The Mic is On: We're Talking about Gifts

November 27, 2007 by Liz

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

The Mic Is On

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

We’re Already Thinking about Them…

We might talk about:

  • Gifts we gave
  • Gifts we got
  • Gifts we had to take back
  • Gifts we wish we never got
  • Gifts we re-gifted
Gift

And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)

Oh, and bring links about gifts to share!

That’s Right We’re Talking Turkeys and Millionaires

We might talk about:

  • people we’ve met and read about
  • people we may have dated
  • times that we, ourselves, have acted like either turkeys or millionaires
  • there’s which one our family thinks we’re most likely to be?
  • and then, of course what flavor of Klondike Bars we’ll be having

That’s Right the Famous Vlogger, Nick Schmidt, Is Bartending. C’mon In

Talk about what we always do:

  • pick Nick’s brain about video
  • favorite barroom pasttimes, games, and conversations
  • what we’ve been doing
  • what flavor of Klondike Bars we’ll be having
  • start a pool about what time Liz actually might show up . . .
