topgunn,
the weekend dhv story i've been using lately is one that really happened, but here it is:
"i spent most of the weekend out with friends. Friday night i went out for my friend Christine's b-day. it was a lot of fun. but there was this big fight at the end of the night and i had to jump in it. I hate fighting but i had no choice.
basically, these three guys were being complete jerks and the one guy started a fight with another guy that is a regular at this bar. so anyway, all the bouncers and staff react pretty quick and it gets broken up. so as the three jerks are walking away, they suddenly run back, jump over a picnic table, (we were all outside on the deck) flys throught the air and lands on one of the bartenders. this bartender was a very small guy and these jerks were pretty big.
so this happened right in front of me, and all three jerks were beating this guy down. so i jumped in to help him. i pulled two guys off and the crowd grabbed them and held them back....then the third guy, the instigator, of the whole thing, ripped my shirt and it took about 5 of us to pull him away....
then of course the cops came like 20 minutes later. it was crazy......so that was friday. lol
then saturday, i went to this end of summer house party at a friends house. it was pretty fun.
so yeah, that was my weekend. lots of excitement.

If you go for a close and get ignored, i wait about 3-4 days then come back with this (i used this word for word the other day, and her response came in less than a day and had apologies and her phone number

)
"I feel like your ignoring me. this is not the way to maintain a health relationship ;-). i'm gonna have to break up with you. so, i'm gonna need all of my cd's back. and i don't know what we are going to do about "Bacardi" (the puppy i bought you for your birthday last year). I've grown attached to the little guy. maybe we can work out some sort of joint custody arrangement.
i should have known this was going to happen. i mean you are way to high maintanence for me anyway. i don't know how your last boyfriend put up with it.
lol, oh i crack myself up sometimes....haha. anyway, i know you haven't found someone more fun to talk to, so hit me back.

hope this helps.
