No matter how much hard work and sacrifice it takes on my part. I see in her some redeeming, positive qualities that perhaps nobody else has ever seen, including her parents. As such, I'm going to endeavour to make us best friends by the end of next week. We'll be closer than me and AB, and let me tell you, we're VERY close. You have to be with AB, or you just don't feel anything, if you know what I'm saying. But I digress. Nero, take my hand and let's walk down the street, kicking stones as we go, eating ice-cream and running around until the sun goes down.

Sushi is the way to her heart!

RUN Nero!! RUN!!!!

I don't generally eat ice cream, I regret to inform you. I'm not lactose intolerant, but I like to avoid most things dairy. Although, I'm a butter snob and I enjoy cheese at times.

But then again, if it's green tea ice cream, say no more, future best friend.

and Elvis!

Nero said:

Green tea ice-cream it is! I'll invite you over to play and we can ride my father in-law's crapped out bicycle through the streets. We'll take it in turns, one of us riding and the other one on the back holding the stick to ward off the neighbourhood dogs.

CynthiasSocks said:

ELVIS! ELVIS!

Fine... A bicycle it is.

I'd like to beat the dogs first, though. My, how I enjoy that sort of thing....

Nero said:

You can beat the dogs all the time if you like. I'd do anything for you, my best friend. I'll ride the bike, you beat the dogs. Together we'll cover every square metre of my town and maim every dog that stands in our way, or indeed stands somewhere else minding its own business before being beaten over the head with a stick.

Fauxie said:

You are such a kind and sweet man, Fauxie. In fact, my opinion of you has grown times ten since we first began our friendship affair not a week ago. I hang on your every word....

Nero said:

There was a time when you hung on my every other word. That's tangible progress!

My opinion of you has grown at least ten fold too. I really quite like you now.

Fauxie said:

We're having a moment, aren't we?

I will send you a lock of my hair, friend.

2the9s said:

Ugliest hand ever.

BTW, shouldn't you be doing some reading?

Nero said:

Confession: I spent time in Memphis and when the cabby said should I take you to Elvis mansion?

My response? HELL NO! He reports I was the first tourist in Memphis to refuse the tour!

Muse2NOPharaoh said:

I don't like you. Again.

Nero said:

And I will do likewise. Does it have to be from my head? I'm thinning a little and I'd like not to encourage the retreat.

Fauxie said:

Send it from your pits or your yodel patch. Either way, I shall be content knowing I have a few strands from the body of my new friend.

Nero said:

I'll Fedex it too.

This friendship thing is quite good actually. I don't mind it at all.

Any chick who can post a thread about the size of a woman's clitoris is o.k. by me!

Imago777 said:

Right!

Imago777 said:

Hmm. I think you're jealous of my new friendship.

Ugh, and after I changed my myspace colors for you!

Nero said:

Right!

Here is how I will forever picture our friendship, based on our mutual ideas of one another:

Imagine a dark, stone-cobbled street with a small table and two chairs. On the table are two cups of tea. Earl Grey, naturally. Rain is pouring all around us, but because of his devotion as my constant and best friend, Fauxie is standing to my right shoulder, holding a large umbrella over both of our heads so as to not get us wet. And there I sit, beneath the dry comfort of the umbrella and the warmth of his friendly love, reading a large historical fiction, giggling like a school girl.

Ever so often, I reach in front of me, and pick up a cup of tea, and hand it to Fauxie in his free hand, so that he may have a sip.

Nero said:

That wasn't sarcasm.
I was being sincere.

Imago777 said:

Now you're trying to wedge between my new found friend and I, aren't you?

Nero said:

that is one of the most romantic exerpts I have ever read. Honestly.

Would you like me to tell you how I picture our friendship?
