For C. (who must be middle-aged now) Joe Jackson's "I'm the Man" What a bass-line!

Reduced fat potato chips... and rum Stargate: Atlantis DVDs (bless Claire!) Dead baby starling in my front yard: "Why do I get stuck burying you?" That sexy replacement bass-player in the new-wave-cover-band-that-shall-remain-nameless. He had a voice like liquid honey.

Monkey sex tonight?

Joe Flanigan Stuart Townsend ... and that replacement bass-player in the new-wave-cover-band-that-shall-remain-nameless

Chocolate Rimmel lipstick in endless shades Stuart Townsend Joe Flanigan Rum with lime & Coke and lots of ice Hawaiian leis and fresh pineapple. Sounds like a party to me!

'S very tasty -- specially with lots of those tiny key limes, a bit of Coke, tons of ice in a very tall glass, and one of those umbrella straws. Yup!

Pleasantly drunk, but it's starting to wear off. Bugger!

I went for my walk today, despite the fact that it was raining. Not sure it will make up for the rum & "reduced fat" potato chips this evening, though.

V D'ya ever visit here when you're a bit drunk?

Drinking rum and watching the commentary track on Stargate: Atlantis. The angelic Mr. H. is working late tonight, so I need some virtual company. Normally, I'm not a fan of commentary tracks.

Pretty much just like this!

^Clowns aren't as scary as ventriloquist dummies. ^^Majolica serving bowl for baked potatoes -- shaped to look like a baked potato (or a giant turd, if no-one explained to you what it was supposed to be). And no, I did not regift it, I just junked it. However, its memory has given me years of amusement -- so, in that sense, I guess it was actually a really terrific gift. < Bit giddy. Might be the drugs. V Ever wake up laughing?

"Red Wind" by Raymond Chandler

That's hilarious, William. It took me halfway through the commercial to realize he was singing a Duran Duran cover!

How long does an open bottle of Bailey's 'keep' in the fridge?

Ice cream with what, B_under? Mermaids or Surfer Joe a la mode?

^ Ask Pirate Seika -- she must know: http://pyracy.com/forums/index.php?showuser=4817 < I like the grilled tomatoes and mushrooms in the English breakfast. The cold toast is a bit mystifying, though. (I know of one Canadian family in which a silver-plated toast rack given as a wedding present by a British relative became a running-joke "regift" that got presented to each newlywed couple in turn, never once leaving its shrink-wrapped box in over 20 years.) V Strangest present you've ever received? Did you "regift" it?
