*waves at everyone Hello, there Sinister! This is the third time -- third time! -- that I've tried to post this. I only hope it goes through this time. I suppose I'm running on a burst if euphoria at seeing such Hot List Action. Oh yeah. Is it unreasonable to wonderful posts like Robin Stout's or even to hope to see posts from other folk, like maybe Markelby C. or even -- gasp! -- Laura Llew? Some people who posted got married. Many, many congrats to them and to them as can. I can't marry, being A Gentleman Who's Not Good at Sport, but I have SHACKED UP. As in "Living In Sin", which is pretty ironic, considering the lives we lead*. But such Shacking Up did lead to an exciting move to the Big City of New York and my Return to School.** I should probably stop using Capital Letters to Express Imoprtance, but it's the sort of thing they do in the sort old plays and books I read a lot these days***. Come to think of it, many you newer people will be just the same age as the students my college had foisted me on as a TA. Cripes, some of you might even BE my students. Wouldn' that be odd? You young one better be nice to your TA just in case he's me. Some people who posted didn't get married. Yay for them. They should all go out and be as promiscuous as possible. But this being Sinister, they may be inclined to stay at home in their bed room. But what with the picnics going around, you can probably go out and fine someone with red underpants to do that with. But you can probably find something more interesting to do than sulking if you're in a bedroom with someone in their underpants. Or so I hear. Speaking of picnics, I have to miss the one at the Cloisters. This makes me very sad as a) I've wanted to go there for ages and b) I'll miss the other Sinisterines. Maybe on your way there or back (more likely back) you can stop in Colombus Circle and visit me! Speaking of visits, I hear Eric Cheeseybun is going to the meet-up. Maybe, if you ask very nicely, he will bring Sebastian,The Hound of (Indie) Rawk with him. They both need a good airing from time to time, and Sebastian is very cute. *waves Bye!
