Previous Entry  Add to memories!  Tell a Friend!  Next Entry


So, here's the deal. Friend of mine moved back in to town recently and she's been crashing on my couch. She's moving into her own place this weekend, and I've convinced her to have an apartment-warming thing. But! She owns a sleeping bag and that's about it. So what I'm thinking is -- if you want -- come over and bring some piece of furniture you don't need any more. A spare chair, floor pillow thing, old TV, futon, hell I don't even think she has spoons and forks. Her new place isn't huge, and she's pretty low-key so she would probably say she doesn't need a lot but I figure between us all, we could probably get her started.

Also, I told her I'd introduce her to my friends, since I've failed at doing that, so more incentive to show up.

Plus, I'll bring food and beer.

That's a really good idea, Alex. I'm sure I can find something.

How you doing, anyway?

Pretty alright, really. Things have been fairly settled, actually.

I'm convincing myself that's a good thing.

I'm a little too used to it meaning 'the calm before the storm'.

Yeah but now we know when the storm is.

I don't have any spare furniture but I do know this guy could probably hook me up with a load of stuff, really cheap. I'll see what I can do.

Why do you think I volunteered for food and beer duty? You can go halfsies with me on that, if you want.

Smart thinking, dude.

Speaking of beer, though. You free around now?

You might want to specify gently used furniture. But I probably have something I can bring over.

Eh, I trust you guys. Didn't figure anyone would bring over total crap.

You have insanely good timing. My sister's about to move in, so I'm moving a bunch of stuff out.

Yeah her place is tiny and her mom's coming to visit so I said she could stay here for a while at least.

That's cool.

So how's that work -- her mom?

[info]lordofvalhalla

Well. The parents that raised me are biologically our parents but when we were born, at the same time, another woman had her baby. That baby passed away just after she was born.

Only the hospital mixed up my twin for that child, and my folks raised me, and then Tampa made sure we found out about it a couple months back.

So! Her mom that raised her, rather than the one we have in common.

Got it.

Man, even without Tampa, we live in one hella crazy world.

Well most of that happened in Tampa.

But before all the crack, it's true.

You know, we should start dating things like that. BBC. "But before crack".

Hmmm. Kind of hard to fit all that in a magazine ad, I bet.

And they probably wouldn't be all into, something like "Tampa: It's Crack."

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yeah.

Though the drug barons would probably appreciate the publicity.

You gotta wonder what *they* think of the Tampa crack.

That it's all good for business, I imagine. I mean. I'm not into the whole banned substances gig but we all have our things, right? Coffee, exercise, booze, sex, chocolate...whatever.

And I know I've been mine way harder since this all began.
