Shake it like a polaroid picture

Our evening activity to entertain our out-of-town visitor was a trip to a Pimps & Hos & Elvis & Scary Scary Unconvincing Transvestites With Beards party at a co-op on campus, to which we were invited by one of my SI classmates and one of Robin's enginerding ones. We were dressed as neither pimps nor hos, which was rather surprisingly disappointing to me.

Beer flowed in abundance, but Thomas ("Frenchie") was kind enough to hop along to the kitchen and get me a glass of water. They played Hey Ya! and I danced my little head off, I spoke French to the francophones, and I danced in a circle with my pepys from SI. Big loud dancy parties with strangers are not usually my style, but I had a pretty good time.

Cheryl's and my favorite part of the evening was when the guy who'd been wandering around the room, awkwardly nodding at everyone in it, finally approached us and sat down and talked to us. Apparently we bored him after a while, because he said, "Well, I'm going to be going home now" and got up and... went and sat across the room. Seriously. If you're going to lie to blow us off, at least leave the room.

Now I'm home and it's time to get into bed and curl up with a good rough draft.

I got to talk to a priest in French. It was fun.

I got to talk to a guy dressed as a priest in English.

This needs a bit of further explanation, for I fear her story makes us look like *we're* the losers. The guy who "went home" got bored with us because we started to ignore him and bored him on purpose. At least I did....

Also, you forgot the part about the potato.

This is true. Heh heh, potato.

Oooh! Potato story. Come on, spit it out.

There was a guy who we think was supposed to be a devil, but he wasn't red. His head-thing was sort of flesh-colored and had multiple rows of horns, so it just looked like he had roots, like a potato that had started to sprout.

Hee hee. That's funny.
