Um, Unless you go to St. John,. the USVI is a complete shithole. I mean COMPLETE SHITHOLE. Go to the BVI instead, if yiu have to visit virgins.

Yeah, I've heard that. In college I dated a boy whose family lived there. (He only visited on holidays but otherwise was at boarding school growing up.)

Did you get someplace warm or are you still freezing?

Yes, doofus, I read that, that's why I'm asking. Was wondering if you had gone somewhere warm or if you were still sitting in a freezing house. I worry about my friendslist: it's a bad habit. I think I need more hobbies.

No, you don't seem to understand. MY FURNACE IS BROKEN. I need to stay here in case it fixes its self. The thermometer says 45, but I think that's as low as it goes.

In case it fixes itself? You gonna do a spell on it or something? Do broken things on ships fix themselves?

No, I'm not on the ship. I'm at home. That's why my furnace is broken. Savvy?

I KNOW. I'm just sayin'. Are you used to broken things fixing themselves?

This conversation would make a lot more sense if you could hear the smahtass tone in my voice.

A der! I thought all conversations between new englanders were automatically put into "sarcasm" mode.

take out your violin! I have no place to go. Other than a bar, and I am actually kind of legally ordered to stay out of bars for the next 12 months.

Also, the furnace man is on his way now. I just wonder how long the damn thing hasn't been working.

Also: I once kept a Betta on my desk (when I had that sort of job) and my secretary went into my desk for a pen or something and saw my vial of bloodworms. She immediately reported me for having OMG! Drugs in my desk! I was a weird-o so I HAD to be on drugs!

Come monday, there was a new "no pets" policy firmly in place at the office after I offered to shoot the bloodworms into my arm so they could see the effects.

OMG you did NOT just a-der me.

I actually had something similar happen in my apartment-I had only turned my heat up really low until the cold snap right before Thanksgiving, and I hadn't realized it wasn't working at all. My heat is included in my rent so they were amazed that I don't keep it turned up to 92 like everyone else.

ALL WEIRDOS TAKE DRUGS. Your fish was a weirdo. My buddy who works during the week has a rodent skull on his desk.
