What a Spread!

I’m missing the Full Moon hash tonight to have dinner with my new co-workers at the Capital Grille. Boy! Do we have a nice spread! Our appetizers include oysters on the half shell, lobster, shrimp, and fried calamari. On top of that, we have an open bar. I try to play it safe by drinking wine, but the servers keep refilling our glasses so fast that I quickly have to watch myself. Then we have to choose our meal…what a tough decision! Three different types of steak, lamb chops, salmon, or tuna. And for dessert…the choice of cheesecake, mixed berries and cream, or a flourless chocolate espresso cake. Well! I’m not going to pass by the opportunity for espresso cake! Yum! I only take 3 bites, but it’s worth it! But I quickly decide to leave after the Stoli and pineapple start to work their wonders. I can’t have my co-workers see me in this light yet!


Fortunately for me, I quickly catch a train to Courthouse and arrive at Dremo’s around 11pm. There’s still a pretty good sized crowd left from the hash.




I’m up to my usual shenanigans, too. I go through numerous costume changes cause my turtleneck and blazer are too hot to wear in the bar. At first, I take off my turtleneck and wear only my blazer, but then pull out my t-shirt when the blazer becomes too hot to wear. Only 3 costume changes. Not too shabby!

OFE has volunteered to host pancakes and mimosas in the morning, so a group of us head to his house to crash for the evening. Porn to Fail passes out on the couch within 30 seconds of arriving. Well, I guess we know where he’s sleeping! We watch Kill Bill until 3am at which point I haul myself off to sleep, so that I can survive my walk-a-thon in the morning.

The First Ever and Only Catered Hash

I’m so unprepared today! When I packed my hash bag this morning, I didn’t check the weather reports and didn’t look outside at the weather, so I only packed a t-shirt and yoga pants for today’s run (at least I had sense enough to pack pants and not shorts!). Am I not aware that it’s the middle of November? With all this unseasonably warm weather, my weather sense is all turned around.

So, inevitably, I’m freezing my a$$ off standing around outside Union Station in my windbreaker/raincoat without a hat or gloves. I’m jumping up and down to get my blood circulating and stay warm when OFE recommends drinking some liquor to warm me up. Great idea! There’s lots of shops in Union Station, there’s gotta be a liquor store inside. I find the liquor store (conveniently located near the entrance for Amtrak) and pay $5 for a flask of Jack Daniels. Not a great price, but certainly not outrageously expensive (Union Station shops are not known for their bargains).

Since I’m being generous today, I pass around my flask of Jack to other hashers that need a quick shot of warmth, as well. That stuff really does the trick! And it’s so smooth going down. But damn that Rodeo! Apparently, his definition of a swig is larger than mine. Between two tokes on my flask, he drinks half the bottle and only left me a swallow! Dude! It’s not cool to take advantage of someone’s generosity!

The hares promise us a short trail cause it’s so cold outside, and for once they keep their promise! I still attempt to shortcut, though, but fail miserably. I’m following A$$ Ogre (who is usually a master short-cutter) and we see a true trail arrow leading over a bridge. Well! That true trail arrow is for the 2nd part of the trail because the beer van is parked UNDER the bridge. Of course, I don’t realize this until I’m on top of the bridge, so we cut through a construction site and scramble underneath the fence to make our way back to the beer check. So shortcutting doesn’t always pay…

At the end circle, to my surprise (and pleasure), I discover that we are not being served our usual fare. It’s catered food! Apparently, some caterers (whose truck is parked in the same alley) have lots of leftovers and decide to donate them to us hungry hashers. The food is fabulous! We have beef satay, crab cakes, shrimp, steamed dumplings, greek vegetarian pastry, muffins, AND chocolate-covered strawberries!

Just Keith tells me, “Eat Street Meat came in his pants when he saw the meat sticks”.
That is too funny! I think it’s such a funny line that I submit it to the hash scribe as a violation.



We have a naming today. Now sometimes guys get stuck with horrible hash names, but today is an exception. The newest hasher is named “C*cks on Demand” cause he works for a video editing equipment company. And he’s Cum Dumpling’s brother! I didn’t know that! But now that I know, I do see a resemblance…

Now y’all might recall that I met A$ Ogre a while back at a Sh*t hash and was told that he’s king of bra popping. I personally have never experienced this (cause I’ve only been around him in a sports bra), but tonight he gets IHOV. Poor girl! She doesn’t even realize until I ask her to check herself.

I do have to throw one item out to my audience, though. There are a lot of hashers that I call “background”. They’re new, dedicated runners whose circle of friends include other new hashers. Most are unnamed, but a few have been named. These “background” hashers only do one hash a week and don’t go to any of the social events. Why does EWH3 have so many “background” hashers? I can’t believe it’s because these hashers are wallflowers (Can hashers be wallflowers? By definition, we’re active, social people). What can members of the hash do to get these “background” hashers involved? It’s definitely something I puzzle over…

Comment moderation?

WTF??!! Why doesn't blogger tell us when they install new features?

I thought my posts were boring people since I hadn't received any comments for a week's worth of posts. But lo and behold, I'm the one at fault for not checking out the moderate comment feature in my settings. Well, let me tell you, I couldn't turn that feature off fast enough!

And I gotta send a shout out to all my commenters - y'all def have great senses of humor! Some of those comments y'all leave behind totally make me fall out of my chair.

First Day on the Job

Well, like all first days on the job, today is all about filling out paperwork. Since I work for such a small company, all the benefits and paychecks are outsourced to a HR management company. It’s confusing reading through all the paperwork that says LNDT “is an employee of both company X and Y” and then knowing that everything I’m doing today, I’ll have to do again on Wednesday for the company I’m contracted to. Even the laptop! I get a company laptop, but I’m also going to get a laptop from the client. 2 laptops! What am I going to do with 2 laptops?

In any case, the people are great here. They take me out to lunch and invite me to 3 networking events this week. Gosh! I’ve been here one day and already have social activities on the agenda. But I like staying busy, so no complaints from this quarter.

After work, I head over to Pentagon City to get a bite to eat. As I’m sitting at the bar, the gentleman next to me shows me this neat trick. Apparently, it’s possible to balance two inter-laced forks on a toothpick. Totally amazing! If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe it’s possible.

Ah well, back home for me. Again, I’m going to be a good girl and call it an early evening. Boring today, aren’t I?

Violated....Again!

I wake up to the sound of Kane flushing the toilet over and over again. Can’t anyone sleep in around here? I roll over and try to fall asleep. No such luck.

Knee Deep comes downstairs and asks, “Is the toilet broken?”
I stubbornly refuse to get up and throw a blanket over my head. Maybe if I’m hiding, no one will bother me. Wrong again! Eventually, I get up off the couch and check out what’s cooking in the kitchen. My stomach! It hurts so bad! Damn alcohol! I can tolerate some pancakes and eggs, but I’m not touching ANY champagne.

RU-469, Nub, and I make the trek back to MD, so that we can get dressed for the hash. It’s such a beautiful day outside! I think I’m gonna wear shorts! I probably won’t get another opportunity again this year.

It’s 2:40 and we’ve got to get to Eastern Market from BFE, MD. Are we gonna make it in time? Never fear, I’m a master navigator (sometimes). I direct Nub through DC city streets (actually just straight down North Capitol) until we see signs pointing us towards Eastern Market. We’re a ½ hour late, but we get there just in time for beginning circle. Late sign-in for me. I throw my bag into the vehicle just as they’re closing the door.

Whew! Running on a hangover and too little sleep is not a good idea. I’m SO slow today! But miracle of miracles! RU-469 is going to run with me. She never runs. What’s gotten into her, I wonder? It’s only me, RU-469, Doucheberg, and Hoover Daaaam as the DFLs. Don’t ask me why Doucheberg is a DFL – must be Hoover Daaaam’s influence (hee hee!).


And what’s with the violations? I’m getting violated every time I go to a hash. I’m just minding my own business today and Two Lips violates me for having scuffed-up knees. You couldn’t find anyone else to violate today or something?

Well, tomorrow is my first day on the new job and I want to leave a favorable impression, so it’s off to an early bedtime for me!

Loaded at Zig's Bar

RU-469 and I metro down to the Van Dorn station together. I would have driven to Knee Deep’s place, but for some reason thought that she wouldn’t have enough space and would need to get back home regardless of my intoxication levels. Boy, am I wrong! Knee Deep’s house has plenty of space and a beautiful patio. On top of that, Nub brought raspberry schnapps and champagne for tomorrow morning. Can’t wait to try that out!

After having a few drinks to build up our buzz, a sober member of our group, Carla, drives us over to Zig’s bar to catch Loaded’s performance. There’s too many of us to fit in the CRV. Oh no! What are we gonna do? Never fear! Nub provides a solution by climbing across the laps of all three girls in the back seat. Well, whattya know? Nub’s getting close and personal with 18 feet of woman! Nub, you keep trying, and someday, you may hit 20 feet!

When we walk into the bar, the management tells us that it’s very important for us to be quiet, so that all the other customers can hear the comedian. Unfortunately, I’m not known for my indoor voice and the manager has to come over and reprimand me. Fortunately, my food arrives shortly afterwards which prevents me from getting kicked out of the bar because I’m too busy stuffing my face full of cheese fries.

But my run-ins with the management don’t end there. It’s getting mighty crowded near the bar, so I go stand in the aisle around the seating area to get a better view of the comedian. Can you believe it? The manager tells me that I’m a “fire hazard”! The stinkin’ aisle is 4 feet wide. They’re telling me that MY body is going to prevent others from escaping?

Finally! Loaded comes on. They’re playing okay today, but they were better at the Halloween Full Moon. Regardless, a bunch of us go up to dance and party.

Where did the time go? They’re kicking us out at 12pm? Man, I am trashed. How much did I drink? I’m hanging all over Bolo. I guess I want his leopard-print coat. Bolo, that isn’t really your coat – is it? Tell me it belongs to I’d Do ‘Er. Nope. He bought it for himself from Goodwill. I can’t believe he actually wears it out in public!

Hockey Game

Earlier in the week, Can't Stop asked if a hasher would like to join him at the Caps game on Friday. I volunteered to accompany him since I've scheduled myself a break between my old and new jobs (besides, I haven't been to a hockey game in a couple of years).


Wow!! What great seats! We're in the second row from the glass right next to the visitor's penalty box. I've never sat down here before. It's pretty scary too. The puck hits the glass right in front of my face and so do the players. I've got my new Casio Exilim camera ready to take pics (thanks for the recommending it, OFE! You're an electronics genius!), but am so shocked everytime the players hit the glass that I'm unable to take a pic (I guess y'all now know you can't count on me in an emergency).

Within the first 2 minutes of the game a fight breaks out. Oh boy!! This is why people like watching hockey! And do I take any pics?
I tell Can't Stop, "I guess I should have taken a picture of that fight".
"Yeah, what's wrong with you?"
My reaction time isn't too good. But whattya know? I'm so fortunate to be sitting close to a heckler - this loyal Caps fan is just making fun of the Devil's players in the penalty box. What a riot!

And what a coincidence! My bosses from the distribution center are also at the game. They're up in the club level, so we head up to the Acela restaurant to hang out with them during the 2nd period. At least we get a free beer out of it (aren't my ex-bosses, great?). They love hearing about my hashing stories (I have to admit that working in a distribution center prepared me for hashing).

Damn! The Caps lose to the Devils 4 to 3. Not good.

Afterwards, we go to Fado's to meet up with Bow Chicka Bow Bow, OFE and Just Shannon. I'm starving! I totally inhale a corned beef sandwich as soon as I walk into the bar. OFE and JS have been drinking since 11:30am - dem drunk bastads! Y'all trying to set a record for most continuous drinking hours or something?

Around 5pm, Can't Stop and Bow leave to meet up with other friends and I piggyback with OFE and JS to go to Beltway Bob's at Rock Bottom. It takes forever to get there. Damn public transportation! The train breaks down at McPherson Square and all the passengers have to unload. OFE has no patience with metro. He's not used to riding. I've been riding metro daily for 4 years, so this is old hat for me.
He tells us, "I'd take a taxi, but I've been spending too much on cabbage."
Dude! That sounds like something I'd say! Is cabbage, in the sense you mean it, even a word?

And what the hell? We're early? It's 6:30pm and we're the first one's at the bar. No fear, Doucheberg to the rescue! Good! Someone for me to rag on (most people rag on me, so I'm happy to find a few I can molest - oops! maybe I should use a different verb? how about bother?)!

3 hours later, I'm ready to fall asleep.
I threaten everyone, "If y'all don't get me to some music, I'm gonna fall asleep."










No one wants to go very far, so we go to Clarendon Grille. OMG!! The band is awesome! They're an all-guy band called Liquid A and they ALL sing. They sing everything from Kanye West's "Golddigger" to Metallica's "Enter the Sandman" to Kenny Loggin's "Footloose". Please tell me how I can become their groupie! I'll check them out every week if I can! Ain't gonna fall asleep now! I can party all night as long as there's music!

Anal-versary

So today is my last day of work. Yippee!! I've put in 7 long years with Hecht's and although I love many people that I've encountered over my career here and enjoyed working in the distribution center and stores, I hated the culture (very bureaucratic).

So my co-workers and boss are taking me to lunch today since it's my last day - isn't that sweet? At lunch, my co-workers take one last opportunity to rag on me (cause I'm an easy target, you see...EVERYONE makes fun of me, EVERYWHERE I go - not that I mind of course). Teasing me about my fashion sense and my office antics (my humming/tooting, ADD, and hyper-activity). Tomorrow, I'll run into my former distribution center (DC) bosses (gotta say bye to my peeps!) at the hockey game and can take more of the same abuse (yes, I socialize with my DC bosses - I think they were hashers when they were younger).
My boss has one last task for me, though...."Dye your hair back!"
I'm tired of everyone telling me how they hate the color and I do hate my bangs, so I take the phone number of HER hairstylist and I make an appointment for 2:30pm. Well, 5 hours later, miracles have been performed. Why so long? Well, the first treatment wasn't effective and lost an hour (well, I did get some major reading done on Knife of Dreams - excellent so far, btw).

If I had taken my hash bag with me to the hair stylist everything would have been okay, but I left it at work so I had to hightail it from Georgetown back to Ballston and somehow pick up the main body of the hash. I find out where the beer check is by calling PSA who's brew-crewing tonight, and run (with my bag) to the Seebee Memorial (I think that's what it's called). I get there just as the last of the pack arrives.

Boy is it dark outside! Even with my headlamp on, I can't recognize anyone. And for a few moments there, I can't even locate MM!! I can always find him - I just have to stop and listen (he's very loud)! He's off taking a piss, apparently. That explains it - if you can't hear him, he's just NOT there.

We run back almost exactly the same way I came - at least I get a spot of exercise tonight! OFE highly discourages me from walking without a beer in my hand, but I mistakenly pick up a dark beer instead of the Miller High Life that's available. Yuck! that dark beer is really hoppy! Blaaaacccch! I don't wanna drink this.
I ask Porn to Fail, "Do you want my beer? I'll trade you."
"I've got the dark beer, too, hon. But mine's smaller."
MM interjects here, "PTF, why don't you double-fist her?"
MM!! Did you mean to say that??!! OMG! Ain't no type of fisting going on right here, thank you very much!

Today is my anal-versary (actually last week was, but who's counting?). I've logged 17 runs with EWH3 and get my necklace. Yay!! Now I can put my charms on my necklace and have people know who I am (but I won't stop my social routine, never fear!).

Surprise! Just Shannon is in town. Good to see you, girl! She's down from Buffalo for the weekend. She's got such a great sense of humor! I feel guilty, though, that I've been out of touch recently. With all the hoopla surrounding my resignation, I just haven't been as accessible via e-mail recently.

The on-on-on is at the Continental, which is 3 floors below us from the roof of the parking garage.
I ask RU-469, "Wanna go down with me?".
Provocative, aren't I? I do get a smile, though. I love making people smile!

Porn, keep your hands to yourself!! Just because I look warm doesn't mean I want your COLD hands on my belly! My temperature went down 5 degrees by warming you up. Very unpleasant AND shocking! Don't any of you other fools get any notions into your noggins! Don't grab what doesn't belong to you!

I've had quite a few drinks tonight between the rum and cokes and the jager-bomb (my first!).
OFE tells me, "The guys keep getting cuter and taller the more you drink, don't they?"
Hmmm....you know you just might be right about that, OFE. Drinking is a dangerous business - who knows what I might do?

I've found out. I get affectionate. Just Kelly and I hug and sway together for about 10 minutes. She's so adorable and friendly. It's no wonder everyone loves her.

Word Verification

You know...I normally don't care about those stinkin' word verification things. I read Can't Stop's blog on how he found "dnutz" and I thought to myself "What's the big deal?".

....until I went to post a comment on Ear Shot's blog, and I saw this:


Doesn't that look like "Oooohhh...F*ck You"? What's blogger up to now?? Did some hacker get inside them and say "I wanna mess with the word verification cause it sucks balls!!"?

$70 Worth of Food

Ahhh...it's so nice waking up to luxurious surroundings and chilled champagne. Mimosas! and how about some breakfast? It doesn't matter what - I'll eat anything! Just Keith can't stay for breakfast with the rest of us, so I walk him to the metro station. It's pretty hot outside and I work up a sweat while walking to the station (I'm walking bra-less, so I'm wearing a cardigan over my spaghetti-strap top). As soon as I return to the hotel room, I remove the cardigan and the others point out moisture spots under my tits.
MM shouts, "Let's re-name her Big Sweaty Titties! We've got a Big Sweaty P*ssy - they can be a pair!"
Dude! How many times have I told you! I'm NOT gonna get re-named! I won't have it!

Breakfast has already been rapidly devoured by the others (they did leave me some, though - very considerate!). And apparently, the room service guy had a heart attack when he entered the room. My bra hanging off the lamp, an air mattress on the floor, and bottles of booze littered around the room. I would have loved to have seen the expression on his face!

I can't leave this hotel room without experiencing the shower, though! Ooohhh...that feels so good! Great pressure! WTF??!! No locks on the bathroom door?! I ask for some toothpaste and MM walks in on me while I'm changing. MM! you could knock first!
I scream, "Aaaayyyy! Sh*t!"
OFE and M bust out laughing and tell me, "We loved the 'Aaaayyy'."
Sure you did, guys...Don't I get any sympathy for getting walked in on? Hmmmpphh!

Since we've gotta check out by 12pm, we rapidly pack all our stuff up and head to OFE's house to order those most excellent wings from the chinese joint near his house and watch some movies. We pull out the chinese take-out menu and order $70 worth of food - 20 chicken wings, steamed dumplings, crab rangoon, 3 12" subs, and more....all for 5 people! We are some eatin fools!

First, we watch the South Park movie while waiting for our food. Where the hell is it? The dude said it would be a 1/2 hour. Finally! The food has arrived after 45 mins! The movie is almost over, though! What'll we watch next? Oh! Van Wilder! Haven't seen that yet - should be good! Damn that Chinese food that makes you pass out! Does it have that tryptophan stuff in it? I really wanted to watch that movie!

At 3pm, MM and OFE drag my a$$ off the couch and tell me to go to the hash. Okay, guys! I've hung around y'all around all weekend - why stop now? I don't have running shoes, though.
MM yells at me, "I specifically told you to bring your sneakers with you! Why don't you have them?"
"I haven't been home since Friday afternoon! I forgot to pack them!"
OFE says, "I'm surprised you don't keep a pair in your car."
"So am I. It isn't like I don't have 6 pairs at home and couldn't leave one in my car..."


I guess I'm stuck on the walkers trail today (as long as there's no shiggy! Can't have my good clothes from last night ruined! Yes! I'm wearing the same shirt I wore last night, but diff pants).
I ask Designer Bush, "Can I get away with wearing slippers on trail?"
"I wouldn't if I were you."
Okay....but I really don't like how I'm looking today. Def NOT my best. And what's this? MM and OFE can't finish their mimosas? Of course, y'all donate the remainder to me - thanks, guys! Like I really need MORE to drink...

Chickies! Call OFE up and give him some sympathy (sex?) - he's in pain! When exiting one of the tunnels he gets stung multiple times by bees. Meatloaf and other girlies pull off his shirt to inspect the stings. Dude! you give them an excuse, they'll take advantage of you!


Finally, we're at the end! I'm tired of wearing my clod-hoppers and put my Mandarin Oriental slippers on. And what a co-inky-dink! PSA returns my bathrobe to me from the Lingerie Run!
MM sees me in the bathrobe and slippers and says, "That bathrobe better not be from the hotel!"
"Of course not! This bathrobe is from Hawaii!"
So what does he do? He violates me!
He says, "I'd like to violate LNDT for being an attention whore. Apparently, she's not satisfied in attracting attention for wearing the exact same clothing she wore last night because she hasn't been home in 48 hours, but has to wear a bathrobe and slippers too."
Dude! Can I keep any secrets from the hash?

Mandarin Oriental Hotel

So, MM has this $950 room for the weekend and invites a bunch of us to stay and party tonight. How could I pass this one up? The room is gorgeous! A balcony with a view of the Potomac, 3 televisions, including one in the bathroom (you can sit on the toilet and still not miss any of your favorite shows)!

I'm so proud of myself! Friendly Thighs comes by to visit and I help manage to convince her to come out with us to MM's hotel room (even if she is wearing a t-shirt and jeans). Girl! You always look good, no matter what you wear! Don't worry that I'm in my pimp outfit again (leather pants, hat, and sunglasses) - I'm just a show-off. I do try to get her to wear OFE's red dress from the red dress run, but she doesn't like how little the dress covers her a$$. I agree (although OFE doesn't - typical!). I am def uncomfortable when I feel like I've got parts hanging out.

We head out to party hop. First stop - Areola's birthday celebration at The Big Hunt. A decent crowd for 8:30pm. Lots of people are chowing down since the bar has reasonable food. We head out at 10pm for Her She Kisses' birthday party at Local 16. Damn! this bar is packed! We head upstairs for the outdoor patio - it's such a wonderfully warm evening! I guess everyone else has that idea, too.

When we return to the hotel, PSA, MM, Can't Stop, and Just Kelly are partying it up. JK is at it again! She's walking around with a blazer on and nothing underneath it. While we're outside on the balcony, she shows off her tits. That girl def has an impressive rack! DD, you know!

And why did I bring my Trendy Wendy doll? I knew it would cause nothing but trouble! As I walk into the hotel room, Can't Stop is wearing a hotel bathrobe and has my doll tucked into his pants. The fun doesn't stop there! After I recover my doll, I set her down and MM snatches her up and places her head down in his boxers. Dude! I can't touch that doll ever again!

Lady Luck


You Are Internal - Realist - Empowered

You feel your life is controlled internally.
If you want something, you make it happen.
You don't wait around for things to go your way.
You value your independence and don't like others to have control.

You are a realist when it comes to luck.
You don't attribute everything to luck, but you do know some things are random.
You don't beat yourself up when bad things happen to you...
But you do your best to try to make your own luck.

You have a good deal of power, but you also know the pecking order.
You realize that working the system does get you further.
You know who to defer to and who to control.
When it comes to the game of life, you play things flawlessly.
The Three Dimension Luck and Power Test

I think I'm lucky, but I certainly have NOT played the game of life flawlessly....

You Can't Give Me Away!

I LOVE my new white, furry hat! I'm wearing it every opportunity that I get! And earlier today, I posted my pimp name, so why shouldn't I dress like a pimp tonight? I'm Luscious Dynamite and I've got my pimp hat and sunglasses on!

While standing in line to sign in, I can't help but overhear one conversation...
MM tells Can't F*ck Dust, "I've got a blonde to give you."
"A blonde to give him?", I intrude, "You just go around giving girls to guys?"
MM shouts out, "If I could get some guy to take you, I would! I've been trying to GIVE you away for months!"
You know...that is so wrong! MM, why are so cruel to me? I guess it's my fault for butting in on the conversation - but how can anyone avoid listening? MM has the decibel level of a rock concert.

It's going to be a really long trail today. When we hit the shot check, I quickly slam 2 vodkas straight. Not cause I'm hardcore or anything, but cause anything wet will do. I'm so thirsty!! Thank God that the beer check isn't too far from the shot check, but my 2 shots have worn off already. That's what happens when you drink and run, isn't it?

Whew! That refreshing wind while I've been running is pretty chilly when I'm standing around. I'm shivering so bad that A Red River Runs Through It takes his shirt off and lets me wear it. ARRRTI, you're so sweet!

I don't know how behind schedule we are, but the hares announce at the beer check that we're gonna head straight for the end. You aren't gonna get any complaints from me!

Now, those poor twins! MM violates them cause "everyone wants to violate the twins." I didn't notice them at all until they were pointed out to me....where are my powers of observation going? I've got to get back in the swing of things! Where's my mind been?

When Am I Gonna Die?

I stole this from You Just Can't Stop! Na-na-na-boo-boo, I'm gonna live longer than you!

I am going to die at 83. When are you? Click here to find out!

Well, my great-grandma just died last year at 97 years of age - I would hope that I would last as long as her. And my Texas grandma is still a member of the Coast Guard and boogie boards with my cousins.

I wanna be a boogie-boarding granny someday!

The Virgin Wendy

So tonight I'm going to hare my first trail - I'm a virgin! The theme for tonight's hash (since it's All Saint's Day) is the Saints and Sinners Hash. Oh, what will I wear? My friend, S, comes up with a costume for me. I'm going as a virgin (don't laugh!)! She provides me with some Indian garb and off I go to do my best impression of the Virgin Mary. Of course, no one understands my costume. Someone calls me a suicide bomber. Thanks! I know I REALLY look Muslim....must be the hair....

Now since I'm a virgin, Lube is going to accompany me. Apparently, it's much easier your first time if someone's helping you all the way (pun! pun!). I'm going to lay the last 1 1/2 miles of the trail and will start at Ballston Mall. Since Lube is RA and can't leave until the circle breaks up, I wait for her. Well! Was that ever a mistake! Rear End Loader and various other people ask me why I haven't left yet - I can't tell them the plan. They threaten to de-pants me when they catch me. I'd like to see y'all try! Ain't gonna happen! But if the thought inspires you to run a bit harder, go right ahead!

Lube and I have no problem laying the trail. In fact, we walk it for the most part. Look! the trail is 5 1/4 miles long, if those wankers can catch up to us that fast, we deserve to be pantsed! After we arrive at the end, we take a walk around the parking garage to kill some time. On the top level there's a soccer/field hockey court with a port-a-potty beside it.
Lube tells me, "You know another reason why we didn't want you to hare by yourself is because there's a rapist in the area."
"I heard about that. Wasn't there an attack at one of the metro stations?"
"Yeah. Vienna."
"Well, look at this place wouldn't it be a perfect place for an attack?"
"Don't worry. We can both take 'em on." while performing a karate kick.
I laugh and the conversation moves along to another topic. About 10 minutes later, Lube and I are still standing next to the field hockey court when the door to the port-a-potty opens up! Dude! a bum just walks out of the port-a-potty! He's been there the entire time! We've been talking about rapists and sh*t and he heard every word we said! Talk about not paying attention!

When Porn to Fail arrives, I drive off with him to pick up the bag vehicle. When I return, all the runners and walkers are congregating around the beer and food. My eyes pop out, though, when I see Incredible Edible Shmeg. WTF??!! He took his pants off! He's only wearing a white thong and fairy wings! Dude! You are SO making me cold, prancing about like that! How distracting! I try not to stare, but it's a bit difficult to say the least.... Def entertaining though!
I ask Tuppy, "Is he a Sh*t hasher?"
"No, I think he's one of yours" (meaning a EWH3-er)
Hmmm....don't remember meeting him before. Mellow introduces himself to Shmeg.
Upon learning Shmeg's hash name, he says, "That makes us kind of related."
I ask, "How's that?"
"Shmeg is foreskin cheese."
Gross! Do I really need to know all this stuff? Hanging out with hashers may be educational, but I think I was better off before in my innocence....

Brain Patterns

Your Brain's Pattern

You have a dreamy mind, full of fancy and fantasy.
You have the ability to stay forever entertained with your thoughts.
People may say you're hard to read, but that's because you're so internally focused.
But when you do share what you're thinking, people are impressed with your imagination.
