Crossed Purposes: April 2002
Gwennie Posted Apr 14, 2002
Although one can make a vast array of delicious snacks with tofu, I wouldn't have said that any of them were "it" Pan, especially at this time of day...
Please don't get me trying to work out what "it" is because I'll start to want "it" and wish that I could have "it" when I don't even know what "it" is that I want! 
*Tries to take her mind off "it" by removing a Lego brick from under the sleeping E and covering him up with Mari's latest knitting venture*

What's that sound? What? ...*pinches E.'s nose shut just long enough to wake him a bit and see that he's fully on his side...the sawing ceases...*
Well Gwennie...it's been a full 24 hours for me...(if you reverse the number lookie what you get! ...it's 42 Gwennie, poor old thing) 
...*yells back...* I'm sleeping in the alley..with any luck at all something lude might happen out there...in the dark, in the alley, in the fog.

No need to fear: I burnt that armchair, but I still would like to sit on this couch... I think I can smoke safely...

Oh good! I wouldn't like to see the joint going up in flames .... as it were!

There is a clearly definded line of doubt and uncetainty, and I think the possibilities of this thing burning down are...
Pan´s got a fireextinguisher... so we should be safe...

*Shoves the stinky armchair out into the alley. Looks up and down for signs of Seth, Sultandude and/or Dragonfly. Sees no one but an old pair of shoes jutting out from a dark shadowy place. Decides to reenter the Pub, but can't find the door. All she sees is a stairway that apparantly wends its way in a celestial direction.*
Oh 
!! I'm only 78! I'm to young to go... 
I still haven't climbed Everest, or even left this Pub in two years!

Ummmm... actually, not really... I know she was around within the last 12 hours, as she had a post in one of my threads, but that's about as close as I can nail her temporal location down...

*7 hours later*
I think we have to start a searchparty... I think I will first have a look if there´s a conversation thread for the alley... I think that´s where I saw her going to... who knows what they are up to out there. Who wants to know what there up to out there?
Or I´ll have a first...
* at the idea of a in the alley....*

Well, thog, I´m happy that you are going to be leader of our party, and we will advance into that direction...

::picks himself up off the floor and, with an irritated glance at E, draws his nailgun from its holster onside his invisible boot, and advances to the door. Kicks the door open, and leaps out into the alley::
THRACKACKACKACKACKACKACKACKACKACKACKACKAAAA!!
::peers through the dust raised by the three thousand tiny nails that just ripped the alley to peices::
Hmmmmm.... I don't think there's anybody out here, E. Here, you go take a look -- I need a
