WE'VE HAD HOUSEGUESTS LIKE THIS
Update on the woman who spent two years in her boyfriend's bathroom.
Key Quote Indicating That We Do Not All Agree on the Meaning of "Normal": They had conversations and had an otherwise normal relationship — except it all happened in the bathroom.

I am having a hard time not giggling at the comments of Sheriff Whipple.

Some questions that pop to mind:
- what toilet did he use?
- how does one sleep on the can or did she secretly hop into the tub when he wasn't looking?
- does this mean she didn't take a shower for the whole time?
- one guesses that overall bathroom hygiene goals were suspended?
- did he bring in the TV on special nights, like for 24, Lost, Idol, Wall Street Week?
- did the kids knock on the bathroom door for Halloween?
- did he bring her a tray for breakfast, lunch and dinner?
- someone please make me stop.

"like she didn't know what was going on, except she was awake"
That describes many people that I know.

Hallmark Cards for Toilet/Bathroom Romance:
You bowl me over!
Jiggle my handle, cause I feel flush around you!
You make me wanna take the plunge!
My head's in a swirl 'cause I'm flush with love with you!
[think Sinatra for this one]
I've got you, under my rim...

You all might like this site created by the folks at Hallmark's Shoebox division.

It's full of stuff they don't/can't make into cards and random funny things they think of daily.
"Monk", in art (graphics) school in NY, way back when (I did more than attend psychedelic animation festivals), Hallmark came every year to recruit cartoonists and card maker types. Of course, you had to move to Kansas City to work for them. The joke around school was that, your first year, you scoffed at the idea of Kansas City, Hallmark and greeting cards in general; the second year, you scoffed at the idea of moving to Kansas City; and the third year, by which time you had a clue of what awaited after graduation, you showed up early so they'd see how prompt and responsible you could be.

Lairbo, here's another one from Ol' Blue Eyes:
Down and down I go
Round and round I go
In a spin
Lovin' the spin that I'm in . . .

Re: "Normal" relationship -- You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Ooh, Lairbo - thanks!

I let my ex sit on the couch for well over two years. I confess, his butt became attached to it.
Please send a cute cop over to arrest me.
