The People Above And Below You

[Leonhart29]

^ is doing well but not well enough to quit the money machine

< Has been told that < should write full time

< Would do so but < has a powerful need to eat and keep a roof over <'s head.

V Thinks that it would be easy to do both.

[StoryJunkie]

^ thinks <'s an idiot

< gnashes teeth with worry everyday. (Is THIS the day we end up in debtor's prison?)

V familiar with such worry, but knows debtor's prison went the way of the dodo bird

[Leonhart29]

^ Worries too much

< Worries night and day about finances and if < is raising <'s kids right.

V Tries to subscribe to the "No Worries" brand of life

[Guest echtrae]

^ knows < surprisingly well

< tries not to worry, but does find it to be difficult

v has had enough about such things and is going to change the topic

[Leonhart29]

^ Doesn't like to think about worries.

< Is horny as hell and a bit lonely.

V Feels bad for <, knows of a way to alleviate that particular symptom, but will probably tease instead.

[Guest echtrae]

^ is in need of companionship

< is taken so suggest ^ invests in some batteries

v thinks ^ just needs to break out the toy box

[Leonhart29]

^ has been sneaking under <'s bed for a peek

< Wasn't suggesting that ^ help out personally

< Has batteries and knows how to use them

V is smiling like a fool

[Guest echtrae]

^ is not battery shy

< not smiling, but definitely smirking

v has a bit of a blush going

[Leonhart29]

^ Wants to see some blushing

< Is very comfortable with <'s nocturnal activities and doesn't blush easily

V Thinks < could be fibbing a bit

[dazzledfirestar]

^ Is indeed fudging the details of life.

< Likes fudge...

V Thinks maybe the sleep dep. is getting to <

[StoryJunkie]

^ sleep dep'd

< also kinda so

v will be an early riser

[Leonhart29]

^ Eye lids are drooping

< Is up early but that is completely normal

V Was able to sleep in a bit

[quamp]

^ A bit after ^'s post.

< Tries to get enough rest every night. Usually fails due to the high amount of Tejano music playing into the wee hours of the morning.

V Has no idea what Tejano music is.

[Leonhart29]

^ should feel grateful it's not mariachi music

< Knows Tejano music really well whether < wants to or not

V Doesn't know the purpose of Tejano music

[dazzledfirestar]

^ Is very right.

< Has no freakin' clue.

V Has a clue and is willing to share.

[quamp]

^ Tejano music's sole function seems to be to annoy white people.

< Tejano technically is music played by Mexican-American bands featuring the typical rock-and-roll setup with accordians and a brass section occasionally.

< Words are always in Spanish, usually dealing with love.

V Is glad that V doesn't have to listen to loud Tejano music in the wee hours of the morning.

[Leonhart29]

^ Is losing a bit of sleep to further the expanse of Tejano.

< Won't have to deal with ANY neighbors closer than one mile in less than a month.

V Has a neighbor they could do without.

[dazzledfirestar]

^ Would have been right a month ago.

< Hasn't met any of the neighbors since moving, so has yet to form an opinion about them.

V Would rather have never met their neighbors.

[Leonhart29]

^ Doesn't get out and about much

< Has a neighbor across the street at the house in town that's a child molester.

V Thinks that this neighbor should be rode out on a rail.

[dazzledfirestar]

^ Should do just that.

< Hasn't met the neighbors because < just moved in... and they're all just moving in too.

V Is sure we'll all meet eventually.

[Leonhart29]

^ Should have a "Get to meet everyone"/ house warming party.

< Met her closest neighbor when he stopped by to give us the low down on the rattler population.

< Will be having Rattlesnake chili in about 45 minutes (yeah - I walk around the property with a shovel and a hand gun just in case I miss with the shovel)

V thinks < can have all the Rattlesnake round-ups < wants - V will pass

[Guest echtrae]

^ has interesting dietary supplements

< hasn't had rattlesnake

v has never considered eating anything that they would have had to kill

[quamp]

^ Well, since everything that is edible has to die before one eats it, I'd have to "respectfully disagree" with that.

< Wouldn't mind sampling Leon's rattlesnake chili.

< Had rattlensnake before at a camp.

V Thinks < is weird for wanting to sample Leon's chili.

[Leonhart29]

^ Has good taste when it comes to chili

< Loved the chili and had it for lunch today as well.

V Can't envision eating something that slivered along the ground on it's belly

[redsliver]

^ swing and a miss

< will eat almost anything once and isn't weirded out by what an animal did or how it lived before consuming it.

V prefers meat that comes on a tray of styrofoam and wrapped in plastic.
