<p>i definitly blot w/ a napkin, we had these seminars this summer for our lab w/ free pizza, and you could go through like 5 napkins getting rid of the grease, but it ws free food so we still ate it</p>
<p>hhahaha phil is from texas, probably the only place where there are still 'debutantes'. btw, phil, have you heard of the 'daughters of the confederacy' debut-ball thing?</p>
<p>My cousin in KY was a debutante....but I've never heard of a male debutante (or beau, I guess), lol. Sometimes about 20 of the more blue-blooded bachelors will throw a society party, but no beaus, alas.</p>
<p>haha yeah i'm not elitist at ALL, i think i blotted my pizza one when it was reeeeaaaaaalllllyyyy greasy</p>
<p>and burping is definitely in order when drinking those liters of soda that come with pizza</p>
<p>is there something wrong w/ blotting pizza, i never realized it was rude, or unmannerly...</p>
<p>I thought beaus were more like escorts? I don't really know anything about cotillions, though, so don't quote me on it. <em>SARCASM AHEAD - only not really ;)</em> Blue-blooded bachelor society parties sound like a great opportunity to meet your future husband, Kat2, you've got to snag yourself an invite!! </p>
<p>And there's nothing wrong with blotting pizza, as far as I know. Peg, I blot and I'm not elitist about my pizza - it just saves calories, which means I can eat more chocolate later! :)</p>
<p>Randomgr - pun definitely intended, but I had typed it seriously first!!</p>
<p>oh i wasn't trying to connect the elitist sentence and pizza sentence that came out wrong. i was responding to i 4get what their name was earlier who asked if we were all elitist.</p>
<p>good strategy to get more chocolate in though</p>
<p>Yeah, the ceremony was Dec. 18, but I didn't go. It would have cost $400 of my money that I was definitely not willing just to be "presented to society." What kinda crap is that? I am in society.</p>
<p>And I've heard of DOC balls before, but they're not around here. That's more out in the country (yes, even more country than Waco). I kind of like many of the Texan/South's centuries-old traditions. The history will definitely be something I'll be sad to leave behind (especially ones involving my family and things we've done here since we first settled over a century-and-a-half ago).</p>
<p>Phil, you are just.... awesome. I have no other words for your intense (dare I use it twice in two adjacent sentences? Looks like I have no choice!) awesomeness.</p>
<p>Lol. Well thank you! You're a pretty cool cat yourself ;)</p>
<p>This is a reminder: chat tonight! In about 2 hours. room: Princeton09. where? AIM. be there!</p>
<p>that was a fun chat, i call for a repeat in the future.</p>
<p>Yeah, that was fun. My brain's still spinning, hehe. And you left early, so you missed all the good stuff :p</p>
<p>stupid ED acceptees, i hate u, ure done w/ all the waiting...</p>
<p>uh...hardly, hehe. see, once you get in, you still have to wait 8 months to actually go to school. So really at this point everyone's just waiting, but for different things.</p>
<p>lol, u get to do excited waititng tho, we have to do anxious waiting, im not sure which is worse, im sure now ill think its anxious but if ig et accpted all summer ill think the excited waiting is worse, lol</p>
<p>anxious waiting is so much worse! I don't like thinking "oh i might not get into college" <em>weep</em></p>
<p>i kno ill get into college, but im so afraid I wont get in anywhere I want to go and i spend the last four years of my almost adulthoo d(without quite so many responsibiilities) hating life....</p>
