Here are the Night-hens, sort of live blogging at Panera in SE Mpls., while having coffee.
MD: Instead of raisins, this should have currants in it.
TL: It should have chocolate chips.
TL: Why does my back always hurt?
MD: Because you kick people all night.
TL: I don’t kick people all night.
MD: Then you kick them for two hours.
TL: I didn’t kick people for two hours.
MD: Then you slapped, or punched, or whacked them with your bow staff when you’re not kicking them.
TL: And it’s only for an hour.
TL: Mom it’s b-o, not bow.
MD: Ha Ha your staff has BO.
TL: Handy, isn’t it?
TL: The Toga party was fun. (Referencing an event at the Nightwriter’s work, yesterday)
MD: Did you have to wear a toga? I don’t have a toga, I’m over-dressed.
TL: I saw a whole bunch of ladies walking past wearing togas and I said “What’s with all the togas?” and they said, “Oh, were having a toga party, feel free to come over.” Then I went, and chugged apple cider.
TL: There was a ring toss there with all the bottles stacked right next to each other and a sign that said ‘Spin the Bottle’ and I gasped. And then I saw a sign underneath it that said ‘(Just Kidding), Ring Toss’. There was a parade with a bunch of cross-dressing, ugly, old guys. Because the woman they chose as home-coming queen didn’t want to do it, so they chose the next best person and it was a guy. The homecoming queen was wearing a white frilly dress and had a cigar in his mouth. He also had a mustache.
Hey, There goes the gym shorts and loafers guy.
MD: He’s just wandering around.
RM: He’s loafing.
TL: Go commando with confidence.
RM: Why did you say that?
MD: She’s just into that kind of thing. Tell us, how does it feel?
TL: (With hand raised) It feels, it feels . . . . sigh.
A woman walking by whispers in RMs ear.
RM: (to lady) Well, thank you, bless your heart.
TL: What did she say?
RM: She said “You’re a very attractive lady.”
TL: You know this picture is going to ruin any credibility I have on the internet.
MD: You think you have credibility?
TL gives MD the evil eye.
RM: Oh, we need to go.
MD: Barnacles.
MD: That ends this session of whatever this is.
RM, it’s time to start worrying when your youngest says things like, “Go commando with confidence.” Actually, never mind about the worrying part, just make sure to check her every time she leaves the house. You can’t be too careful these days.
What do you think I should check her for? Lice?
What the ….?
TL: You keep using that phrase. I don’t think it means what you think it means.
Btw, you’re grounded!
RM: Now you know what it’s like to be me; I have strange women in coffee shops whispering in my ear all the time, telling me how attractive I am.
Excuse me? Grounded?
You’re the one who actually owns the pair of pants that advertises going commando!!!
I didn’t say she was strange and tell me more about these women.
There will be no extraneous women for anybody!
As for the lice… well, she is at about that age.
Ooooo, that’s funny. The l-ice age.
Strange women indeed….obviously blind as well.
I went commando once while stationed overseas….was debriefed before the mission. I was feeling quite confident until a couple of extraneous women approached me and started whispering in my ear.
Haha… you de-briefed.
Holy cow! It’s a family affair!
Well, I don’t go commando, and I’ve never had any strange women come up and whisper in my ear in a coffee shop. Though that woman did say (out loud) that I would look just like my mother when I got older.
And blah blah blahdy blah….I’m really tired.
Why must you all torture me???
Extraneous woman? Going Commando? Debriefing? Whispering in ears.
If I made any comment that is coming to mind, I would almost certainly forfeit my life. Only difference between any of the comments would be which one of you would complete the act.
Still trying to figure out what an extraneous woman is…..are they scary?
Kevin- Mwahahahaha….
TL’s just a diversion.
‘Ware the Reverend Mother.
Well I think I built up a little goodwill with RM, so at least she would kill me relatively quickly.
The rest of you I’m fairly certain would put the Saw movies to shame.
