...get a good consolation prize?

I've got good news and I got baad news. What's the bad news? I was first out at poker. I'm sure you will be able to read all about that on Stine's blog. I went out without a definitive conflict with John sadly. My one consolation in that respect was that John went out soon after me despite his new "game plan" which I still maintain is drink more and lose to Kevin.

My real consolation came during the game. My plan was simple: lure beautiful women into your room with reruns of 2 year old tv shows. Little did I know how perfectly it would work on this night. Erin has been asking for a long time to see the pilot episode of Lost which I have on my computer. SO, she was in my room innocently watching that. Then, her pal Emily decided to join her. Keep in mind that my air conditioning was on strategically low. They both had a blanket from me that they borrowed to keep warm. I went to check on the game and when I returned, I found none other than the following scene:


My addition to the room created a spark of energy that could be felt reverberating through the three of us. The girls became so enamored with my presence that they were moved to make out. This seemed promising. Sadly, multiple things came to light simultaneously:
1. Emily has terrible kissing aim (straight up was the direction she decided Erin was in. Perhaps she had been watching Ghostbusters recently and thought Erin might be floating directly above her.

2. Emily was going for the inital closed mouth kiss to warm things up. Erin had different plans and thought she'd try the partially open mouthed route.

3. Erin may or may not have fallen asleep en route to Emily's waiting lips.

4. I had to make a snap decision whether to take a picture of the event, or play romantic music on my keyboard in hopes of proloning the moment.

I think you all see which decision I made in regard to item 4. Enjoy!
