OK - technically I don't move in until February 1st, but that's no reason
why I can't start the party early!
Here are the rules... this party is BYOB, and you must bring me a
present...
so... rule #1 is, name your booze....
and rule #2 is, tell me what you are bringing me for my home...
obviously, you can't bring me a toaster... that's kind of hard to give in a
forum party... give me something intangible that you think I may need in my
new home... I'm sure you can think of something...
and no duplicates... it is so hard to return intangibles at the store...
obviously, I'm not giving myself any gifts here, but as I mentioned in the
other topic, I'm making my special Margaritas for everyone! Fresh-squeezed
juice, and with plenty of kick! Have a tall one on me!

and I bring intangibles I cannot name and imponderables taht defy
description... but most of all I bring friendship..... and a tad bit of
lust

Tequila...well-aged and mellow...mmmm
I bring to your house the gifts of comfort and peace...and a strange little
sparkle in the night that adds to the feeling of comfort in your home.

I bring chocolate martinis... and since I know you have a toddler, I gift
your house with the magical ability to always stay fresh and clean and
pretty... even if it looks slightly lived-in.

As this is my party, I have decided that it is appropriate for me, as
hostess, to follow different rules than the rest...
with each new alchohol, I will propose a toast to the guest who brought
it... and with it a thankyou for each gift...
but I will start later, as I have to get ready for work...

OK... back again...
Feral... a home without friendship is lonely, and without lust it is
dull... both are welcome additions to my new place... thank you so
much...
*raises a shotglass of Jager*... Feral - to a true friend who has always
had my back... may the spikes on your stomping boots never grow dull...
Starlight... comfort and peace are things I need bucketloads of right
now... your gift comes well-timed... and the sparkle is delightful - what a
perfect touch...
this tequila is far too fine to be mixed in my Margaritas... so I pour it
out into the shotglass... hold it to the light... Starlight... to a sweet
girl who brings light and fragrance wherever she goes... may every day be
marked by the same sparkling quality you have bestowed on my home...
Meranda... what a practical gift! as a mother, you certainly know how a
house with children can look like a disaster area after a tornado... your
gift is better than a gift-certificate for a house-cleaning agency! Thank
you!
mmm... chocolate martinis... never had one, but it sounds divine! ... to
Meranda... the quintessential mommy... the one who comforts, nourishes,
and defends her charges with all the rage of a mother wolf... may you
always feel as loved and cared for as you make your children and all who
surround you feel... you deserve it... *hugs*

I bring bottles of Guinness, so cold and old you need a butter knife to
drink it. And a golden apple that says KALLISTI on one side and has an
image of Ganesh on the other, so that all material obstacles will vanish
from your sight so long as you stay true to yourself. Just because you can
never have too much, more friendship and Lust for you! I might recommend a
bit of Gluttony as an apéritif if it pleases the lady's palate.
Cheers and best of luck.

Thank you, Rogue, for the apple and all it brings... a good reminder to
remain fearlessly true to myself... and, even though you are breaking the
rules and repeating a gift, I forgive you... because you are right... you
can't possibly have too much friendship or lust! And I will put the
gluttony in the cupboard next to the chocolate... to remind myself that
sometimes some lavish indulgence is in order...
*cracks open a bottle of Guinness* cheers to my friend Rogue... may the
gifts he gives return on him tenfold (except maybe the gluttony... a little
goes a long way with that *grins*)
Damn... starting to get a buzz here... LOL

Oh, it's easy to make a chocolate martini. Just shake together two parts of
the best vanilla vodka (your favorite) with one part Godiva Chocolate
liqueur and a few ice cubes, then pour chilled drink (without ice cubes...
leave those in the shaker) into a martini glass that has been artfully
decorated with swirls of chocolate syrup. You can optionally garnish with a
cocoa powdered rim or chocolate curls... or if you want to be really
indulgent, put a hershey's kiss in the glass. It's sweet and the strength
of it really sneaks up on you. You can also use any creme de cacao in lieu
of Godiva... but why use anything but Godiva chocolate in a celebratory
drink?
Let's see... can't drink Jager, since that unfortunate night so many years
ago...straight tequila is fight juice for me... and I don't drink beer.
*takes a margarita from the margarita tray and goes to mingle*

I am thinking... with all the booze, and all the lust the boys keep
insisting on bringing... what the hell is this party going to turn into?
*grins*
Maybe we need Callei, Mistress of Orgies, and Shade, Lord of Smut to
arrive... and the Devinity and his little blonde... let's get this party
started! I want the Hawaii contingent!
Not to mention, some people from the west coast... and one or two from
Korea... and other places overseas... I want a full house!

MJ: "unfortunate night"? Didn't seem too unfortunate to me, and a certain
Greek-named individual might disagree as well. ^_^

Leaves and comes back in with several green tinted, unlabelled
bottles...
I also bring black berry mead from the winecellar of Feral... made by my
hand...

god... all I can think of right now... "beer then liquor, never sicker..."

goodgood... but any new members still have to come with booze and gift, or
they won't be let in the door to all the fun...
PAR-TEEEEEEEE!

Congratulations, Schiz! To your party, I will bring Johhny Walker, black
label. To be served neat.
And for you, I bring the gift of warmth and safety. Your home will always
be just that: A home. Somewhere for you and the ones you love to go to when
you need to relax, or escape form the outside wirld. Somewhere where you
can rest and recharge without having to worry about anything negative or
icky.

thank you, thank you, thank you, Merry... two things I need a lot... I
never felt that my old home was a place of safety... it was often invaded
by extreme negativity...
and as for warmth... LOL... the room I am staying in now is so archaic, it
is actually unheated... in the middle of a New England cold spell, well,
it's brutal! I CRAVE WARMTH!!!
*raises a glass of Johnny Walker* to you, Merry, and to me... and to all
single moms who see it as an adventure and not a burden! Here's to
laughter, and sleepless nights... cuddles and tantrums... fun and
frustration... here's to courage and love and a little extra energy for us
all!

Rayce... that is a good gift... and one I can definitely use, both for
myself and for my daughter... *hugs* thank you...
I see we are on a whiskey kick now... I am hoping that the memory of my
night taking Southern Comfort shots won't kick in now... *winces*
raises a glass of Tullamore Dew... to Rayce... may you continue to be
blessed with the most beautiful models, and may your daughter grow to be as
strong and beautiful a woman as her mother...
I have a song going through my head now... a Willie Nelson one... "we raise
up our glasses against evil forces, singing 'whiskey for my men, beer for
my horses'..."
