I'm Turning 40 This Year

@Mr Stillwater,

I wonder if the Lady Diane is still a notary? Is she licenced in Vegas?

Once upon a time, in an Abuzz far away, we found a site in Vegas where they had wedding webcams. It was strangely fascinating.

So. Hoping to be Mrs Stillwater the Second?

@Mr Stillwater,

Is that a dum-dum?

The Zombie is an exceptionally strong cocktail made of fruit juices, liqueurs, and various rums, so named for its perceived effects upon the drinker. It first appeared in the late 1930s, invented by Donn Beach (formerly Ernest Raymond Beaumont-Gannt) of Hollywood's Don the Beachcomber restaurant. It was popularized soon afterwards at the 1939 New York World's Fair.

@littlek,

I recommend something excessively adventurous, certainly memorable to all in your immediate sphere of influence, and not too painful either emotionally or physically -- which could mean some combination of alcohol and public nudity, but without any unfortunate photographic evidence.

Confiscate cellphones in advance of the event.

Then again, maybe you could just bungee-jump or parasail (sober and clothed, I'm meaning). Have you ever parachuted? That's a good one for 40 ...

@PDiddie,

parachuting? <thud> No thanks! Hey PDiddie!

@littlek,

Yo, k.

Well for beginners they have that tandem-jump thing. As safe as that sort of thing can get. I haven't done it but I know people who have who told me that the adrenaline high lasted for several days afterward. That seems kind of interesting.

@littlek,

I refused to parasail, never mind parachuting from a plane, after a friend/co-worker, a woman who was a top skier and used to play pickup football at the beach, told me about having trouble getting the damn thing to land..
I admit liking to play as a kid with my dad's parachute and parachute seat...

but I've always been on the clumsy side - though with enough spurts of momentary brilliance that my ego managed ok.

(Hi, Pdid)

Does this refer to parachuting in some form??

Or going to Vegas with Mr Stillwater! Cool

I hope both you and your freshly pressed sailor suit are in or around Bahstin, then!

@margo,

Why, THANK YOU Margo! [dripping with irony]

I have gone from 'in-with-a-chance' to 'wabbit-fodder' overnight. And now, you're fixing up my bride-to-be (could you remind which one it is, things are a little vague) with a pouncy sailor.
