Hope to see you there, Mr. T. Maybe I should give out razors as party favors. | ||

Is shaving a requirement? | ||
| las Citizen Username: Las Post Number: 1251 Registered: 10-2003 |
Only if you're doing the cocktail balancing trick. Or hoping to get lucky. | ||

I'm gonna bring Alex and the monster, if you don't mind... | ||
| las Citizen Username: Las Post Number: 1255 Registered: 10-2003 |
Don't mind at all. What's the monster? | ||
| Monster© Supporter Username: Monster Post Number: 2516 Registered: 7-2002  |
it's the trouser snake las, the trouser snake.... | ||

Don't ask who Alex is, either. | ||

Ess was kind enough to take me birthday shoe shopping last night. Our waiter at dinner kept using the word 'snatch' - as in, "let me snatch up those empty wine glasses and go snatch you a new bottle." Neither ess nor I like being snatched during dinner. One thing at a time. This was me not falling down in my new birthday shoes (thanks to the salesman holding my elbow (35, single, straight, will stop by my party)). I am aware the nylon peds in tandem with the imprints from my socks have driven men to extremes. It is a gift.  Enticing Fact About las No. 2*: Cat fur follows me everywhere. Yes, there was cat fur on my shoe at Nordstrom - the shoe that just came out of the wrapper for the first time had an orange piece of fur clinging to it by the time it hit my foot. Meow!  *Resuming numerical order | ||

Since everyone seems to be utterly consumed by my Enticing Facts, why don't we have a bonus EF today? Enticing Fact #3: Sometimes when the decedent and I would (you-know) my cat would jump on the bed and snuggle up against me. I would pet her. (During you-know). | ||
| ess Citizen Username: Ess Post Number: 1418 Registered: 11-2001 |
Las - those shoes are smokin'!!! With or without cat hair. | ||

Enticing Fact No. 4: I find narcissists facsinating. | ||
| LilLB Citizen Username: Lillb Post Number: 1396 Registered: 10-2002  |
Las - the shoes look particularly nice with the pantyhose peds. You should wear those to your party too  So...I actually had a dream last night that you sent me a paper invitation in the mail to your party. In the dream, when I got the invitation, I thought "Wow...how nice. She must really want me to go to the party." (Note how I selfishly made YOUR party all about ME...terrible.) I'm not sure if that's stranger than the dream I had a week or so ago about hiring Tom Reingold to redo our bathroom, but it's up there... | ||
| las Citizen Username: Las Post Number: 1269 Registered: 10-2003 |
Fascinating! I p/l'd you, Lil. I'd like to send you a paper invite. Not quite as enticing as Tom Reingold performing rehab on your bathroom, but at least you can say you had a dream come true! | ||
| Tom Reingold Supporter Username: Noglider Post Number: 13019 Registered: 1-2003  |
If you ask me, the sound of getting a paper invitation from you sounds like more fun than me redoing a bathroom. Last night, I replaced a florescent light fixture, which made me feel very proud. That indicates my relatively low skill level. | ||
| LilLB Citizen Username: Lillb Post Number: 1397 Registered: 10-2002 |
Dang -- I just paid an electrician to install some light fixtures (really)... I should have known to call you, Tom. | ||

Enticing Fact No. 5: My flat is littered with knitting projects. (Look closely: can you spot the cat fur?)       | ||
| LibraryLady(ncjanow) Supporter Username: Librarylady Post Number: 3108 Registered: 5-2001  |
Any maximum age requirement for this shindig? Do you even remember Shindig? And Hullaballo? If the over xx"s crowd is allowed, I'll be a dropping by. After all, someone has to be sober enough to drive you kiddies home! Ok, Las?? | ||
| veralynn Citizen Username: Veralynn Post Number: 2 Registered: 12-2005 |
count me in! i'll be at the party | ||
| Tom Reingold Supporter Username: Noglider Post Number: 13045 Registered: 1-2003 |
LibraryLady, why are you talking as if you're old? Are you pulling our leg or something? | ||
| LibraryLady(ncjanow) Supporter Username: Librarylady Post Number: 3122 Registered: 5-2001 |
After my "second" childhood in Ft. Lauderdale for spring break last week .....believe me Tom, I am old(er)!!! I felt old enuf to be some of those whippersnappers mom. Oh wait, I am old enough and have two to prove it!. But I'll be glad to "chaperone" LAS party. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA  | ||
| las Citizen Username: Las Post Number: 1279 Registered: 10-2003 |
Maximum age? Of course not, LibraryLady. I will accept a straight man of any age as a gift. LL and Veralynn: consider yourselves rsvpd! Enticing Fact No. 6: When I say I don't find something the least bit embarrassing that is actually code for I am so humilated I could die. e.g.: Last night in front of an SRO audience Jamie Ross said, "Besides las, who here is single?" No, that wasn't the least bit embarrassing...  | ||
| Cynicalgirl Citizen Username: Cynicalgirl Post Number: 2489 Registered: 9-2003  |
LibraryLady, I remember Shindig and Hullabaloo (and Where the Action Is!). I'll be at the party and I could be some of these folks' mother! (If I started early that is...feelilng my age, lately) | ||
| wendy Supporter Username: Wendy Post Number: 2113 Registered: 5-2001 |
OK, between the three of us who can say raising the mean age bar three times? Mean, mean and yet again mean (but really cute and young at heart of course). | ||

Come now, ladies. If I can kick off my loafers for a pair of five inch heals, you can put away your AARP cards. For one night. Please?... | ||

It's your party and we'll whine if we want to. But seriously, we'll be there with bells and heels on las. Can't wait. Wendy | ||
| las Citizen Username: Las Post Number: 1286 Registered: 10-2003 |
Wendy and LL you are freaking me out and I'm feeling paranoid. Growing up my birthday often fell on Passover so I could never have a party or cake on my day. Don't think it escapes me you two have been chatting up Matzoh Charlotte for the past twelve years and now your bantering on my birthday thread. Things just don't work that way. I'm having cake with flour, and as a matter of fact, I ordered it today. You're not scaring me. You're not scaring me at all. | ||
| wendy Supporter Username: Wendy Post Number: 2115 Registered: 5-2001 |
As well we shouldn't be (scaring you that is - we're lovely ladies). You should be laughing.... here I'll show you how. | ||
| las Citizen Username: Las Post Number: 1287 Registered: 10-2003 |
Okay, I am laughing a little (see: ). And I am having cake with flour (and buttercream frosting) at my birthday party. And I know you are lovely ladies. | ||
| LibraryLady(ncjanow) Supporter Username: Librarylady Post Number: 3129 Registered: 5-2001 |
Wendy, You put bells on your fingers and I'll wear bells on my toes (Or should it be the other way around???) Don't worry LAS, this party is gonna tear the house (tea room) down!!! | ||

Enticing Fact About las No. 7: To avoid scuffing a new pair of shoes, I once made the instantaneous choice to land on my hands during a slip & fall. And broke my wrist. And I wasn't even drunk. | ||
| las Citizen Username: Las Post Number: 1304 Registered: 10-2003 |
I don't mean to distract from the festivities, but it has come to my attention that not everyone who is planning to attend has rsvp'd. The other night two possibles became four confirms, and one can't-make-it became two see-you-theres. I need to have a count, so as an added incentive to advise of your attendance please note that for every attendee who has not rsvp'd, a kitten gets it. Thank you.  Please don't make me get it. | ||
| Monster© Supporter Username: Monster Post Number: 2566 Registered: 7-2002 |
Just as a reminder, my wife and I RSVP'd around the fire, but fell free to let another kitty get it anyway.... | ||
| CLK Supporter Username: Clkelley Post Number: 2045 Registered: 6-2002  |
I think I RSVP'ed, but unlike wendy will not be wearing heels. CLK and heels, except for the low chunky variety, are usually incompatible. (please tell me there is no dress code - I have jeans, some of which are presentable, and I have suits. I wear turtlenecks with both. Makes changing when I get home easier - take off the suit and put on the jeans, leave the turtleneck on. Kind of like Mr. Rogers' cardigan, except with me it's the trousers .... right?) | ||
| las Citizen Username: Las Post Number: 1305 Registered: 10-2003 |
No dress code - I'm just wearing heels to make the cocktail trick more exciting. (The secret's in the accessories.  ) Wear your turtlenck. And your jeans. Heck - you can wear Mr. Rogers if he's available - I won't tell. | ||

Enticing Tidbit About las No. 8: Seventeen years ago today: It was raining at my mother's funeral and I fell to me knees at the gravesite. My sister screamed, "Catch her! She's going to jump!" at which time my father grabbed my coat collar and pulled me backwards causing me to land on my rear. In the mud. Wearing a skirt. To which my sister shrugged to the grievers, "What? I thought she was jumping in." |
