Sometimes I think the Lounge IS my only social life

[Whoa_Nelly]

Am going to go out and rake leaves.

Will check back here to see which friends have dropped in for the party :loveya:

Meanwhile, help yourselves to the wine, Kahlua, Bailey's, and brandy. There's pelnty of ice in the freezer and a big bottle of Stoli's! Oh, and there's chips and dip making's in pantry and fridge...

Mix it up people! Mingle! :bounce:

[Redstone]

1. I'll make a frozen somethingorother for you to drink when you're done with the leaves.

And keep the others from getting their grubby hands on it before you come in.

Redstone

[InternalDialogue]

3. So far it's a pretty small affair, Redstone.

Mix me up one of them too, if you don't mind.

I'll warm some of the couch cushions.

[Whoa_Nelly]

8. Glad to see you here, ID!

If you need to put your feet up, there are cushy comfy recliners, too....just ask Ptah and Peggy!

[InternalDialogue]

13. Um, were those soaps in the bathroom just decorative?

I, uh, nevermind. :blush:

A recliner sounds nice.

By the way, where do you get soaps like that? Just wondering.

:yoiks:

[Whoa_Nelly]

16. OMG! That was the minature wax Christmas fruit!

Was it tasty?

[InternalDialogue]

31. Meh.

I've had better soap.

:silly:

[Whoa_Nelly]

37. Well, certainly hope you enjoyed using the zircon encrusted Xmas handtowels to dry off

With Zappa appliqued on doin' his best Christmas tree

I put them out just for you! :pals:

[Whoa_Nelly]

7. Am back!

Serve it up, my sweet! mmmmmmmm....

[InternalDialogue]

2. Thank you! Don't mind if I do.

I'll have to introduce myself around -- the Lounge only became my primary social life over the past couple weeks.

[fizzgig]

4. i'll get started on the dip

and maybe a few more munchies so you have something to eat when you get back in and i think i'll help myself to a white russian, that sounds tasty tonight

[Whoa_Nelly]

10. Oh goody!!

Jumpin' for joy!! :woohoo:

Am glad you're makin' a white Russian...sounds marvy!

5. Can I jump in the pile when you're done?

Damn I miss those days...in the meantime I will make a drink...:toast:

[Whoa_Nelly]

12. It was A LOT of leaves!

Two trees have finally dropped most of their leaves....green can is all the way full!
(plus, felt guilty when I saw next door neighbor had raked my leaves from his part of the year...on edit: yard! Redtone's special drink is gettin' me looped! .... :yoiks:)

It WAS a lot of leaves! Come on over! I;ll dump out the lot and we can play!

[cwydro]

35. OMG

I love the little jump in leaves smilie. Ok...let me finish making my drink and I'll be right over. You know, it has been more than 30 years, but I still remember the smell of a leaf pile when you jump in...:)

[CaliforniaPeggy]
