Not my ideal party
But my friend has long been postulating the idea of a "Come Dressed As Crow Party." Initially I laughed this off, as the idea of a bunch of people gathering in a house dressed in lumberjack shirts, flappy wigs and big rubber noses was too absurd to comprehend, not to mention a touch creepy, but the idea seems to have gathered support - even my sister now reckons it should go ahead...

Fucking furries

It would certainly make hitting on the girls a bit weird.

( girlinthehole, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:21, Reply)

Given that I basically dress like a middle-aged lesbian, yes it would.

(LongJohnBaldry, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:22, Reply)

Like Crow would even consider that.

Get rid of your sofa.
And give your guests statues to sit on.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:22, Reply)

All conversation to be squawked from between statues.

(LongJohnBaldry, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:26, Reply)

And you might as well let everyone shit on their statues as well.
You'll be able to keep to authentic that way.

I still think this is an excellent idea.
I can't remember if I mentioned my feathered cape at that point or not.

I can't remember whether you've discussed this with The Fat Man
He's been talking about going through old photos to allow people to come dressed as the Various Ages of Crow. Like he could fit into one of our old school uniforms...
(LongJohnBaldry, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:38, Reply)

No, it was you who told me about it.
I've not seen the Fat Man since that time with the table. At least, I don't think so.

Oh, I know it's been a while, but he's had the idea for a while.
And thinking about it, no, I don't think you have seen him since then.

SUCH a lovely last image of someone, don't you think?

( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:43, Reply)

Quite a...colourful one, certainly.

I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE AIMED FOR THE SHIRT

( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:49, Reply)

YOU DIDN'T EXACTLY MISS THE SHIRT

(LongJohnBaldry, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:53, Reply)

FUCK, I'M SORRY

( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:54, Reply)

THAT'S QUITE ALRIGHT

(LongJohnBaldry, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:56, Reply)

And you wonder why I didn't drink a lot on Saturday.

( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 14:57, Reply)

And I also wonder why I did.

(LongJohnBaldry, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 15:00, Reply)

My logic brain is not screwed on today.
I probably should have something to eat before I leave the house, I just can't be bothered.
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 15:03, Reply)

By contrast, my already addled brain has become incredibly drowsy since I had lunch
Seems you can't win with this one.
(LongJohnBaldry, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 15:09, Reply)

There is nothing to eat in the house apart from cake and beanburgers
I might just hang on and eat something after the doctor's, though I'm trying to save money by NOT eating out. Urgh.

How is the new office?
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 15:11, Reply)

A very pleasant change. I have carpets on the floors and blinds on the windows for the first time in over two years.
Plus I also feel like I'm getting some work done these days. (Well, not this afternoon particularly, but generally more than I was before)
(LongJohnBaldry, Tue 25 Jan 2011, 15:13, Reply)

When do they stop paying you?
I wish you luck, btw. Hope you come out of it mainly in one piece.
