Looking for that frisson again

[ItNeverSets]

Time to move on...

Hello Everyone!
I have been asked by EnglishAgain to introduce myself! I am the unfortunate soul that has been distracting him away from his own verbosity! In short I am the friend that lost his wife and has just realised that it is time to stop searching for her.

EnglishAgain (or whatever you like to call him, he goes by many pseudonyms) has been supporting my crumbling facade for the last 8 weeks. It has taken this long to come face to face with what went wrong and come to terms with the fact that there are things you have no control over.

I bring myself before you in the hope of beginning anew, not so much to reinvent myself as to rediscover the old person that has been in hiding for 7 years.

I don't know what I hope to find here, I just need to start looking...

There he goes...

Hello Everyone!

And so, smooth as sandpaper, my protegé of the past few weeks introduces himself to you all. I felt it only fair that once he got his head straight he come on here and apologise to one and all of you for dragging me away. Poor InRhapsody has given up on me completely, Wings has so much to tell (and we all have so many questions to ask) and the Seamstryss has a lifestyle to share with us that would make your ears slide down the side of your head and hide under your arms if she said it out loud. Katze was on the brink of something internationally marvellous, Scotsman just vanished, YET is off playing elsewhere and it's all my fault. I'm covered with confusion, I beg your forgiveness and I make a myriad of excuses. I know, I'm not worthy. Look, blame him, honestly.

Anyway, I'm off to rub my gums down with an onion ring. Looking forward to hearing from any of you gorgeous people. mwah....

Have fun

what's in a name?

Hello Everyone!

EnglishAgain (or whatever you like to call him, he goes by many pseudonyms)

Pseudonyms? Nom-de-plume? An alias? Well yes, I am simply protecting my normal everyday identity from those who would not understand. You know how Bruce Wayne is really Batman? Well, I have to finally own up and tell you my alter ego is none other than....Mary Poppins. Practically pervert in every way...

Hi EA! Good to see you around! I bumped your other thread - the Frisson, part 2. lol I thought this thread has been abandoned long ago.

Hello to your friend too (I'm sorry, I forgot his name). But anyway, pleased to meet you, friend of EnglishAgain!

I too have been out of Lit lately, due to technical problems. Anyway, I wish you a nice evening, and a nice week ahead!

 

[ItNeverSets]

Forgot my name already?

My name is something that I made up earlier. It's origins lie in my dream of writing a book, the first line of which was always destined to be "Concrete never sets". It's a fact that I learnt many years ago and it stuck in my potato shaped head.

The older concrete gets, the harder it becomes. This conjures visions in my mind of something that is always on a journey, never arriving at a destination. This is my view on life, I will never be where I want to be. There is always something new to sense, to feel, to explore.

Am I deep or what!? I need more beer methinks!

I am looking forward to meeting and experiencing new things and people!

Welcome to you and give EA a big hug and kiss from me....I miss him.

 

[RuneBlade]

Welcome ItNeverSets! Hmmm, someone we can work over to get the goods on EA. And honestly, he doesn't seem so bad himself.

Get him, girls! *points, cackling like a bad 60's Batman villain*

(as if I could command the throngs, as if they needed commanding, hah!)

 

[EnglishAgain]

Hug and kiss for EA?

Morning, one and all,
Welcome back, Katze, good to see you again. InRhapsody, we all miss you, but I miss you more than anyone else simply because you're mine. Mine I tell you...bwah ha ha ha ha.....

Hi Rune, there are no goods to be had on me, you can't get the skinny, the lowdown, the inside track. It's simple because I'm simple. You know the onions have layers type of thing? I have no layers. I'm more like a stick of gum, I just go on and on and on and on and on.....



and on and on and on.....


By the way, ItNeverSets was staying at my place over the weekend so he has been posting directly before or after me, but after today he's on his own. I'm setting him adrift on the free-flowing river of madness of his life so he may post at will.

and Will can post back at him.

 

[ItNeverSets]

A hug and a kiss for EA?

Well if you insist IR then I guess I will have to give in and allow my true feelings for EA to come forth!

As for getting the goods on EA... Well let's just say that I don't have room here to dish all the dirt there is on him! We have been friends for nearly 20 years and we have travelled to the far corners of the globe together hand in hand! You are not the first to ask for the dirt on EA but I always say the same thing: there is a price!

The plot, it thickens!

I do like grilled onions, mmmm,mmm,mmm!

I like green onions too, but there's no lyrics for that one.

Well INS...as EA seems to have really forgotten me, I will flirt with you. I am a pretty okay looking American girl (and EA and Rune can verify this) and smartish too. Glad you are joining us on this journey into hell. (giggle) As I am sure EA (and I do know his given name - ) can also attest I am an Anglophile and LOVE anything and everything English. If you need a hand to hold or an ear to listen...let me know. TTFN. Oh and hand in hand with him doesn't worry me, if I can be in the middle.

 

[ItNeverSets]

How on earth could he forget you?

Hi IR,
I am honoured to be invited along on your journey into hell! I think I was kinda headed that way anyway...

EA has told me that you are more than okay looking but that is not what interests me at the moment. The offer of a hand to hold is enough right now. I know that EA would only ever converse with articulate and intelligent people so I know that you must be more than "smartish".

I havn't had much contact with the good old USA up to now. The only time I have set foot in your country was to change planes at Newark Airport on the way back from South America! So to me you are an exotic and exciting flower, seen and smelt for the first time on the roadside as I wander along.

There is a hole in my life at the moment but I am not yet sure what shape it is, all I know is that it's huge and you could easily drive a bus into it! So if it's ok with you, I will hold your hand and maybe nibble your ear as we continue on our downward spiral.

Of course, darling, my hand is extended and my ear is here to nibble or listen whatever you need.

Well Ea..not sure how I can be yours, you have left me floudering for weeks on end. so I will flirt with your friend and if you chose to duel over me..all the better. Perhaps Rune might want some of this too. LOL I am so glad your back.

 

[RuneBlade]

Well I've got the avatar for it, I've got that much going for me.

 

[Inrhapsody]

Well I've got the avatar for it, I've got that much going for me.

WOW.. a new AV...nice You also have that you are maybe 20 mins away from me, which is much closer then these two. LOL

 

[Noor]

Well INS...as EA seems to have really forgotten me, I will flirt with you. I am a pretty okay looking American girl (and EA and Rune can verify this) and smartish too.

He forgot me too

Hi Everyone, Hi INS!

 

[Inrhapsody]

He forgot me too

Hi Everyone, Hi INS!

Oh Noor...sobs on her shoulder. We can cry together.

 

[RuneBlade]

WOW.. a new AV...nice You also have that you are maybe 20 mins away from me, which is much closer then these two. LOL

That's right, better be good, or they might send a paddling your way!

 

[EnglishAgain]

Poor Noor, mentioned no more. She's sore, I am sure

He forgot me too

Hi Everyone, Hi INS!

Oh the shame, the terrible burning at the back of my eyes as the tears well up and I realise the devastation I have left behind. I am desolate, my soul cries from within me, cursing myself for my frivolousness and the callous disregard with which I have treated you, my wondrous elusive Noor.

or to put it another way...sorry.

You're quite right, I have been remiss in not being here, but now that INS can be here occasionally we may perhaps revive the sense of fun we once shared here. Note that he wants to write one day, he feels he has a book inside him (avoid the obvious jokes here) and only lacks the drive to do it. I can vouch for the fact he's much more interesting than I and has many great stories to tell (although none top my fence climbing antics, if you've heard that one).

I must away to work, but not for long. I've received a special secret letter that says the Nigerian oil minister wants to share some ill-gotten gains with me. Hurrah. Just sending him my bank details now. If anyone else wants to contact me, I'll be in the jacuzzi, wallowing in luxury.

Welcome ItNeverSets! Hmmm, someone we can work over to get the goods on EA. And honestly, he doesn't seem so bad himself.

Get him, girls! *points, cackling like a bad 60's Batman villain*

(as if I could command the throngs, as if they needed commanding, hah!)

The thongs are yours to command. Tangas, Briefs, Slips and belly warmers will all follow.

So many capital letters? IR, USA, EA, INS. Oh my word.

Ok, let's be serious for a moment shall we? Come on, sit down and drink this. No, it's not drugged, shame on you for even thinking it. Although, if that's one of your fantasies, to be drugged and kidnapped, taken somewhere to awaken, woozy and terrified but illicitly thrilled, then we can talk about that later.

I came on here looking for intelligent yet deviant people, for those with wit, warmth, imagination and a refusal to accept the absurdity of their everyday life. Why do you come here? Do any of you write? Isabella King seems to be a proper writer, with verbs and everything. Does everyone else like to write, or to read, or simply come here for the human contact? I'm curious.

No, not bi-curious. Not my thing. Watched bareback mountain the other week for the first time and decided I'd look ridiculous in a cowboy hat anyway. Also watched Mama Mia though, so does that tell you I'm in De Nile?

Rampant bambi-ism here I come.

I began where I should have, at the beginning and kudos not only to you EA, but your wee buddie north of you. I have little clever to add, my somewhat feeble accross the "pond" mind still stuggling with words longer than one syllable, other than my unique ability to shout through the double wide. "Honey get me another damn PBR!" Then listen contendly as my lovely niece, grand daughter, mother and aunt rolled into one stammers to the plastic cooler, dips her hands into the now melting ice, and races back to hold the antenna before the commercials end so I can continue watching professional wrestling.

Frankly I find you very amusing, and I think you'd be a spectacular hit here at the trailer park, so be sure to keep track of me should you ever visit stateside. I would even do the honor of taking the 'maro off the blocks, searching through the weeds, finding four bald tires and driving to pick you up at the bus stop. (Try to make it on a Wednesday, as that's when they have their beer and cigarette specials and I'm not sure I can siphon enough gas for more than one round trip into town.)

Anyway, gotta run, the little lady's bitching about the outhouse being backed up again, so it looks like I have something to do this afternoon.

I'll post more later after I again change my identity so I can get away from the sexual preditor list.

Yours always
John

OMG now I am torn...who do I run to...John and his doublewide? Or EA in the British country side? hummmm I just don't know... one potato, two potato or is it pA tA toe in England. I need to make a pros and cons list. I'll be back
