I'll probably join you two, as well! If Spencer is back by that weekend, then that Wednesday in August may be the last time that I hang out with friends for a while.

Wow, all the frogs are out tonight! (I'm going to put on clothes now.)

Cool. But when do you graduate? Damn, those typos. I'm trying to type with a towel around my torso! Anyhoo...your new avatar threw me!

Evelyn, just tell your guy that you want some more sex right now. He should be able to help you out, don't you think? Have fun, sweetie!

Nice Googling! Google brings up this. http://mapage.noos.fr/dardelf3/Corto.html ...and much more... For the record, I graduarted with a BFA from Otis Parsons, and you are not my first Parisian friend. Sucker!

Hugo Pratt...the illustrator.

Yes, I've been wanting to do this for a while now. Go for it, Evelyn!

I'm so sorry Wingi and Bill, I walked away from the computer for a quick shower. I'm weird, I know. The goggles are taking a well-deserved hiatus, but I was just wondering what this new avatar was about. WTH?

That's so sweet. I'm very close to my mother, too. We're having a fancy brunch tomorrow morning. I'll be sure to tell my mother of you and your daughter. What a nice relationship that you two must have.

"IT"...bwahahahahaaaa!!!

Yessss...something like that.

Wait a minute! It looks very much like the top part of a fashion illustration.

WTH is this?

Cool.

Where the heck would I go? I'm not married, but I'm not single, either. How about "happily taken?" Yes, my friend, and I don't need no stinkin thread for that.

Hi Speedracer. I just looked at the clicky and read your story. It was probably the better solution for your situation, if the baby bird was dying, anyway, and you had no idea how to help it. I think that I saw your snake's picture before in another thread. I've loved snakes since I was in high school. A friend of mine had one, but it was larger than yours. Yours is really gorgeous, though. Getting back on topic, death is a natural and inevitable part of this world among humans and wild animals alike. Natural selection and survival of the fittest guarantees that some animals, like my baby bird, which I believe was a runt, who was unable to learn to fly and fell from it's nest, will inevitably die. It's sad, but it happens. I can deal with the reality of that. I'm not shocked or horrified that you fed a dying bird to the snake. I am hoping that a bird, animal or person's life is not prolonged, if it is in pain or hurt and dying. Sometimes, death is best, and if you can nourish another animal/human with a dead one's meat, then I'm all for it. Like many others, I eat quail, duck, turkey, goose, chicken and eggs. Those, except the eggs, were all baby birds once, too. No worries...I'm sure that you did what you could with what you had.

That sounds like something that would happen to Lucille Ball!

Yeah. Then when you're done with that, hump his right leg for me. Note that he prefers left leg humps, which is why I prefer humping his right leg. I'll be happy to oblige. Sadly, I could see that happening. I'll just stick to a hello hug.

Are you calling ME a weird, obnoxious, horny as shit person, too? Nevermind.

Clay, you'll have a great time if you hang out with Nick's friends! He knows some pretty cool, fun, down-to-earth people.

The realities of life suck. I'll join in with the downers by sharing the following. I tried to save a broken, abandoned baby bird from dying late last night, and it died this morning, anyway. Life's a bummer. Then again, I tried to help. That's all that any of us can do is try to make a difference, right?

It's normal to be up and down at different times in your life. Nobody is always happy or even-tempered. I also have good, bad, ugly, pretty, up, down and everything in between days. It must be more difficult for you because of what you are around, the people and life that you had to leave behind, and everything that you have to deal with daily. (At times, my BF has had it quite rough, as well, so I can relate.) It's not easy to deal with the emotional and mental mind-F that can happen when put into certain situations and away from family/friends. Anyone in your situation would have a hard time, but you will be ok because you are stronger than you think.
