The person below me

[Eric]

Nope - smokes up the apartment.



tpbm can't image not having a yard

[Mojojita]

Correct! (Neither can the dog). Right now the yard looks like a camping store vomited.

TPBM is solving problems for others trying to get their shit together.

[shroom]

I am usually the problem solver in my group of friends, but trying to solve my own right now.
TPBM has an exotic pet

[jayswain]

false.

TPBM has a ticket to sell me.

[shroom]

nope
TPBM is staying home this year like me

[Eric]

Nope - I did my "missed years" period a while ago. Not quite ready for another break yet.


tpbm has willingly skipped Burning Man, not due to work or obligations

[Maizie]

True - last year was a skipped year for me! Super excited to be going again this year, though. Third time's the charm!

TPBM currently has their Burning Man gear mostly organized.

[theCryptofishist]

No. Gotta figure out what I'm keeping (the cot, for sure) what I'm getting rid of and what I might try to sell.
Of course, I can always use the "I'm not burning again, I don't need gear" clause.
tpbm was given a really nice piece of gear thsi year.

[shroom]

nope but I'll take some nice gear, send it my way
TPBM eats Chinese food with chopsticks

[Jovankat]

Yup and japanese food too.

TPBM enjoys grocery shopping in foreign counties more than most tourist attractions

[AntiM]

Yes! I love browsing the shelves, and trying to read the labels. I am amazed how much Spanish I can read. And then I get to try yummy new goodies. Sorianno is so great! And Costco in foreign countries is trippy.

TPBM knows what Pie n Beer days is, and will be indulging in both.

[Elorrum]

yep, (only because you explained it elsewhere...) ours is in the fall. I once visited a friend during their Harty Jarts festival.
tpbm loves a small town parade.

[Eric]

last time I was at (and in) a small town parade was in Dubois, WY (doo-boys, not doo-bwah. Seriously) in 1980 for the 4th of July. It was a blast.


tpbm has camped in the shadow of the Grand Tetons

[theCryptofishist]

I wish. Last time I spent time with my sister before she was killed, we went to Yellowstone for a day. Only time I've been in Wyoming.
tpbm snorts every time they are reminded that rv gennies are called "Onan".

[shroom]

nope, first time i heard of it
TPBM is making a big breakfast

[AntiM]

Not really, two cups of coffee, black, two slices of whole grain toast with butter and ginger marmalade. If I have a second breakfast, it will be a fruit cup or yogurt.

TPBM eats six tiny meals each day.

[Jovankat]

Nope I eat one or two normal sized meals, usually at completely the wrong time and one or two terribly unhealthy snacks.

TPBM prefers to eat non-breakfasty food for breakfast.

[theCryptofishist]

No, it's muesli for me...
tpbm is charmed by the history of the Full English Breakfast (even if it doesn't remind them of the Spam sketch.)

[shroom]

lol, yes, quite entertaining
tpbm likes herbal tea

[Eric]

I have never looked into the history of breakfast. Hmmm... new book?



tpbm tosses an egg on anything & calls it breakfast.

[theCryptofishist]

schroom--I like mint tea, but not enough to seek it out. I'm a little more excited by ginger.
Eric--that's the way I dress in the morning, not how I eat breakfast.
tpbm has big plans for November.

[Thecatman]

As a matter of fact, I do. At least for me. The first week of November I'm planning on flying into (MCI) Kansas City, renting a car and driving to Moberly, MO to see an old friend. Tentative plans


TPBM went fishing this morning

[theCryptofishist]

Only in the sense that, as a fish, I fish (i.e. be a fish) every morning.
tpbm thought "... take over the world."

[ranger magnum]

My dog could take over the world if only he had opposable thumbs.

Tpbm will tell us about their fist pet

[theCryptofishist]

That's a little personal, don't you think?
tpbm doesn't even have a fist pet.

[Savannah]

*Cackling*

I've had many pets, but the only one that had my fist in it was the raccoon puppet. And the hamster puppet.

I do not currently have a pet, perhaps because my apartment is full of puppets. I'm trapped under a pile of them now. But don't try to remove them, these are valuable!

The person below me will tell us about their FIRST pet.

[Eric]

My first pet was a cat named "Sam". That is also about all I can tell you, because I was 4 and he disappeared when they cut down the woods behind our house in basically a weekend.



tpbm can't imagine a home without furry companions

[shroom]

very true. I've had pets inside, outside or both my entire life.
TPBM has an aquarium

[theCryptofishist]

Hey, I live here.
When tpbm composes an eplaya post, they wait until the end of the post before going back to correct misspellings, typos, and grammar, rather than back-spacing and retyping from the mistake.

[southern crone]

No. I will stop mid-type and go to my beloved dictionary my grandmother gave me when I graduated high school in 1977.


TPBM stops and thinks, " shit she's old."
