The Chaisse Lounge

ok, in layman's terms, it's a couch. sit back and relax. kick your feet up whilst those poetic thoughts come together in your mind. oh, and the crayons are for doodling. yes, you can write on the furniture. go ahead.

~wolf Wed, Dec 9, 1998 (20:01) #1

i'm the first one on the couch!! hahahahahaha....

~KitchenManager Wed, Dec 9, 1998 (20:04) #2

be that as it may, I'm the first one on it naked!!!

~wolf Wed, Dec 9, 1998 (20:07) #3

oh wer! you shoulda waited for me to put the plastic on it!

~KitchenManager Wed, Dec 9, 1998 (20:13) #4

especially since I hope that it is a crayon that I feel beneath me...

~wolf Wed, Dec 9, 1998 (20:23) #5

it has to be, i'm no where's near you. me or any of my doglike appendages (i.e. tail)

~autumn Wed, Dec 9, 1998 (20:52) #6

Ugh! Slipcovers??

~PT Thu, Dec 10, 1998 (01:34) #7

Instead what would you rather have?

~jgross Thu, Dec 10, 1998 (06:30) #8

just slips or what're they called? oh yeah.....negligees or body veils or ya know how it is when a movie is being projected on your body veil and the scenes of the movie go through the veil and make contact with yer skin? ya know, huh, ya know? well, the whole story of the movie enters into you and but don't depend on it, don't use it, don't count on it okay? huh? okay?

~wolf Thu, Dec 10, 1998 (07:59) #9

alright, no slip covers, just a heavy application of stain preventer (the name of the stuff slips my mind-hehe)

~KitchenManager Thu, Dec 10, 1998 (09:24) #10

Scotchguard, perhaps?

~wolf Thu, Dec 10, 1998 (09:29) #11

yes! thank you much.

~PT Thu, Dec 10, 1998 (12:41) #12

Sometimes stains tell stories. They sort of chronicle the history of a piece.

~wolf Thu, Dec 10, 1998 (17:01) #13

i don't know that i want to be associated with any stains in this place. anyway, we need to keep from spreading communicable diseases anyway!

~stacey Thu, Dec 10, 1998 (18:11) #14

I like the idea of negligees all around or maybe a teddy (correct spelling for the intended meaning?)

~KitchenManager Thu, Dec 10, 1998 (23:14) #15

lacy+body hair=not good

~stacey Fri, Dec 11, 1998 (09:31) #16

is it leather that goes better with body hair?

~KitchenManager Fri, Dec 11, 1998 (09:34) #17

yessum...

~KitchenManager Fri, Dec 11, 1998 (09:37) #18

then again, silk does as well, but silk goes with everything!

~stacey Fri, Dec 11, 1998 (09:51) #19

raw or that extra shiny stuf?

~KitchenManager Fri, Dec 11, 1998 (09:53) #20

raw is good...

~wolf Fri, Dec 11, 1998 (10:36) #21

yeah, raw is good (imagine that coming from a wolf *grin*)

~PT Fri, Dec 11, 1998 (11:36) #22

Very appropriate.

~autumn Sat, Dec 12, 1998 (19:59) #23

OK, so we're on the raw silk. Now what?

~PT Sun, Dec 13, 1998 (00:01) #24

Now, we get comfortable.

~PT Sun, Dec 13, 1998 (00:02) #25

And read some poetry.

~pmnh Sun, Dec 13, 1998 (12:33) #26

(hope y'all don't mind ee christening y'all's couch) (and this is legitimately a couch-time poem) may i feel said he (i'll squeal said she just once said he) it's fun said she (may i touch said he how much said she a lot said he) why not said she (let's go said he not too far said she what's too far said he where you are said she) may i stay said he (which way said she like this said he if you kiss said she may i move said he is it love said she) if you're willing said he (but you're killing said she but it's life said he but your wife said she now said he) ow said she (tiptop said he don't stop said she oh no said he) go slow said she (cccome?said he ummm said she) you're divine!said he (you are Mine said she) - e. e. cummings

~wolf Sun, Dec 13, 1998 (13:39) #27

whoa baby!

~KitchenManager Mon, Dec 14, 1998 (00:05) #28

definately apropriate for our couches...

~PT Mon, Dec 14, 1998 (11:34) #29

Good choice!!

~KitchenManager Mon, Dec 14, 1998 (23:39) #30

um, Madame Host, when can the debauchery begin?

~pmnh Tue, Dec 15, 1998 (05:19) #31

maybe you should consider an extra coat of scotchguard (or two)

~wolf Tue, Dec 15, 1998 (08:47) #32

consider it done!

~PT Tue, Dec 15, 1998 (12:02) #33

The way things were going, I was thinking something more like a plastic sheet.

~stacey Tue, Dec 15, 1998 (17:49) #34

but that wouldn't be as comfy

~wolf Tue, Dec 15, 1998 (18:23) #35

besides, we can all chip in for the drycleaning!

~KitchenManager Tue, Dec 15, 1998 (18:42) #36

that's what I'm talkin'bout!

~jgross Tue, Dec 15, 1998 (20:45) #37

a teensie little toe be runnin' up my thigh if it goes any higher, I might cry... ...cry out that it has now begun and you can look where you might for your part of any of the fun it'll touch you where you least expected it though nobody's really perfected it

~jgross Tue, Dec 15, 1998 (20:52) #38

I think I got a gander from the holy ghost I never felt so much in a single post worries are fleeing and the laugh is sweet you're off your rocker and I'm off my feet

~KitchenManager Tue, Dec 15, 1998 (22:17) #39

from up above and atop this cloud of those on this couch I am the most proud my friends, my foes, my lifelong desires, pass 'round the marshmallows and light the fires tell a good joke, scribble some verse of all the bad things our silence is worse respond as you like, as you will, as you might for while I go wander to you all a grand night!

~PT Wed, Dec 16, 1998 (15:19) #40

That is the best "good night", I've ever heard.

~KitchenManager Wed, Dec 16, 1998 (18:25) #41

so, what's for breakfast, Big Boy?

~PT Thu, Dec 17, 1998 (13:03) #42

I've always been partial to a 20oz T-Bone steak, a half dozen eggs over easy, and three large pancakes.

~stacey Thu, Dec 17, 1998 (14:23) #43

sounds like it's time for an oil change... the viscosity is bound to kill ya!

~PT Thu, Dec 17, 1998 (19:48) #44

It probably would, if I still ate like that. I'm partial to eating like that, but I'm also partial to staying alive, so I seldom do anymore.

~KitchenManager Thu, Apr 1, 1999 (15:47) #45

anyone mind if I stretch out and take a nap?

~wolf Thu, Apr 1, 1999 (17:53) #46

i certainly don't! take as long as you need, since it's been so quiet!

~KitchenManager Thu, Apr 1, 1999 (20:34) #47

nudge me if I start snoring too loud

~SusanA Fri, Apr 2, 1999 (16:39) #48

Hi, I think I'm in the wrong place. Sorry

~wolf Fri, Apr 2, 1999 (18:29) #49

no, stay!

~KitchenManager Sat, Apr 3, 1999 (00:55) #50

oh, puh-lease come back! we can behave...really, we can!

~moulton Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (07:12) #51

A Boston Poet named Kort Lounged upon the Davenport Upon a Thyme He transmitted a Rhyme Which arrived in Austin with a wicked Snort

~wolf Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (07:55) #52

hey, i think he's got it!!

~KitchenManager Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (13:41) #53

it's possible...

~moulton Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (16:35) #54

Can I use here to get proper formating?

~moulton Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (16:36) #55

Ooh. It works. There. I closed it. :)

~moulton Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (16:40) #56

It's interesting to note that unbalanced HTML formatting tags stay in effect across posts. I used the <PRE> tag in 54 and closed it in 55. I imagine that would also apply to font and color changes, too. Dunno if that's a bug or a feature. :)

~KitchenManager Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (17:37) #57

depends on your intent...

~terry Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (18:22) #58

It's both, I guess. We do have the ability to allow or disallow particular tags.

~dawnis Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (18:27) #59

Tags? Did someone find my tags? Bless you now maybe I can rememer who I am.

~MarciaH Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (22:00) #60

I have just discovered the man of many talents is also a poet. I should have known all along!

~MarciaH Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (22:02) #61

But, I did not know that he snores till just now...

~KitchenManager Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (23:40) #62

depends on how tired I am...

~MarciaH Thu, Jul 15, 1999 (23:43) #63

*ooch* *ooch* is there room on this thing for me, too?

~KitchenManager Fri, Jul 16, 1999 (02:50) #64

sure!

~dawnis Mon, Jul 19, 1999 (02:42) #65

squasy moto....make room fer me too!

~moulton Mon, Jul 19, 1999 (10:15) #66

Moulton scootches over to make room.

~wolf Mon, Jul 19, 1999 (18:29) #67

don't mind my tail....

~MarciaH Mon, Jul 19, 1999 (20:29) #68

...'tis a good thing I am skinny...I think I am next onto the floor...wer? catch me if one more gets on, please!

~dawnis Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (02:41) #69

Dawnis gives Moulton a big hug! Let's all dance! You put your left foot in come on join in!

~wolf Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (13:06) #70

you put your left foot out....

~MarciaH Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (13:45) #71

It's Hokey Pokey time....!

~KitchenManager Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (16:03) #72

it's about time we finished breaking in your lounge, Wolf!!!

~KitchenManager Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (16:04) #73

(I wonder if any of them will make it to the screwed bidet...)

~MarciaH Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (16:08) #74

Bailing out right now!!!

~moulton Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (16:32) #75

Come join me, come join me, Come join me, in my dance!

~stacey Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (16:54) #76

well Barry... now that you've let your hair down... and my my my what LONG hair it is! no, stop it everyone. \Shirts stay ONE in the poetry corner (right Wolfie?) If you wanna take the clothes off go over to screwed... follow Marcia!

~MarciaH Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (17:22) #77

Marcia is going out rock hounding with hiking boots plus all sorts of unglamourous clothing on, but it will be interesting and you will learn something and with a little luck find something interesting to bring back. Too much indoor inactivity is getting to me. Anyone care to join? Hawaii has opals! Peridot-sand beaches...!

~KitchenManager Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (17:26) #78

but if you have to dance in screwed (naked or not), try and do so on Laughing Sky's Cloud, as it helps keep the dust off between her visits...

~stacey Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (17:30) #79

I wanna go with Marcia! (understand about the activity bit... I had to sneek in a lunch time hike today!)

~MarciaH Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (17:35) #80

Oh good!!! I'll bring the fruit to snack on while we hike and some other tasty things too. Fun hike today!!!

~wolf Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (20:09) #81

wait for me, i gotta get out!

~MarciaH Tue, Jul 20, 1999 (20:20) #82

Circling back for Wolfie! Any other takers? If not today - I do this a lot, so name your day and hike: volcano caldera? Jungle waterfalls? Remote beaches? Ancient Hawaiian sites? Snow skiing?

~dawnis Wed, Jul 21, 1999 (00:29) #83

I just got a full body massage...think I'll curl up here. (Contented grin on her face)

~moulton Wed, Jul 21, 1999 (07:53) #84

I'll have a Medium Massage, Over Easy. Hold the Eggplant.

~moonbeam Wed, Jul 21, 1999 (12:35) #85

* sitting quietly on a chair, munching an eggplant sandwich *

~moulton Wed, Jul 21, 1999 (19:59) #86

Harrumpty Dumpty sat on a chair Harrumpty Dumpty munched on a pear All the Springs's courses and all the Spring's ken Couldn't feed Harrumpty Dumpty an Eggplant again

~wolf Wed, Jul 21, 1999 (20:39) #87

who brought the chairs in?

~moulton Wed, Jul 21, 1999 (21:33) #88

The Chairman of the Bored?

~MarciaH Wed, Jul 21, 1999 (21:37) #89

Do we have to bring our own sandwiches or is this room catered? (Good one, Barry!)

~moulton Wed, Jul 21, 1999 (21:48) #90

I hear there is a surfeit of eggplant sandwiches.

~MarciaH Wed, Jul 21, 1999 (22:14) #91

I was hoping to avoid them - though I have never even seen one on offer...Are they good? (Then why is there a surfeit?!) *lol*

~moonbeam Thu, Jul 22, 1999 (00:43) #92

* taking her chair and leaving quietly *

~moulton Thu, Jul 22, 1999 (03:30) #93

Uh oh.

~dawnis Thu, Jul 22, 1999 (11:09) #94

(((((((Moonbeam))))))))))) Dang it, I went out and bought a couple of chairs, color coordinated with yours, so people could sit off in the corner and chat quietly. The mason's are on their way to add a fireplace......Plllllleeeeeeasse come back? Yeh once an egg plant plants its little pear shaped body in your life, there is always a surfeit...they are like rabbits they just keep multiplying. (giggle)

~wolf Thu, Jul 22, 1999 (20:47) #95

well, thanks for planting some chairs and eggplants in here... nan, come back!!

~MarciaH Thu, Jul 22, 1999 (21:02) #96

Please come back!!! We Neeeeeeeeeeeeed you!

~moonbeam Thu, Jul 22, 1999 (23:06) #97

OK, but only if I can sit on one end of the couch and have an extra pillow. ;) I'm sorry to be such a big baby this week. It's the shits here in Real Life. Good thing I like eggplant sandwiches...

~MarciaH Thu, Jul 22, 1999 (23:42) #98

Other that flouring and saute'ing them, what do you add to your eggplant sandwiches? Most curious! (here...allow me to fluff your extra pillows)

~dawnis Thu, Jul 22, 1999 (23:51) #99

Here is a footstool too. (Dawnis grins) I guess you didn't read my silly eggplant poem Marcia. We just kinda took off with it....I guess you could put anything you wanted to on it. (chuckle) Here, I have some bubble gum wanna try that?

~MarciaH Fri, Jul 23, 1999 (00:32) #100

Ok - but lets have some fresh mango first...just located some early ripened ones. Then the bubble gum...(hunting back through files for eggplant poem for inspiration..)
