****Official Talk Like California Peggy Day****


My Dear Everybody,

Yesterday was the official "Talk Like A Pirate Day." Which was fun, but why let the fun end there? So I am declaring the day after "Talk Like a Pirate Day" as "Talk Like California Peggy Day."

The rules are simple: You must greet everyone with whom you interact by their proper name, and you must, MUST I SAY, call them "My Dear." If you do not know their proper name, you may substitute a reasonable facsimile, i.e., "My Dear Traffic Cop" or "My Dear Asshole Who Just Cut Me Off In Traffic!"

Have fun, kids!

:hi:

I am so glad you like your Official Day! :7

You are the honored recipient of my attention because you are so much fun to play with in the Lounge! I wouldn't decree an Official Day for just anyone, you know.

Why, thank you for this honor, sweetie.

My DU friends certainly brighten my life.

I'm going to go work on a poem now. If I get writer's block, I'll take some photos of beautiful waves.

25. I'm doing okay, my dear DA
I've been busy too. You've been directing that show, yes? I've just been keeping up with my regular routine: work, chanting, dancing on Tuesday nights, hanging out with the Hares on Sundays in London. I had a social dance last Saturday, too. And I am looking at flights to Charlotte, NC for spending a couple of weeks with AirmensMom in TN at the end of October. How are you, sweet heart?

:loveya:

Edited on Sat Sep-20-08 12:49 PM by Dangerously Amused
These guys? I can see why, they are adorable!



(Lol, that's the first thing I envisioned when I read that and I'm like, what?!)

Anwyway, sounds like you are keeping busy and off the streets. And all this dancing, you are going to sweep AirmensMom off her feet in Oct, aren't you? Sweet. She's a lucky girl. :)


And yes, the show is going really well. My cast is amazing; very talented, very funny people. I really got lucky with them. One of the people in the audience last night came up to me after the show to tell me that she was laughing so hard she was crying. :7

32. Sure I'm going to dance with her
It was her suggestion that made me take lessons in the first place. And everything she told me about how much fun it was is true.

She has a ballroom in the basement of her house, and we are going to make use of it. :7

I'm so glad your show is going well. :hug:

You are very kind, however I can take but a modicum of credit; our Dear CaliforniaPeggy gets the lion's share as she is the inspiration!

So good to see you!

The Pegster
is surely worthy
of such an honor.

I would love
to dedicate
a day
maybe a week
maybe a month
maybe a year
maybe a decade
maybe a century
maybe a millennium
talking like her.

I think you are onto something there! If more people talked like CaliforniaPeggy every day, the world would be a much nicer place. Mostly because I think it would be difficult to get or stay mad at somebody who calls you "My Dear" all the time.

...California Peggy would address me as "My Dear InTheHeadlights".
