Title: "One Cupcake Over the Line"
Post by: theinevitable on January 19, 2014, 05:52:24 pm: Could Wombat imagine a birthday cupcake so large that even she herself could not eat it?

Why did she create so many figments who want to make fun of her favorite rock star?

Is this plot going anywhere or are we all doomed to live forever as character studies?

Happy birthday! Please don't get bored of us anytime soon. I like the story so far, who cares what the publishers say.

Happy birthday Wombat!!!

Post by: theinevitable on January 19, 2014, 08:41:43 pm: I am glad you like the threads. Every time I kind of think "oh no I really bombed this time."

For your entertainment: there is a beautiful woman with a sweet smile who is always very friendly at work, with a little twinkle in the corner of her eye. Eventually she stopped coming in so frequently, but I saw her at a concert the other day. I was standing nearby and trying to work myself up to say something, and then I tried to lean over and say hi to another friend. And. I tripped and ended up with my face in the cute customer's hair.
In the movie this would have been "cute" but in reality I kind of stammered some gibberish and then avoided her for the rest of the night.

Ha ha you say that in the singular... I have a very old friend whose birthday is the day after mine. She came to visit from New York. On Friday night we had dinner at a tapas place that she says is better than any in NYC. On Saturday morning we had dim sum. For Saturday dinner we had Ethiopian. Some where in there we had scones and the better part of a dozen cupcakes. Sunday morning we had bagels she brought from NY and then she left, thank god, or I probably would have exploded.

What, no? I didn't do anything except for brighten it up a bit. I guess I did crop out the barbecue pit because I thought it looked more parklike without that in the picture. I may have saturated the colors slightly.

Hey, this is YOUR birthday thread. You brought the magic. Now go have a post birthday cupcake. It's kinda like hair of the dog.
