* And Would I Mind Awfully?

Today’s tale includes badgers, Max and time travel. For Nicky.

Nicky and Mike over at We Work For Cheese are running a writing challenge throughout February.

I’m fond of Nicky, but her heart and other interesting parts belong to Ziva.

And dammit, they refuse to invite me over.




When pizza is delivered, my heart always races.

    Hari Om Roth - and can't help thinking you've been "had" on all accounts here!

    Love your (literary) invention!

      Hey Yamini! Hari Om? Are you uttering the Ineffable Eternal Vibration of Sweetness and Beauty? Cool. And yes, those guys are a handful, I can tell you. Indigo

      Hari Om is the greeting of universality "the God in you is the God in me", so you're on the right vibration! And it has just dawned on me that I have incorrectly addressed you with surname, for which I apologise. Blame fifies female "menopolyximenia"... amends is that you're in the top5 blog roll at My Take!... or would you rather have my veggie pizza recipe?

      Hey Yamini! I answer to most things, but Roth will do just fine ;) I feel no need to blame anything; large, complicated and Latin or not. And yes please, but nothing with onion please! Indigo x

    Oh yum, I can practically smell the pizza. Delicious... Wonderful writing once again, Indigo, so sorry you can't have any pizza yourself. ;)

      Hey Ziva! Yes, dieting is hell. But *smells* "Aaaah! I love the smell of jalapeños in the morning!" You'd have loved it, Z! Please come visit! Indigo x

    Did someone say pizza for breakfast? I'll be right over. Well, maybe not right over.

    Thank you for including badgers, Max and time travel for me. But that's not going to win you an invitation. If Ziva and I invite you, then we'll have to invite everyone. It just wouldn't be fair otherwise. How about we just let you have a slice of pizza instead? :-)

      Hey Nicky! Somehow, you still manage to make that slice of pizza sound like forbidden fruit. Indigo x

    Excellent exchange with someone with a cardboard personality. And I must say a very generous act, considering you weren't going to be partaking yourself. Such agony, I feel your pain.

    No pizza for you? Couldn't you just time travel to the future where you're at your desired weight and have a piece then travel back?

    Whatever...

    You are getting me EVERY SINGLE TIME with that! I never expect it!!!!

    When I read Chili on the pizza... I am picturing chili... like someone ladling chili on a pizza... and thought, "wah?!"

    Now, in all honesty, I am craving pizza.

      Hey Katherine! D'you know, it's almost like you believe craving pizza is a bad thing. You'll have to give me a while to get my head round that concept, I'm sorry... Nope, now I've had time to think. I'm not with you at all. Oh, the strange thoughts of foreigners... Indigo x

      Hey Alistair! You are, of course, correct. Tho I'm reminded of that scene in ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS:

      "Inside me, there's a thin person trying to get out!"
      "Just the one, dear?"

      But thank you Sir, you flatter me. Indigo x

    Pizza is by far my favorite food, so I'm right there with you, Indigo. By the way, do British people ever actually say "dude" without a sense of irony?

      Hey KZ! You're a fine fellow! I favour the meaty end of the pizza spectrum, but I'll pop by for one sometime, whatever your preference. And no, the words just doesn't get used over here. Well, not by ME anyway. Indigo

    How do you do it, man? I cannot bear to be around pizza and not eat it. I MUST have it! It's the same way with potato chips. I can't have them in the house because I devour them in one sitting. HMMMM.... perhaps that's something I should address when it's time for the "compulsively" prompt.
