Back by request...it's THE GROTTO - Hump Day *snort* Edition
Edited on Wed Oct-15-03 10:05 PM by VelmaD
Well, I'm back from the hinterlands of West Texas and I see that y'all didn't get up to no good while I was gone.


And since Little Bit asked so nicely this morning the Grotto is open for business again. We've rounded up the cabana boys and girls, got the generator going, restocked the bar, and we are ready to rock.


It's Hump Day - so get to it. ;-)

2. Welcome...
hop in the hot spring. Then just snap your fingers and one of our luscious cabana boys or girls (take your pick) will be along with your drink.

3. Shameless kick
Where the hell is everybody tonight. Sheesh. I leave for a few days and y'all desert the Grotto. Gonna have to beat short bus for not being a better host while I was gone. Now that kind of floor show should encourage people to head on in. :evilgrin:

Oh well, if don't ask don't tell is good enough for the military it's good enough for the Grotto.

*snap snap* Manuel, bring the lovely lady her drink and put a wiggle in it. And don't forget the little unbrella. :-)

that the others look like they're already having a good time all by themselves and the poor guy with his clothes still on might need some highly specialized personal attention.

teen-ager-y concept. She bats her eyelashes and tries to look innocent and no one is buying it. Sound familiar? ;-)

I remember what teenage boys are like. *fond nostalgic sigh*

So, how's school going? And how is the girl situation?

Both are finally going great...for one time in my life i'm actually happy about both :)

To be a bit more detailed, I have all As in school (That's NEVER happened before...never. ever.) and I have a new crush on this girl, I saw her yesterday after school, and she said "hi" to me! That made my day...:D

50. Hey! No low self-esteem in the Grotto.
You're a wonderful, lovely, smart, funny girl who cares enough about the world to be politically active.

And I gotta say, the kind of person whose day would be "ruined" by you saying "hi"...well, they deserve to have a crappy day. :evilgrin: And like I said, you might make some worthy young man, like our own Little Bit, very happy.

I spend all day yesterday wracking my brain to remember what it was you wanted me to PM you about. Oh well.

Me and the wife are going out of town until Saturday, Vel. You'll have to hold down the fort without me.

Did y'all have fun last night?

64. Now I wracking my brain...
trying to remember too. *pokes brain with q-tip*

We had a pretty good time last night. No short bus, but lots of new faces. I went over 2000 posts and never even noticed. :-) There was a little bit of teenagery angst and we had to implement a new rule - NO LOW SELF-ESTEEM IN THE GROTTO.

Have fun on your weekend trip. I'm traveling a bit this weekend too. My parents are coming down to Temple for a meeting and I'm driving up to see them. My mom's bringing me her old vacuum cleaner - mine dies about a month ago. *sigh* I have lots of hair. I shed worse than a cat. It's hell on vacuums. *embarassed sheepish look*

I just got fabulous news from my momma this morning. Looks like my little brother and his wife adn son are gonna come to Texas this year for xmas instead of us going to visit them in Florida. I'm pumped. That means we can do the big traditional xmas thing with all the family and friends in one place at the same time. I'm so happy about it I think I'm gonna bust. :-)

Lil Bit and LPFF will be good for each other, I think. Aren't they cute together. :D Makes me feel old, that's for sure. Also makes me wish we'd had the Internet when I was a teenager. My sexual awakening would have been much smoother, I'm sure.

67. I don't know...
that the internet would have helped. All that easily available porn just might have given us even more unrealistic expectations.

They are awfully cute together though. Trying to see who can out-angst the other. *snort* We have SO gotta tease them about their little luv connection. ;-)

Sigh...I gotta run for a bit. I've been tasked with picking up something for my boss for boss's day - woohoo. Don't have too much fun without me.
