We're gonna have a party party

[cyrano]

Driving was very long because I took a metric ass-load of CDs to Rasputin to sell them, and it took like three hours. But Luc was very patient with it all, and there was a good deal of driving and all four of his tyres are still very full of air!
Then a whole bunch of people came to sushi and it was really neat even if there wasn't enough room for all the hot babes to sit next to me.
And I have cashed in on some lovely presents on top of all that. I got a lovely backrub from Hallie who is the best Earth Coalition Healer in the whole world, yay. Tersa got me my very own D&D book so I could quit scamming off other people, and Cindy got me dice so I could quit scamming off other people (pretty velvet bag!) The ladies of Chez Femme got me chocolate, and if that weren't enough they also got me shopping money. Mei has threatened to take me shopping as well, and I may ask her to help me get a new pair of boots. Mallen has made dark premonitions about a non-silicone related present that is in progress, and Drew has a scanner that it seems is destined for me. (: I'm sure there are many generous people I've callously forgotten, but it's late and I'm tired and I'm going to bed. I've gotten phone calls from my parents and my sister which I promise to return as soon as the world slows down a little.

I got you a present, too, but you're going to have to wait for it.

Oooo. The mind races with salacious replies.

*grin* Me too.

Okay, there's got to be something in the rules about hotties withholding presents. Like I get to collect interest or something.

What are you, a bank?!

BTW, "metric ass-load"? Is that an official weight/measure recognized by those blokes in Paris who care about such things (and whose name I've conveniently forgotten)? And what exactly does it measure? *wink*

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

I am not a bank. I'm just very interesteed in prezzies.
And the 'metric' ass load relates to the Imperial ass load in much the same way the 'metric' tonne relates to the Imperial ton. I suppose for clarity it should be 'metric ass loadde'.

Well, mostly, isn't it just better to do it in person, as opposed to, you know, long distance?

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Um... well... yeah, sure, but.... Instant Gratification, dammit!

a present for you...

Since I couldn't be there, dearie, here's a poem I found a while back and thought, 'Cyrano!'

Much love, from Rook.

Coyote and the White Folks - by Bill Lewis


Coyote watches the pilgrim's land.
He'd been getting bored anyway.

After ten thousand years the native
population was wise to his tricks.

Fact is, he'd been too good at his
profession. Done himself out of a job.

Coyote invents the stock market.
Everyone falls for it.

Coyote teaches military tactics to Custer.
(That can be the only explanation.)

Coyote writes scripts for soap operas.
Everyone says they're like real life.

Coyote writes scripts for real life.
Everyone says it's just like soap operas.

Coyote works as a spin doctor, gets
a movie actor elected as president.

Coyote says, I think it's going to be
quite a few years until my retirement.

Re: a present for you...

This is a very cool present. (: I'm going to have to save it somewhere. Once again, dear, you rock. *hug*
