Let The Countdown Begin!

[Mouse]

Why are we scrutinizing bears? That notion is just ridiculous.

[Rapier Half-Wit]

Now see, this is what Rani is talking about. I think that marital domesticity is already begining to take Mouse's edge off. You don't think that maybe she's already neutered him, do you?

[Mouse]

Mouse brand witticisms: They may not all be sharp, but they are pointy. Neutered you say? To this I say,
"In the Garden of Eden laid Adam,
Complacently strokin' his madam.
Great was his mirth,
For on all of the Earth.
There were only two balls and he had 'em"

I've got brass buttons and don't you go forgetting it. *walks away playing Stormy Weather*

[Rapier Half-Wit]

Maybe you do still have some of that piss & vinegar left in you. Time will tell, time will tell.

It's one thing to give your heart to the one person that you will love till the sun grows cold and the stars grow old, that one that you literally give the rest of your life to. It's quite another to change who and what you are to suit someone else.

If they truly love you, they love you just as you are.

[Mouse]

In all truth, she enhances me. Hasn't tried to change me any. She is as odd as me and if anything she could teach me a little humility and discipline *insert jokes here* Only time in my life I haven't had to change for a woman. I promise, I will still be full of piss and vinegar for years to come...that phrase explains my charm it seems.

[Mouse]

OH! I didn't see Rani's "phoning it in" comment..I was wondering where this direction in the conversation came from. I am not phoning it in. Sometimes I'm on fire, sometimes I smolder, most times though, I spark, but don't catch. I pun therefore I am. Truth be told, I laugh at my own jokes more than others and I chuckle to myself because a thought comes into my head, but I don't share it with anyone because I usually get groans and eye rolls, or silence. Usually silence..and I enjoy that. I will try to bring my A game in the future, but my phoning it in is actual the measure of my humour. It's all of you who usually put me on the floor laughing.

[LadyElizabeth]

Mouse, that's amazing!  I have to say you must be one of those "lucky" ones everyone always talks about... haha!  The way you speak about her and the way you are together, it's obvious you were meant for each other!!

[Mouse]

Where's that pin drop when you need it..or even that ripping duct tape sound?

[Breandan]

duct tape and squirrels? *glances at Fraser*

....I know nothing....

*walks away whistling innocently*

[Rani Zemirah]

Ahhhh... there's that Rodent.    Never fear, Mouse, my dear... in this place when you get groans and eye rolls, it tends to be more appreciation of the raw nerve it takes to post the really bad puns...  lol  I was just pokin' ya' to see if I could get a response, because you've been kinda quiet lately.   

Don't, y'know, start thinking it means I missed you, or anything...    Geez...

[Breandan]

if its any consolation, Mouse, you've been busy dealing with the chaos of a new relationship. I have been dealing with the chaos of a new life, said life apparently having a portal inside her body that connects via quantum tunnel to a parallel universe comprised of sulfuric gas. You're planning a wedding, I'm dealing with a 14 pound bundle of gassy joy who's poots could peel paint and knock buzzards off of corpse wagons. You lucky bastard   

[Mouse]

Oh, I got my quantum bundle of joy already on her way to being grown up and in control of her bodily functions...I slapped a Heisenberg Overrider on her for her 1st birthday..made a world of difference. As for Rani..you missed me. Admit it. Just like a limb...a gangreous limb. Sure, it was infected and necrotic, but you miss the limb nonetheless.

[Rapier Half-Wit]

Ah, our very own mental kick in the crotch is back. We've missed you, you little bundle of flacid joy. 

[Laird Fraser of Lovatt]

*Sigh*  just like Herpies... you can't get rid of him... 

[Mouse]

There's an app for that.
