Welcome one and all to the Aroma Cafe. Fresh beveridges, hot, cold and all nonalcoholic. Great atmosphere and scintilating conversation abound.
Recap of yesterday:
Snata Clasu wone First to the Forum for the third time running.
But has gone for the weekend leaving it open for everyone else.
Afgncaap5 (Captain Of The Mangar) is away for a week.
Odradek had thunderstorm problems and lost her electricity supply, but all is well again.
Bahb the saxophonist came in twice with his Sax fairy Twinkie, who proceeded to sprinkle fairy dust all over the place. Twice. Subsequently we have had to sort out the cleaning bot who had a fit of the giggles. It is ok now. Bahb, however has left Twinkie the fairy in our custody for now. She eats bits of donut and drinks something called 'mood juice' but only by the thimble full as it is potent stuff. this is what gives Bahb his inspiration to play.
Pierrot the parrot does a mean immitation of Bahb's sax.
Dr John is currently asleep on the couch.
Odradek's cat Digi also eats butter pecan ice cream and both of them are looking forward to meeting Greebo T. Cat at some point.
Odradek tried a cup of Redbeards Brew, but it mesmerised her.
Odra & Redbeard discussed their cats for a while. RB is cruel to his and often gets them to lick out yogurt pots, which get stuck on their heads. it makes him laugh, but he said it is cute!
Lil misses her cats.
And that's about it.
The IIEM is on as I have to go soon.
just order your drink, non alcoholic only. It will appear and you will enjoy!
Have fun.

Hah! First to the Forum....first to the Forum!
*chants and does a little victory dance, which no one is there to see save Ook, Pierrot and co. Digi sneers, but in an indulgent way*
Ah well.
*fixes self a FTTF coffee (NOT a RBB), settles down on sofa for nap*

Well done!
Now I really must go.
See you later.
Night gang. *waves to Ook, Pierrot and Twinkie who is flying around and around Pierrot and Ook's heads*
*B-17 changes filters in IIEM and heads off out the door, carrying the cleaning bot's dust bag full of fairy dust*

*twitches, wakes, yawns*
Mmph. Still all groggy from that coffee.
*blinks twice, then rises, displacing Diogenes who has been sleeping on her head*
Sorry about that, dear.
Oh, well, s'pose l ought to get going. Let's see: the llEM's on auto; good, good. l'll head for bed, then. Perils of living in an alternate timezone...
Going to be all right, everyone?
*Diogenes stalks over to nap on Dr. John's duvet. Twink is settled atop the llEM, bathing it in faint blue light, though thankfully not with dust. Pierrot is humming idly to himself, and Ook is in the rafters, reading. All is well*
Right, then. Til tomorrow, kids. Take care...

And l don't care what anyone says; l retain FTTF status.
Hee. Got that, Snatu?
*with a good natured, slightly mischevious and decidedly sleepy grin, grabs a RBB for the road -- should insomnia strike -- and slips out the door*

Hello Superdreamer - there is a coffee machine around here, but I always prefer making my own. You can adjust it to taste a lot better.
So, what w**k are you doing?

Sits down beside ook with pen in hand, slurping coffee!

*comes in through back door*
Gmornin y'all! I brought the donuts.
I won't be in much today, I'll just pop in from time to time and see that all's well. So I'll leave the IIEM going.
*puts some of donuts out on green compote*
Looks like Affi found those missing hard drives at Los Alamos. I think he should have stood up and taken the credit, though, instead of hiding them behind a copier machine.
*gets self an A L Special*

Any problems with the IIEM yet? I don't want to tear it apart until I know for sure that the glitch is using it.
