I love rum. So good.

As soon as I'm done with this book, I will crack open my very expensive bottle of champagne and the pretty red flutes I've never used and Polgara and Kristen will come over and help me drink it all.

I'll bring the chopped liver!

Which, FYI, is not hummus.

I am the chopped liver.

I have beer in the house, but not because I drink it. Some of my friends decided to buy me several different kinds of beer for my birthday. Unfortunately, I don't seem to like beer at all, though I tried each and every one of them. Even though everyone else who tried them said they had vastly different tastes, they each to me had that essential "beeriness" that drowned out any other flavors for me.

As for the stuff I do drink, I have whiskey, vodka, amaretto, Bailey's, Kahluah (For mixing, mostly. I'll take straight shots of vodka occaisionally. Good vodka goes down like water for me. Cheap vodka makes me nauseated. I've also had Bailey's on the rocks from time to time.) and assorted Mike's Hard flavors left over from the party as well.

I am the chopped liver.

With boys to spare. And a chapter all your own. Which is the best I can do, it's hard to top a moon.

What is WRONG with you people and your not drinking beer?

Well, I find that drinking beer gets in the way of my consuming massive amounts of Quaaludes and Ding-Dongs.

Also, beer makes you pee a lot.

Dang. Call in sick for one day,and miss all the fun.

So there is a party, with boys( no men?), beer, rum and vodka.

No free food, and work is required....

Hmmmm sounds like a normal weekend at my house.

Is there a cover charge or any entertainment? Like jello mud wrestling? Or Jenga?

I have lots of vodka. All different kinds. I think it's multiplying or something.

gotta take the bad with the good. And sometimes, you meet interesting people in the bathroom line.

I caught this on Whedonesque, some "Support Spike" fan spoke to James Marsters at a convention;

"I also talked to him about a Spike Movie. I reiterated to him that Joss Whedon had approached Tim Minear to write and direct. [Note: James learned about Tim Minear earlier that day during the Q&A]. James said he thought Tim would do a good job and mentioned Tim being ruthless in his writing, which James liked. I mentioned reading that Joss was putting together a writing team and that I thought Jane Espenson would be a good compliment to Tim - she would be the light to his dark. James agreed and added that "Doug Petrie" and "Steven DeKnight" would also be good for the job."

So he wants every ME writer ever to write one scene of the movie. Okay then.
