I realize that I once told you that you were sexy when you're angry, but if the sheer amount of stress caused by arguing with people who have the receptiveness of a brick wall makes you explode, I will _not_ be a happy camper. (Not to mention the fact that the person who should be reading your rants isn't even in the fucking mansion.) So, find your fucking happy place, or I'll be forced to do something drastic.
:P

Subject: Drastic? What's that?
My happy place is a snowboarding resort about an hour's drive from here, for the weekend. Come keep me warm?

Next time, we go somewhere warm. I hear places like that actually exist.
(And I'm stealing your coat.)

Well, it was either this or Florida for some quality rollercoasters, but I don't feel like that kind of a trip on such short notice. We can definitely do somewhere warm next time. I'll let you pick, even.
This trip was Marie's idea, so she's going to be coming along, too. I'm tempted to drag Angelo along, if he's out of the medlab by then. Y'know, get a few friends who could use a less stressful environment for a weekend, and go do unwind-y things. Like make complete idiots out of ourselves, trying to snowboard without a clue.
I'd spring a romantic weekend away on you, just for the two of us, but I wasn't sure how it would go over. If you want to do that dinner while we're out there, though, I'll pack a suit if you pack that nice number you picked up, and we'll find somewhere nice and quiet.
(And yes. You can steal my coat.)

Subject: Sounds like a plan.
Rollercoasters? Not so much. Remember, your girlfriend lives down in the basement for a reason.
And more people coming is fine by me. I'm not trying to get away from everybody, just trying to get away from everybody arguing. I'd love to do dinner, just as long as I can talk Hank out of a image inducer for the weekend, just in case. Hopefully, there will be no stress-causing revelations to fuck things up this time.
(Good. Otherwise I was going to freeze to death.)

If it's any comfort, I've never been on a rollercoaster, either. I might very well hate them, too. Good point, though. I don't think we need to worry about it at all 'til at least March, anyway.
We'll definitely do dinner, then. I'll see if I can find somewhere suitably nice in the area, and in the very unlikely chance that I can't, we can always order in. Given how you're going to look, maybe that's the most intelligent option anyway. Hmm..
(I'd never let that happen, luv. Much too attached to you to do without.)

I nearly used "bloody" as part of a string of obscenities the other day. You're rubbing off on me.
How fucking cute.Re:

I'm corrupting you without realizing it, am I? I suppose that's only fair.
And yes, it is fucking cute.Re:

I gave you a dirty look. Unfortunately, it's not very effective when you aren't around to see it.
I don't do cute.Re:

I am deeply wounded just the same.
Does 'sexy' sound better?Re:

Subject: Wuss.
It does. However, I can't figure out how my picking up parts of your vocabulary qualifies as 'sexy'.Re:

Subject: I'm getting better.
Well, it's my opinion that everything about you is sexy. It's to be expected that you picking up bits of my vocabulary would be included.

Oooh, good answer. I'm impressed. (I think I owe you a kiss for that. Possibly several.)

I speak only the truth. Shall I come down, then? (I do actually have a question for you, but it can wait until after those kisses, I think.)

Come on down. Don't even have to walk through the door this time.
