Neither Nakedness nor Orgying

I got invited to Melanie's house for a party in my honor. (I assume all parties are in my honor unless the host specifically tells me otherwise.) The evite listed several names I didn't know, so it was tough to know what to expect. Should I be sexy? Demure? Would there be charades? Would there be nudity? I shaved my legs carefully just in case.

It occurs to me that my years of wondering about possible party nudity are surely numbered. There will come a year not too far in the future when nudity at a party will be a reason to leave. But right now I always anticipate nakedness and orgying.

The party did turn out to be the charades kind, which led to me groping Wendy's breast while clumsily attempting to pantomime a stethoscope. I wonder how long I will be at this age where neither nudity nor charades cause me to leave the party in an offended sulk. I suspect my stethoscope demonstration probably pushed Wendy over that line.

i vote for him. only a man would be lazy enough to ask the internet to help him eat pie instead of actually going and buying one.

he also appears to be english: http://members.gardenweb.com/members/chambochae

Or making one. Everyone knows that any decent woman should be able to make a perfect pie with no recipe and merely whatever delicious fresh fruits she has lying around her immaculate and ultramodern home.

Not to mention that if your ultramodern home is really immaculate, you can't possibly have much time to look for pie on the internet.

my ultramodern home is cleaned in the night by magical brownies, because i am such a good person.

for the record, i am referring to brownies the elves, not brownies the dessert.

My ultramodern home is cleaned in the night by fudge. At least, those parts of it made of cocoa powder and chopped nuts*.

*In the future, all homes will be made of delicious dessert ingredients. That's how ultramodern it is.

i wish i had some dessert. damn my non-ultramodern ass. if only i had pie, or was female enough to make one. oh wait.

you know, honestly though, anybody CAN make pie using whatever fruit they have lying around. pie is the simplest thing to make ever. i mean, perhaps not as simple as a box mix of brownies, but still pretty damn simple. you make some crust (vinegar mixed with the egg first because it gives it that added flavor) and lots of butter. put some fruit soaked in some liquid sugar concoction in the crust. bake. man now i want pie. and a la mode. (ice cream is also simple to make. particularly the fun way with a coffee can and lots of rock salt. oh the hours of rolling enjoyment.)

Oh, you made me hungry for pie! Or fudge. Or brownies (the dessert, not the elves). Mmmm.

About a boy. When. WHEN? Tomorrow? In the new millenium.

you can.... make... pie!!! Why didn't anyone tell me!!! And here was I searching for a website to enable the pie dispenser on the front of my computer.

Just because it's called a PC does not mean it is actually a Pie Computer.
