SIL RSVP'd to the evite, with the comment "S---- E---
Arthur, to play with the other children :-)"
Um...that animal is badly trained, unpredictable,
and capable of breaking bones with its beak. It ain't
gettin' near any kids in my damn house. Let that
feathered crapbag mangle children on their
time/dime, not mine.
Also wierd that she and E both rsvp'd with 2
guests. Wonder if that makes a total of 4 people?
Or they just didn't talk to each other about it first
and included each other in their response. hmm.

someone from going after you on the theory that
your pockets are deeper than SIL's.
Better if she doesn't bring the bird at all....
but we all know how successful an attempt to dissuade
them from bringing him would be.

I'm going to have it set up, I'm going to have
his stand away from the food and chairs/furniture,
if people want to see him, they can approach his area. I
won't have them carrying him all over my house, shitting on
everything an scaring people. (my friend Mandi is invited but hasn't
rsvp'd yet,she is actually phobic of birds)
Another twist...rumor has it that at the last (?)
HFS gathering in the park, A gave E his rings
back and has taken up with one "Malamorf". I looked for
pictures of him on the HFS page, but he's wearing a
black ski mask in all of them.
The HFS person who told me this says that the rumor
is that A is leaving E for this 19 year old
guy, but I told her about A's 'polyamory' and said
that unfortunately she wont' be leaving E as long
as he's still giving her what she wants (house,
land, etc.) *sigh* That would have been nice, though.

You mean the wedding ring and engagement ring?
Rilly? Whatta slap in the face.
Her amory has never been poly. I wish I could say
that she only loves herself, but she doesn't even do
that. All of her selfishness comes from the fact
that she really, deep down, hates who she is and
wants to make up for that by focusing other people's
attention on her, hoping that she'll see a better
reflection in their eyes than she sees in the
mirror.
She disgusts me, E.
I hope the bird behaves. If your phobic friend
comes, you might tell SIL, one of our guests has a
serious bird phobia, and I would appreciate it if
you would do her and us the kindness of leaving
Arthur at home.
It probably wouldn't work, tho.
==================================
In our evites, I saw that Kim/Silvana from HFS is
going to be at the party. She is the person who
eyewitnessed this ring-throwing event and told Liz,
the other HFS person, who then asked me about it, via
ICQ. I'm sure she and her hubby, Travis/Terwin will
just be at Decemberween for the potential drama, I'm
sure, as she doesn't know me from Eve. But I'll be
interested in talking to her about when this happened
and what exactly was said/done.
Liz theorizes that SIL has 'histrionic personality
disorder'...which would explain why she decided to
publicly humilate E by throwing his rings in his
face.
And it does fit her MO to pick another vulnerable
young guy who is just about to get out of college
(E and J were about that age when she first got
the both of them.)
I'm sorry you're disgusted. I am too. This isn't fun
gossipy stuff anymore, is it? :( I'll try not to give
you any more updates;it's too upsetting for all
concerned.
I hope Arthur behaves too. I will have to make sure
they understand that the bird has to stay in his own
spot all night, and not be circulated among people who
may not want to be up close & personal with him.
He's pretty much the last of my worries at this
point...I wonder why E hasn't been in touch with
me?

There are rumors a-flyin' at the 'High Fantasy
Society', the group E&A hang out with on
weekends for role playing, dressing up in costumes &
showing off their animals.
Apparently, last weekend A gave E 'his rings'
back and has 'taken up with' a 19 year old guy who is
another member of HFS
Everyone in HFS thinks she will leave E for the
guy, but I know better. This all part of "The
Adventures of S the Polyamorous Bisexual Strega
High Priestess"--she isn't giving up anything,
especially not while the gravy train's still runnin'.
We have an RSVP from the person who witnessed this &
her husband, so I guess we may end up hearing all
about it.
However, E & A have both RSVPd that they are
coming, and A's reply said it will be her, E
and the bird...WIERD.
I feel bad for E. I wonder why he hasn't been in
touch? Maybe it was just a spat and things are OK
now... Should I get in touch with him and ask him
what's going on? I want him to know I'm there for him,
but I do not want to pry into things that he doesn't
want me in, you know?
Her advice came too late. I emailed him & called & left a msg on
their phone, under the pretexts of "getting my headcount straight".
haha.

I don't think you should say anything, especially since it is second
hand info., and E may just be willing to have certain aspects in
his relationship with her that others may not understand or approve
of, but there isn't anything we can do. I'd suggest just staying
friendly and available for him. When he needs you, he will know that
you are there. He knows how much you care.
love you, it's great that you are such a good friend.
xoxo-X
*hug*
Still v. busy - but I wanted to say you can talk it out with me
whenever.... sometimes it is hard to know when/whether talking about
something is helpful or just fuels bad feelings... but usually, there
is some value, even if it is just hearing someone else confirm that
what you're feeling isn't totally out there.
I love you and I am thinking positive thoughts for your party - and
everything.
XOXOXO!

I know that moving is stressful & that things can get
said from stress, overwork, being tired, etc, that
nobody really means. And I've seen you and A have
fights that looked like 'the end of the world' to me
but ended up being OK after all.
Which is why I'm taking the rumor about you & A
breaking up with a HUGE block of salt, and telling the
folks who ask me about it that I don't know nothin'
'bout nothin'. Ultimately, it's between you and her
and none of anyone elses business.
But, if you want to talk or need anything, I am here &
I love you.
XO!
