wow, that's going to help you sleep, isn't it?

Good night all.

A zipless snog, eh Mags? Fabulous story.

Welcome back, Slippery Ramparts. I do indeed remember those parties. The stairs thing, surely, is that you want to be somewhere where thighs touch, but were you aren't alone in case things get to heavy too fast.

Now... that's a question. Favouritest party, ever?

*thinks*

Actually, it's a no brainer. It's been going on 24/7 except for two brief hiatus for almost 10 years.

My 40th birthday was a pretty solidly good party. As was my graduation last June.

*The sound of a piano is heard playing softly in one corner of the Salon*
*One of the bots is seated at it, tickling the ivories, elegent, hair slicked back on its metal skull, wearing a smoking jacket and looking for all the world like a cybernetic Noel Coward*
*Greensleeves it turns out is perched on a leather stool tucked in the curve of the grand piano*
*She is waif-like this time, brittle and graceful, hair cropped, wearing a long waistless dress and the inevitable cigarette is in a holder at least a foot long. Her nails are, of course, bright emerald green*

*The splash of notes on the piano resolves itself into a tune* - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Vw6Teu65TU

Quite for no reason
I'm online for a season
And typing all night
With internet wierdies
Hippies and beardies
Which cannot be right.
Everyone's here
- and ready to play,
Nobody cares
- what people say,
'Cos the Atelier
Is really much merrier
and Facebook seems trite.
Online last night -



I went to a marvelous party
With GT and Taffy and Tod
It was over at Lils
Full of gossip and thrills
And Z prescribed pills
Which was odd.
Titania was wakeful at midnight
And carried on posting till four
We knew the excitement was bound to begin
When Ag reminisced about parents and sin
And Teuchter cracked open the tonic and gin
I couldn't have liked it more.



I went to a marvelous party
I must say the fun was intense
Bluebottle returned
And the rest of us learned
Where he'd been, whither and whence.
Bald Bloke and Phil went off drinking
But building befuddled B4.
Young Mags had a secret and summery kiss
And Beatrice was moving which pleased her young miss
While Santra keeps posting from that place and this
I couldn't have liked it more.



I went to a marvelous party
The Imp had a go at the Bird
You'd never have guessed
From reading the rest
What's happened chez Happy Nerd.
It snowed really hard on the Thinker
But KerrAvon said it would thaw.
The Owl spent a couple of nights as the boss
There've been updates from Scotland from Pedros Ecosse
But Marv got locked out, we're bewailing his loss,
I couldn't have liked it more.



Lovely Solnushka
And her babushka
Warm up our hearts
But where is dear Milla
While clever Lentilla
Is making her masks?
And sadly life is
- harder yet
For the charming
- Space Cadette
And still pretty Shitty
For darling Witty
And so we all spend our time
With each other on line...



I went to a marvelous party
The Mysterious Stranger was there.
Egon dropped by
And Strangely was high
And B'El reminded us all how to share.
Poor Mini is suffering migraines
And Sporky is suffering more
Hypatia's been stranded out in the cold
Mol's eldest daughter has made her feel old
FG I'm know rocked when she rolled
I couldn't have liked it more.



I went to a marvelous party
So many beginnings and ends
The Ant's done a bunk
With Eats Mice and the Monk
Which is why we should toast "Absent Friends"
But Amy delivered young Notepad
And V has accepted our lure.
J'au-aemne arrived last but not least
Poor Lilac's away fighting the beast
But Tonks has returned so our number's increased
I couldn't have liked it more.



I went to a marvelous party,
Runes has a wonderful coat
MR asked a question
and made a suggestion
that put modernists up for a vote.
Though Bookmouse has left us so sadly,
d'Elephant came back to the Shore,
Young Vip did the right thing and gritted her path
Mr D dropped by once or twice for a laugh
And Ben started knitting a moebius scarf
I couldn't have liked it more.



I went to a marvelous party
Bagpuss is looking for work
While Kelli returned
And we all learned
That GDZ's boss is a jerk.
We talked about growing old gracefully
And Lil, who can't feel the floor
Said, A, it's a question of being sincere,
And B, if you're supple you've nothing to fear.
Then she swung upside down from a glass chandelier,
I COULDN'T have liked it more.

I dont know what to say ' bravo '

*Witty jumps to her feet.*





Ben, I take my hat off to you! Thank you, that was quite an effort!

Bravo! What a marvelous party this is

*Breaks into wild *

Brava! Brava! BRAVA!

*Begins stamping feet and whistling, Scala style*

Blimey, thats a cool poem Greensleeves!

Awesome poem

First snog I would have been around 11 with a boy a couple of years older than me, we went to the same summer kids scheme for a few years.

Best snog was probably a few days ago just after S told me he loves me Fist time a boy has said that to me (yes I love him too of course I do) I'm still walking on clouds and get a wee thrill every time we say it.

Welcome to Slippery

My many apologies for being somewhat erm distracted of late.

*applauds wildly, whilst laughing and crying both*

for Greensleeves. I was going to make a Divine Comedy pun, but following the link I realise they weren't the first to do that song.

Marvellous, absolutely brilliant

I was engaged at the age of six and remember walking around the playground holding hands with my intended. I'm fairly sure there was kissing too, although I don't actually remember that.

I sit on our stairs reasonably regularly to read, having just picked up a book to look something up and found myself drawn in. Last night it was two hours reading Adrian Mole.

Mol

Astounding, Greensleeves!
