the wheels on the bus

Missing-in-Action Galpal cancelled BigCity trip plans Friday afternoon, leaving yours truly in quite the lurch. Ended up on five-hour bus ride sitting next to College Boy Who Sighs at Least Provocation whose breath smelled as though had not only eaten something quite foul, but had been separated from his toothbrush for ages. Would have felt sorry for Sighing Boy, but well, stench was simply too overwhelming.
Needless to say, was ever-so-grateful to escape bus and into warm welcoming of v. kind and accommodating hostess. Had such a nice time doing girly manicure things, ordering bad-for-figure foods and primping for night out on the town.
Joined even-more-super-adorable-in-real-life Bob, Doug and friend (Jeff, is it?) for what turned out to be evening of Mexican food, margaritas, and yours truly obnoxiously crooning to super sad latin ballads, wishing had not worn impossible-to-retain-proper-blood-flow knee high boots. A fine time, indeed.
Highlight of weekend away, though, was earning the Most Low Maintenance Houseguest award from Miss Goes Down. Am truly honored. Am expecting trophy to arrive any day.

Glad you had a good time; hope the bus ride back was not as bad.

Have you been to Mama Mexico's? I don't know where it is (Amsterdam & 97th??? I don't know the city) but it's a great place to go for your birthday!

Um. Are you sure associating with nothing but bloggers is going to get you laid?

Posted by: Joe Suny at March 3, 2003 10:17 AM

Well, let's see... if my primary objective in life was to get laid, I'd CERTAINLY not have to take a bus to New York to do it.
And, if you're insinuating that the folks mentioned here are anything but spectacular people (sure, even Doug -- hee!), you've got another thing coming.
And furthermore, I probably don't need to mention that my world does exist outside the blogosphere. But, whatever melts your butter, Joe.

Posted by: Fish at March 3, 2003 10:26 AM

Oh Joe... I'm truly starting to despise you.

Posted by: Ari at March 3, 2003 11:36 AM

So, then why didn't you go out in Boston and try to meet a new guy? More interested in teasing your poor friends who can't get any ass just to make yourself feel better? Forgive me if I don't see strength but just the desire to boost your ego.

If they're so "spectacular", then how come you didn't hook up with any of them? Could it be that you secretly agree with me that the blogospherean (I can make up fancy-sounding neologisms too) are not fab pieces of ass? Point to me, then.

Whatever "melts my butter"? Huh? What trailer did you crawl out of?

Posted by: Joe Suny at March 3, 2003 03:24 PM

Why do you despise me, Ari? I'm just out to bust the overly inflated egos and bizarre fantasy worlds of others.

What's wrong with a dose of reality every now and then?

I see you have a blog too. I should see what silliness you've engaged in as of late.

Posted by: Joe Suny at March 3, 2003 03:27 PM

Wow, Joe, that's rather unpleasant. First of all, you're assuming that this is all some kind of ego trip. I don't think that's true. Second, you seem out to demean Fish which I doubt comes from wholesome origins.

Think of it this way: we're all just self-deluded fools who like our little fantasy world wherein we pay attention to what Fish writes. That's that. So you can leave now, if everything here is so distasteful to you.
Please.

Joe,
First of all, a VAST majority of my New York City friends are FEMALE. Yes, that's right. And I like boys. So, as for getting ass from them, that might prove problematic.
Secondly, I didn't go out to try to meet anyone at all. I went to have fun. I went to be distracted by good friends and over-priced alcohol. I don't tease anyone. And I don't have to go looking for male attention. God knows a good many of you are pathetic enough to heap it on wherever you can. Your attendance here is case-in-point.
And no, I don't agree with you. I've been pleasantly surprised to find that many of my blog acquaintances are indeed, fine pieces of ass, as you say.
And last, but not least, I did not crawl out of anything, much less a trailer. I am Southern, yes. But using colloquialisms neither makes me ignorant nor of low economic standing. I am well educated and, though you seem to think otherwise, quite intelligent. I'm well read (in three languages, thank you), fairly witty, and last but not least... a very nice piece of ass.
Please do not comment here anymore.

Bye Bye Joe

with movabletype you can ban IP addresses from posting on your blog. i'm sure one of the guys who made this site for you can help you out. ummm, maybe i shouldn't have told you that knowing where i stand around here.

Fish,

So, you have a problem meeting guys and would prefer to be in the company of women. That explains why you stayed in a relationship (if you can call it that) with J.

If you didn't go to meet anyone, then why say:

"Have already made joy-inspiring plans with Miss Goes Down and Feisty Feminine Bob for evening of drinking, dancing and flirting with wild abandon. Shall do said shameless flirting with any and every attractive man within flirting (my emphasis) radius."

Apparently, the flirting didn't work too well and now, you're taking back what you wrote?

Okay, so they are fine pieces of ass. I was just asking a question essentially.

Colloquialisms are cute and folksy, but they serve no purpose save to make you farm fresh. Stronger arguments and less emotional ranting would better demonstrate this supposed intellect.

Thanks for the send-off, Ari.

Posted by: Joe Suny at March 3, 2003 06:28 PM

You are quite welcome Joe. Now be a good little {and I mean little} boy and head back under your teeny tiny little rock of social ineptitude and ignorance.

Ta Ta

Posted by: Ari at March 3, 2003 08:37 PM

Ha! Oh dear. I don't know, now that little Joe has been banned, whether to address his comments at all.
I'll take farm fresh. Everyone likes the Farmer's Daugher.
Fuck you, Joe.

Posted by: Fish at March 3, 2003 09:34 PM

fishy, banning his ip will do very little good as he can always get online with a new IP. Best to delete the comments altogether (imo).

It does amaze me that people go so far out of their way to try and put people down, however, in the immortal words of some French bird, "Insults often say more about the people who make them than about those they claim to describe."

oh god the whole thing has just gotten boring.

Posted by: chevy at March 4, 2003 09:27 AM

Can I just say that I was a little disappointed that Fish was such a tease and didn't try to get with this piece of ass... hehe!

Sheesh! =)

Wouldn't be surprised if Joe filled out an application...
