 00:14 (eighteen years ago)

John Justen, Thursday, 20 March 2008 00:16 (eighteen years ago)

See, that just made my night! ^_^

Sara R-C, Thursday, 20 March 2008 00:19 (eighteen years ago)

Hooray!

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 20 March 2008 01:18 (eighteen years ago)

Actually Ned should surely create a Peeps-based drink for the JJ and FB Will Drink It thread.

Sara R-C, Thursday, 20 March 2008 01:24 (eighteen years ago)

I have to go get on my treadmill now and all I can think of is that there are people out there, somewhere, eating free bacon. And I envy.
