Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wearing jeans, hating oysters, looking balefully at the email inbox.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

All of you who hate oysters have clearly never had a good fried oyster po-boy. I have to believe this, because otherwise the world makes no sense.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

You are sweet! I think I may have to make an exception to the no oysters in non-r having months and have some when I'm out in SF in late May/early June. Care to join me?

Woo-hoo!! There's an AWESOME oyster place just down the street from me.

All of you who hate oysters have clearly never had a good fried oyster po-boy.

I've never had one. Though I tend not to like fried oysters. Gimme 'em raw.

Punishingly Intricate

Are you going to have any non-oyster eating free time?

No, only time for oyster eaters!!!

Not really!! I think I'll have free time. I haven't made too many plans yet except I'm probably going for an overnight in Carmel one night and hopefully going out to Sacramento for a day or so. I'm there from late night 5/29 to morning of 6/7.

Oyster shooters.

I'm wearing khakis

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'm not fond of oysters, although I haven't had a fried oyster po' boy, and I think that, because they're fried, I'd like it.

Hell, I'd eat a ROCK if it were battered and deep-fried.

Natter has suddenly managed to merge 3 common themes:

(1) What I'm Wearing; (2) The Weather Outside My Window; and (3) My Strong Feelings On A Specific Foodstuff.

Impressive.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I am wearing pjs (with bunnies on them!)
And *cough* a concert t-shirt.

Which I can only hassle you about because my shirt just might possibly say MIKEY FUCKIN WAY on it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I do like clams when they are deep fried, and not otherwise, so maybe I'd like oysters that way too.

(1) What I'm Wearing; (2) The Weather Outside My Window; and (3) My Strong Feelings On A Specific Foodstuff.

and, even though I wasn't at the F2F, my brain immediately made that into:

my candy(2) bra(1) doesn't wear so well in the rain(3).
