Saturday, December 08, 2007

Last weekend we went to dinner at a home of self-professed anarchists. What does this mean, exactly? Well, among other things, it meant that their six year old was allowed to scribble on the walls (aka "cute" to an anarchist) and letting the twin weasels (aka ferrets) shit all over the floor. My life has no room for anarchy, thank you very much. And no, we will not be coming for New Years'.
And now this weekend, we went to dinner to someone else's home. Two individuals. One of whom spoke not a word to me. Not one. How is this possible?
Should I let you in on a very personal secret at this time? Did you know that I genuinely dislike people? Because there is something wrong with almost each and every one of them, while I, on the other hand, am absolutely 100% perfect (tongue planted firmly in cheek).

    Sounds like a lovely dinner party ... for the ferrets!

    And thanks Cathy - for stopping in yesterday and commenting and for reading my miserable scribblings. ... Your's are precious minutes and I appreciate the ones you spend with me.

    Best,
    Richard

    Oh my, you dislike me? I'm gutted.

    Maybe you should have drawn on the walls if it's that cute?

    anarchy should mean more important things that chaos (if embraced). That dinner party must have been poo.
    Oh Cathy I dislike people too. Sometimes when they pass me by on the street i mumble "shoo!"

    I don't much like people any more either, maybe it's because I'm getting old and crotchedy. I have no patience for kids who behave that way, and the ferrets, well a swift kick on my way out the door would have been in order, lol...ciao

    It's too bad all the perfect people we know are here on the internet, and not just down the street :) We should have a virtual dinner party or something.

    Coluld the non-speaking person just be inredibly shy around people they haven't met yet?

    I once had dinner with a couple, where the girl (fiancee of the guy, at that time) who sat across the table from me and spent the whole meal looking at the guy talking about people I'd never met.

    The guy involved was Juan, my best friend, and she is his wife now. But we are still.. reserved with each other, over 10 years later.
