Let's see this place live!

I'm an incredibly wordy person, so of course luck would have it that I would end up here. There are so many people who make this place unique and fun, and I'm sure that with my senility I'm going to forget to mention important people. Yell at me, and I'll give you a really sincere apology or something.

Deep "conversations"? Is that what we tell Patrick and Cheryl it was?

[gary_lightbody]

I am a tall man and like my conversation proportionate.

[salmo8]

I had something horribly gay and disturbing for a comment back to that, but I think I've done enough damage, so just thanks. =P

[cherylcole]

This is where I pointedly ignore the above comments and just say thank you, thank you, thank you. You are endlessly lovely.

[gary_lightbody]

I like deep conversations with you too. Thank you for letting me wear the boa in this relationship.

[salmo8]

Don't worry. We mostly just talk about how we're both lucky bastards with people way our of our leagues. =P

You know it's funny that you post this just as I'm writing a ridiculous emotion-laden entry about my anniversary. Yet it's nearly 11am here in Japan and I've yet to actually go to sleep and my entry won't see the light of day for a few hours so I'm easily distracted when I see my name... I'm just really quite happy it's associated with such positivity.

I've respected and admired your ability to handle the written word over the years and this was very, very flattering. Thank you, Gary. When the boys take the stage with you later this summer, I realise there will be much alcohol flowing but there will be tea as well. I shall make sure of it. I know it's useless to try to get you to actually attempt driving but that's alright. More Ferrari for me.

Well, I'm glad that if you had to take a break for a bit of levity, it was for this! And it just reflects my points about you quite well, so I feel as though I have made my case.

Oh God, I'm just another wordy bastard who's bumbling around while professionals like you find time while getting paid to write elsewhere! Really, thank you for all the kind words, past and I'm assuming future. I can't get pissed before going onstage anyway, so there will be time for a cuppa or twelve. You don't want to know what I would do with a Ferrari, but you wouldn't be happy with me.

What an awesome entry, and thank you so much for posting it! I've been trying to write one, but it was hard to follow Taylor's fantastic offering, so I'm really glad someone else stepped up to be second. The only problem is that now there are two awesome posts to live up to!

[gary_lightbody]

Aw, thank you. I think there's been a lot of negativity around lately and would hate to see something like this die off so quickly, so I'm glad that someone else wants to do it. Once you get started, the only real problem is trying to wrap things up!

I am unbelievably flattered! I am working on one of these myself and you're definitely on the wishlist. I can't say I'm any better at AIM than customs or vice versa, but neilmagicharris is my screen name, though instant message conversations are not my forte.

[gary_lightbody]

What a happy coincidence! I will add you to my list, and I'm at patrollergary. If I catch you on away, I'll just safely conclude you're doing some super villain something-or-other.

[harris]

You would not necessarily be wrong!
