It's Harry Potter Day

Dr. Stevil: It's Harry Potter day.
Me: I know. I never pre-ordered it.
Dr. Stevil: and that surprises me
Me: I was doing other things... I never got around to it. I haven't been reading much the last few weeks.
Dr. Stevil: *slow bug blink to indicate disbelief and surprise*
KK: Like what?
Me: Well, the sims. And the chatting. [under breath] with boys.
KK: Ahhh... yes... boys.
Evildeb: What about the liquor?
Me: Oh, yeah, I forgot. Well, you can do either one of those while enjoying the liquor.
KK: Sometimes you can enjoy them more.
Evildeb: Liquor only adds to the enjoyment.
Dr. Stevil: Ok, boys and liquor are fine. But the sims and liquor, that's dangerous.
KK and Me: *slow bug blinks to indicate disbelief and surprise*
Me: And ... there is no danger of mixing boys and liquor? What?
Dr. Stevil: Well, you could really mess up your game.
Me: But... but... if you mess up with boys and liquor, that's your life! Besides, in the sims you can always quit without saving. You can't do that with a boy.
Dr. Stevil: No, I guess not... but you've invested so many hours in the game.
KK and Me: *look at each and wonder if Steve is serious.*
Me: Well, I usually save intermittently. Besides, if I truly fuck up a sim, I can just kill him and start over. You can't do that with a boy.
Dr. Stevil: I suppose you are right.
Me: I am so going to blog this conversation.
KK: it says so right there on your shirt.

Dr. Stevil doesn't know what he's talking about - liquor and the sims go together MUCH better than liquor and boys. I really wish the sims had been around when I was in my early 20's!

I am so envious of the shirt! I've always wanted one but never got around to ordering one.

i would have to agree w/ you and marie... liquor and the sims is a much better combo than liquor and boys. yes.

I think your conversation was far, far better than any intentional 50-word fiction.

And for what it's worth, girls can so quit without saving on a boy. It's happened to me.

"Game over man! Game over."

You can chat drunk? Damn, I have got to try that out. Oh wait ... double shot damn.

oh no, lloyd, you cannot. quitting without saving, as you well know, returns you to a previous state, clean and fresh as a daisy, just as you were before. once you involve boys, you've got cooties. and even if you "quit without saving" you are forever changed. by the cooties.

you can't become a virgin again, lloyd.
