I believe in renaming shelter animals because new name = new life but it sounds like Posey has had a pretty OK life so far.
Oh, god, please name your dog Parker Posey von Pilsner.

I always think of Parker Posey when I hear "Posey".
Me too.
So, fun story about my current crush, who shall be called Chorus 3, since that was her role in the play I got her cast in. We had made plans with a fellow castmate, let's call her Kitty, to go see our director tomorrow night at a film festival gala opening. She was also supposed to come see Antigone tonight, but she got sick.
Anyway, after the show, I was talking with Kitty about the party and told her that Chorus 3 was sick and maybe she wouldn't be able to come. She said she was bringing a crew, including a guy who she thought would find Chorus 3 attractive and whom Chorus 3 would find attractive. "They're totally gonna do it!" she said excitedly.
I didn't say anything.
Later on, however, she decided to go off with the bartender, and before she left, I pulled her aside and said, "In that vein, I want to redo a conversation from earlier."
"Okay," she said, confused.
"Say that thing about the guy who'll find Chorus 3 attractive and she'll find him attractive."
I wanted her to say the line again so I could respond to it. "Yeah," she said, cluelessly, "[Dude's name]."
"What I should have said was, 'I'm already coming; you don't need to bring someone else.'"
Realization dawned. "You like Chorus 3?"
"Yeah."
"Really?"
"Really."
"FUCK!" she said, half "Oh, what have I done" and half "You have ruined my perfect plan." Possibly more of the latter, honestly. "He really needs to get laid," she whispered.
"So do I!" I whispered back, because my true feelings and motives would take too many words and besides, it got the point across.
"Okay," she said. "You've got dibs."
"I've got dibs," I repeated.
I simultaneously feel like an adult and like I'm in junior high.

You truly are a rockstar PC. I'm applauding your courage, clarity and chutzpah!
Much more adult, I'd say. Junior high would have involved a major sulk. Instead, you stood your ground and staked your claim in circumstances, under which, lesser men would have paled.
I hope that it comes to pass that in some future time, you are able to share that story with C3 as she gazes on you fondly.
Well done, Sir. Well done!

Nicely done! I never have the guts to admit to liking anyone to anyone (and there have been some pretty awesome couldn't have been scripted any better moments in my life where I STILL said nothing) so I also totally admire your courage!!
Also, a boy involved in theater who actually likes girls? We, uh, could have used you around our theater department.

Haha. I think the theater department at my university was less straight than most... I went to university in a fairly conservative area, and the school I was at was the most liberal and had the best theater department (in a small area), I think we attracted every gay guy in a hundred mile radius. So I basically knew like six straight guys all through college, as I didn't really hang out much with the non-theater crowd. Those six straights were, of course, always taken by girls who were clearly not me.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Oddly, our SMIT (straight men in theatre) contingent is rather huge. Not to the point of "you're not running people off with shotguns, right?" but definitely majority to a notable degree.

Sox! What great pictures of I and M! I am jealous and hoping that next year we can rent at the same time you do so K can claim her right to world domination, also.

I love the "Von Pilsner" last name, but it does make me think the first name should be "Baron".

I signed up for the paid version of live strong this morning. Maybe actually spending money will motivate me to try and lose the weight. My knees aren't getting any better, and the scale continually going up isn't helping them at all. I was 40 calories over with what I ate yesterday, which I don't think is that bad.
