Are we still talking teen crushes? I want to hear some stories from the boy side.
Like, if you give a guy 50p for something at the tuck shop and he gives you what you ordered and the 50p back with a smile, does that mean he loves you?
Actually, there's something about your story that reminds me of the guy I had a crush on at youthgroup. At a retreat the 2nd day (when just about everyone except me was hungover) I realized I was sitting exactly behind this guy that I'd been fascinated with for at least a year. Somehow I ended up standing up exactly at the same time he did and his soup went all over his David Cassidy-like shirt of patterns and I was horrified! Needless to say, no opportunity for a slogg there!!

Ah, reunions... Yes we had one. He wasn't there, in fact only a few people I know were. Got stuck talking to some girl who was astonished that we weren't better friends at school. Looked like she'd forgotten we hated one another. Ended up in a corner talking to a guy that I saw all the time in London. No snogging. Not that kind of friend.
My first snogging came as a complete shock. I never saw it coming. I was just sitting there, and the guy -- who I'd swear showed no previous interest beyond talking about action movies -- suddenly leaned over and locked me lips.
Unfortunately, he badly miscalculated. See, I'm not a romantic.
He got a good taste of my knuckles. I apologized for the trigger-happy response, but he got an earful for presuming in addition to a split lip. *snerk*
Oh, powerful Phoenix bird, rising from the ashes, could you please fix that typo (from slog to snog?)even though I know its almost time for round 10 of Jose Cuervo. . .did I spell that right? Obsessing over spelling ME
I didn't have the gnome under my coat. It was summertime.
I was following a huge group of bikers on my way back from Montana. It was shortly before the Sturgis rally so they were everywhere.
About 50 of them pulled into a truckstop ahead of me so I decided to see if they would take a picture with my gnome. I had been taking pictures of him everywhere doing odd things.
One of them said, "Honey, there are a lot of things I will put my hands on, but a damned gnome ain't one of them."
The other bikers took pictures with him, though. They even put him on their bikes for pictures.
Hi Phoenix, yes we are in the tv dark ages. Sometimes we get things here that we watched in the UK before we left - and that would be over four years ago. US tv is a bit more up to date now, since the channels twigged that everyone was watching stuff on tv and their viewing figures were dropping.
Time wise it's Friday lunchtime and I'm getting hungry.
ME, the only way I can fix it is to make the whole comment go bye-bye. You must take accountability for your typos. Besides, we get to laugh all over again at them!
Aw, I would never kill you, S&M. You have such fun initials!
Actually, I just love Japanese food. It's a little hard to come by in my neck of the woods, so it's a rare and treasured moment to tuck in to some sushi or a nice, hot bowl of miso soup. Mmm.
As for Lost, I was absolutely fascinated with the first few episodes, but I accidentally missed one, then watched the next week and had NO idea what was going on. Anything that requires that much devoted attention on my part, I pretty much nix from my schedule.
That's also what happened to the fiance, actually. Hm.
Oh and Chris! And probably Robin by this time, Sawyeresque. I love the beach. But Lost was alot better the first year when they didn't seem to know where the story was going.
See, that's what I hate. The programme starts, you get half of last week's show, then it's off to the commercials for laundry powder. What if books were like that?
Bless his heart, McK, but he mistook me for a romantic. *sigh* He liked to cuddle. And I'm about as cuddly as a rock.
Heh, you're killin me, Stick.
And Ril, if you can magic-mail me some miso, I'll be your devoted servant for as long as I can stand it. Which would apparently be about five seconds, but hey.

First! Woo-hoo!
Gotta change movies and make a kitchen run. Be right back! Don't get drunk without me!
Am I second???
Did I just hear the door close? Was that a key??
Fourth
No!!!
The lights just went out...
It's a lock-in!!!!
Phoenix keeps us honest - as honest as possible.
All right!
When is the poetry contest over?
Tomorrow at 8:00 am ET / 7 am CT / 5 am PT / 1 pm GMT
It's lunch time here. I need to go grab a sandwich. Back in 10.
OK- you all - let's talk about something REALLY fun. What?
I just catch up in one and everyone moves to the next room.
Actually, sounds just a rl party :\

Be back soon, ril!
EE should be on here in a minute.
For those who missed ME's story b/c of the move:

Well, RTB, it's that big in that thong, we probably all are...
Ahhh...Mck, I agree about shogging your teen crush.
Have you been to any reunions?

Don't think that one's from the boy's side is it?
Gotta run. Back soon.
It's lunch time here, too. And payday. I've been to the bank. And now have a choice of lumpia or a sandwich.
Does anyone know if EE will be dropping by?
Snog ME, snog. Slogg is something entirely different...
Chris! Hee hee
Hmmm. Teen crushes...God - that's a while back, girl.
Mck, HAHAHAHAAH!
But somebody's really in there.
and shogging something else again...
Ril, I need the boy side!
Solomon Grundy: All I want is a decent pair of pants!
Al Gore: I invented pants.
This moment of the random brought to you by Snacky Smores. We now return you to your regularly scheduled blogging.
Not slog or shog,
but snog.
Got it.
Hi Saipan -
Yes, he's said he'd be back at 11:00 Eastern. He's a bit behind, but he'll come.
Wow - I can't keep up! By the time I finish reading a round, there's another one up.
Great reading, though.
Ah. He came.
Ah, reunions... Yes we had one. He wasn't there, in fact only a few people I know were. Got stuck talking to some girl who was astonished that we weren't better friends at school. Looked like she'd forgotten we hated one another. Ended up in a corner talking to a guy that I saw all the time in London. No snogging. Not that kind of friend.
EE, for your third year, could I request you ramp up your clipart?
Make it 3-D, or talk, or interactive?
hehehe!
:-)
I always do during Lost.
Anyway, I was seven months pregnant at that point, which would have kind of given away the fact that I might not have saved myself for him.
It's Sawyer.
Did everyone see Miss Snark's drive by? Robin, do you want to tell them what she said when you invited her to drop by?
I saw Miss Snark had dropped in here and there. What did she say Robin?
I leave for a few minutes and you guys move to a different bar? Geez...
My first snogging came as a complete shock. I never saw it coming. I was just sitting there, and the guy -- who I'd swear showed no previous interest beyond talking about action movies -- suddenly leaned over and locked me lips.

I missed it!!! Yes Robin, please post!
My teenage crush is in my WIP, The Yearbook. The flashback part.
*bangs on the door*
Hey, did you lock me out by accident? Is the door stuck?
Um, wanna see my elf?
What about Sawyer?
ME
LOL Gutterball! You're such a romantic.
I went to a movie on my first 'real' date and the guy only laughed at the dirty bits. That relationship didn't go too far.
Hey, EE.
Mind if I ask you a question about your wood?
Put the elf away! Then we'll let you in.
Nothing like writing what you know, eh Chumplet?
Saipan: what's lumpia? Should I know? Am I just being dense?
Hit me.
Who was that guy who thought Miss Snark was a group of four men, like a literary N Sync? Anyone remember? It was a while ago.
I try not to remember my first kiss. It was a surprise to me, too. Seeing those zits so close up was shocking.
Well, the next guy did a little better. He warned me ahead of time, for one thing. Heheh. And he was a much better kisser.
All right. The elf is gone.
*gets out the gnome*
Is that an inlay design?
Ack! I remember that, BT, but I can't for the life of me remember who it was!
LOL, Julie. No more drinks for you, or you'll bring out the ogre.
They killed Sawyer?
ME
Mmmmmm lumpia.
Julie, I noticed that too. It's gorgeous!
Wanna hear my gnome story? I didn't have him between my knees, but it was mildly amusing.
DO NOT GIVE AWAY THE PLOT OF LOST!
We're behind you here!
And Sawyer is so hot.
Yes
Wait, no more drinks for me? Can I have just one for the road?
*gets out tub*
not
Yes, Sawyer is hot (whoever that is) or yes, it's inlay?
I'm with McKoala... haven't watched it yet, even though I'm in the Eastern time zone...
to inlay and Sawyer being hot.
What McK said - we've got almost two hours to wait here. Although, truth be told, I don't mind spoilers myself - drives my daughter crazy.
Jeez, Julie, what don't you have under that coat?
I'm guessing lumpia is loempia if that helps anybody.
Yes, the wood is inlay?
Did you pick out the design?
It's gorgeous, by the way.
My eyes have now switched places. It's time for beddie-bye.
Oh, I feel better now. Thank you EE.
Thank god for wikipedia. You guys are certainly no help. I'm trying to get some culture here. Wonder if you can make vegetarian lumpia.
G'night, Chumplet! Have lovely dreams of zombie sharks!
Oh, sorry- I was wandering around on the blog - sorry!
Miss Snark said "heck ya" when I sent her my "form letter" with extra comments, and asked her if she wanted to come.
EE- do you want a copy of the invitation to your party?
Back. So lunch is dry curry over rice, hamburg patty, some kind of croquette and spaghetti. Five and a half buck.
Oh, and miso soup.
What did I miss?
Just googled Sawyer.
Mama Mia!
Let's talk about him. What does he do in Lost? (I've never seen teh show, being a Survivorman fan myself)
Oh, powerful Phoenix bird, rising from the ashes, could you please fix that typo (from slog to snog?)even though I know its almost time for round 10 of Jose Cuervo. . .did I spell that right?
Obsessing over spelling
ME
night chumplet!!
Who the hell is Sawyer? I keep thinking Mark Twain's boy.
So the Aussies are ahead of us timewise but behind us tv-wise.
I think he's really there to take his shirt off every now and again. Works for me.
Ril, you missed 80 comments in 20 minutes. And man, I would kill for some miso soup right about now. I love that stuff.

Yes. Send me one. I feel like a crasher.
Robin, google him.
Hey ril,
which did you pick???
What's your e-mail. I'll send some right over.

Well I don't have any miso soup, GB, so don't look at me.
Careful, RIL, watch your back.
ME, the only way I can fix it is to make the whole comment go bye-bye. You must take accountability for your typos. Besides, we get to laugh all over again at them!
Night, chumplet.
omg, julie actually has a gnome story. This is getting disturbing.
Keep the gnome away from Bernita.
She'll shoot it as it's being kicked off the edge of a cliff, after it's been poisoned.
Which did I pick? You mean lunch?
You misread the conjunction - and. They're all in here, in a plastic lunchbox.
Ril, send some to me too!!
chriseldin@hotmail.com
So. EE? What's yer favorite pickup line?
ME
And RTB came up with 'shogging' and that doesn't make sense without 'slogging', so that would trash the whole teasing thread... Says the teaser.
Nighty night, Chumplet!
:-)
Aw, I would never kill you, S&M. You have such fun initials!
Actually, I just love Japanese food. It's a little hard to come by in my neck of the woods, so it's a rare and treasured moment to tuck in to some sushi or a nice, hot bowl of miso soup. Mmm.

If you don't stop talking about food I'll have to leave to go and get some.
I have to wait till morning to decide.
McK, I love gnomes. No matter how humble, there's no race like gnome.
I have a tee-shirt of two hip gnomes. Hangin' with my gnomies.
Oh and Chris! And probably Robin by this time, Sawyeresque. I love the beach.
But Lost was alot better the first year when they didn't seem to know where the story was going.
ME
Robin, check the thread, then share your Miss Snark story.
GB, I sacked a fiance too.
Yeah, you definitely don't want to go around saying you killed S&M.
Bernita hates gnomes!?
They tell you everything important that happened last week at the beginning. You tuned in too late.
Just popping in to say a big Thank You to Robin and Phoenix and their cast of judges for putting on a wonderful party!
Hey, EE. Hope you enjoyed the festivities!
Sorry, I am still examining the wood floor with a magnifying glass.
I'm back from ER and chores and all that stuff.
I intend to do a book cover or two tomorrow.
Awww... I want that t-shirt, Julie! But I'd prefer it to say "Rollin' with the gnomies" :)
Julie,
No.
She loves them for her crime scenes.
:-)
See, that's what I hate. The programme starts, you get half of last week's show, then it's off to the commercials for laundry powder. What if books were like that?
And everyone get ready to move again. Up out of your comfy seats. Come on, come on. Yes, you, too.
Blogger should have diacritical marks.
Ril, some books are!
Bless his heart, McK, but he mistook me for a romantic. *sigh* He liked to cuddle. And I'm about as cuddly as a rock.
Heh, you're killin me, Stick.
And Ril, if you can magic-mail me some miso, I'll be your devoted servant for as long as I can stand it. Which would apparently be about five seconds, but hey.

Admit it, you're all not reading comments, you have software that searches for keywords and writes posts
Yes, you think there are thirty pages left in your book and suddenly it ends and the rest is chapter 1 of the next book.
Work. It sucks! But it pays the bills while I write.
Yep- Sarah, I get it. I was doing my deal today, too. Ready for a laugh?
I'm a director at my place of employment. I actually have actual responsibility.
