Thirsty Thursday
Pull up a chair and pop open a Pacifico. It's time for Thirsty Thursday. Join us if you want, invite a friend, and/or come back next week when we'll have a new Special. Today’s theme…Knowing Me, Knowing You (hear ABBA on this one).
1. When is the other person’s birthday? (no need to put the year, ahem)
Melanie: Kelly’s birthday is August 16th
Kelly: You are correct, Miss.
Kelly: Since Melanie got mine right I’m sorely tempted to look hers up. Mel are you sure you didn’t cheat on this one! OK, I’ll be honest and say October 17?
Melanie: Okay, wait. We weren’t allowed to look it up?? Of course I used my calendar for yours! I knew it was in August, but not the date. You, on the other hand, are impressive, being only four days off, working strictly from memory—it’s Oct. 21.
2. What is the other person’s favorite color?
Melanie: Wow. I feel like I should know this, but I’m not sure I even know my own favorite color. I’m going to go with my first instinct and say that blue is her favorite color, but it could be something in the orange family too, or maybe I’m just thinking that because she’s just gotten an apricot skirt to wear with her orange flats to a party. Good luck figuring out my color, Kelly!
Kelly: It’s red, though my husband always claims I’m lying about that.
Kelly: I am going to guess that Melanie’s favorite color is green. But maybe that is just because it’s what she painted her bathroom. Actually, now that I think about it, she would look really nice in green. So Melanie, since you aren’t sure what your favorite color is why don’t you just go with green.
Melanie: That’s quite good. It think chartreuse probably is my current favorite, although I’ve gone through red and orange phases in recent years.
3. What was the name of the other person’s first pet? (A certain conversation in Palm Springs should help with this…)
Melanie: I generally remember the conversation with our erstwhile admirer at the outdoor Hilton bar, but I can’t remember the pet’s name to save my life. I think it might have been something that could be a double entendre of some sort, but I plead ignorance on this one.
Kelly: The pet’s name is Samantha. But the conversation was with our legal admirers, AKA our husbands, over poker. The double entendre probably comes because we were talking about that game: What is Your Porn Star Name. The one where you put your first pet with the first street you lived on.
Kelly: Having said all of that, I can’t remember Melanie’s pet’s name either, but I do remember ROTFLMAO at her answer. I think I’ll blame the Vicodin (from my accident)/wine combo.
Melanie: It was Buffy. And the first street was Buttermere. So: Buffy Buttermere.
