parties and new friends and OMG SO MUCH FOOD

[juldea]

So last night was diego001's birthday dinner at Fire & Ice restaurant in Harvard Square. Fire & Ice is the red-headed stepchild of proper Mongolian barbeques (like BD's) but it is the closest thing I have found in Boston. Annnyway.

I showed up only knowing diego001 and karlean7, and left knowing so many more people! And we all had Livejournals! Woot.

I met idonotlikepeas, emopixie, toodumbforthis, sexybassist1013, and placeboweek. I talked to them to varying degrees, some not very much, but what I saw proved they were all keen. Only the staff meeting in 10 minutes keeps them from being on my friends' list yet. ;)

I also did my job for God and America and stuffed four plates of 'experimental stir-fry' into my stomach, more than anyone else (although the heft of idonotlikepeas's plates might have equaled us out.) First there was a tofu sesame ginger dish, then the wonderful "little bit of pasta, little bit of chicken, and three cups of sliced mushrooms" alfredo, followed by steak fajitas, and finished off with teriyaki pork, which I'm very sorry I left for the end because it turned out to be the best dish of them all. Yes, even beating the mushroom alfredo.

Gotta get to my meeting now.

That avatar is a scary likeness.

[idonotlikepeas]

Why, thank you.

[idonotlikepeas]

Incidentally, where did you get that one? I've seen a number of folks that seem to have similar art. Is it an automated thing or simply a particularly prolific artist?

[juldea.livejournal.com]

It's an automated one, from one of those sites where you pick the hair/glasses/etc. It was in Spanish... that's about all I remember. I could dredge up the link if you like...

[idonotlikepeas]

Nah, thanks. I'll stick with my own shitty pixel art. ;)

...my cat's name is Pixel. Well, one of them. One of the cats, not one of her names.

Anyway.

If you'd like to make "shitty Pixel art," you're welcome to come clean the litterbox for me.

That's right, kids! Capitalization counts!

I helped my Uncle jack off his horse.

I helped my uncle Jack jack off his horse.

You're such a help to the family. What a trooper.

[idonotlikepeas]

Well, jacking off a horse really is a two-person job.

[juldea.livejournal.com]

Dude, my family owns horses and I don't know this shit.

[idonotlikepeas]

You should ask your family how often they jack off their horses. Make sure to record it when you do.
