I dunno. As I think I've said here before -- Liz and Neko would be up there in the choices for my dream threesome. In a twisted sort of way, the fact that we are often in the same city is half the battle...

(PS -- missed you guys. Not sure why, but I did.)

Hopefully you have better friends than I.
Everyone who uses finger quotes should have the shit smacked out of them on GP.

We're only like the bestest friends ever!

That's because we're still hella cool. You ain't never getting in Brad Pitt's pants unless you loosen up some.

2 (except for the same city part, though a young Neko once lived just over the Columbia from me).

On a related note, I finally picked up the new(ish) live Neko album, which was previously mentioned by someone here (Manfred?). Really, really good. I heart Neko Case. Or I penis Neko Case. I only hope Neko \|/ Ollie.

"What time." After I meet them, though, it will not be mixed company and the proper response will be "Fuck Yeah."

I thought it was usually the girl who needed a couple hundred for a "situation".

I saw a PBS thing on women prison guards. They were interviewing an inmate who seemed to be trying to sound educated for PBS, and his comment was that perhaps women guards are a bad idea, since :
"If we have a riot and take hostages I'm going to get to know her on a sexual plane."

Not a made up word, but it was a made up phrase, admittedly one I'd like to work it into convo.

I have realized (on my own - no one had to tell me) that I have picked up an annoying phrase. When talking to my secretary, to paralegals, to junior associates, etc., I've started saying "You know what I mean?" at the end of requests. Like I'll say "Please match the proper signature pages up and put them in the folder for that document; you know what I mean?" or "I really need some help tonight with this closing. You know what I mean?"

I'm not sure where I picked it up, but now every time I say it I shudder inside. Must stop.

You know what I mean?
Do you say it in a much louder (some might say piercing) voice? If so, I may know you. And it is really annoying. Though, the person I know does it to friends, so maybe you aren't her. Usually with her and me it occurs when she's saying things that I totally don't agree with but don't feel like arguing with her about ("I mean, I just can't ever have sex with someone until we've dated a while. [pause] YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? "). I think if I said "oh yeah of course" during the pause, she would not do the "you know what I mean?" thing to me.

I have a friend who can make women swoon by simply going over the fine print in a mortgage application. His voice is deeeeep, and he has a sexy Egyptian accent. I wait a few days to delete his voicemails, just so I can hear that voice. Of course, like all of my hot friends, he's gay.

He did take me to Hawaii though, and everyone there was wondering what a hot guy like him was doing married to someone like me, so I probably shouldn't be complaining.

Did you take a sexual plane to Hawaii?
