Great Thanksgiving!

[pam]

This has been a great Thanksgiving. I cooked a turkey, and it turned out okay! This was my first time hosting. We had guests: Dave and Judy Malcom, Peter, and Nalin. Judy brought the most delightful dishes - a squash and apple bake, a spumoni cake, and biscuits! I made the turkey, gravy, bread stuffing, green bean almondine, fruit salad sweet

It all sounds wonderful, except the fruit salad sweet potato souffle. There was originally a comma there, right? ; )

Bargle!

[pam]

lol, yes, a comma! ,,,,,,!!!!!!!!

You know I thought of today - "Bargle sprightly jovial!"

Which somehow leads to "The worm is alive" which as an adult just sounds sooooo wrong....

I've been playing Dungeons and Dragons lately. Somehow it's a lot more fun with out that crazy John guy there.

that still makes me ill to think of. I keep imagining biting into that souffle and getting a whole cooked grape.

your memory is amazing. I can't remember if I had a shower today and you can remember what little weirdos we were when we were 13. what the hell was the worm is alive about, anyway? I can't remember the context. I do remember the "get some socks, Pam" poem, thought. "Tie-dyed, purple, like two lights". Whatever happened to ol' Shann?

Who's the crazy John guy? I could never get into D&D, I always wanted to be a fairy, then lost interest after that. People would always say, " you could be an elf..." and I would think, "no. not the same." Or someone would hit me with a thunder phallus or what the hell ever else and I'd think, "I'm out. Unless I get electric eyeballs right now, I'm out."

Oh my god, a Thunder Phallus? What? I barely remember this... but I have some vague recollection of John Murry and my brother asking us to play dnd with them, and the bad wizard name he came up with was Bargle, and we spent like hours just laughing about the stupid name. Which somehow, I don't know, turned into this back and forth thing that went "Bargle!" "Bargle swift" "Bargle sprightly jovial!" How we got there, I have no clue. I also don't remember what the worm is alive thing was about, all I remember is walking home with you through our back yard neighbor's lot singing that song at the top of our lungs making worm motions with our fingers, and shrieking with laughter. And that somehow it turned into "INXS is alive" with more shrieking laughter. I don't think I'd ever laughed so much in my life, which is probably why I remember it.

I want electric eyeballs!!!!
