Beach party! (No, seriously.)

Ladies and gentlemen, boys, girls, and anybody who mutated outside the usual genders and didn't tell me . . .

Thanks to a generous donation from our esteemed groundskeeper Mr. Cain Marko . . .

The entertainment firm of Madrox, Madrox, Madrox, Madrox, Madrox et al presents, in a limited engagement . . .

Boiler Beach! Bringing a little piece of summer home to you, the overstressed mutant suffering from the holiday blues! Located a short convenient walk downstairs in the old boiler room! Take a beach vacation without leaving the house! Sun! Sand! . . . No surf, though, sorry, Alex, I couldn't figure out how to build a wave pool anywhere except the ballroom or the Danger Room, and I figured people would get a little annoyed if I put one either place. :)

Four out of five Jamie Madroxes give it two thumbs up! Enjoy Boiler Beach today!

Good, because sun and sand and water is absolutly in the plan for Doug when he returns. He sounds very very stressed, which means Doug is being Doug. Too much computer, not enough food. :) Nathan is watching out for him, but you know how Doug is when he is being the scary computer person.

So four out of four Jamies agrees now?

Yeah, I know how he gets. And being holed up in Sooper Sekrit Mission Destination under a vow of silence can't be helping. Hopefully Nathan's keeping a good close eye on him. I did just get an e-mail from him, though, so either he's got uncanny timing or he can at least sporadically read the journals.

Four out of four, yeah, but the fifth one is on the letterhead so he has to be counted. :)

Nathan said in email that he would make sure Doug ate. Which is good because I do not want to be able to count Doug's ribs.

This is -Doug-. I imagine he's found some way to read the journals safely without telling anyone or letting them know.

Are those sunlamps the kind that will make you sunburn? Because while I could use the sun, and have every intention of going down there once I find summer clothes, I have -red hair-. I sunburn in under five minutes.

Getting back from breakfast to see the Human Skeleton walk out of the bathroom in a towel is no treat either, let me tell you. Nathan better be giving him seconds.

And good point. And hey, he can't comment without blowing his cover, so we could talk about him behind his back. :)

Not entirely sure about the sunburn thing, but I'd think since they're supposed to be just like actual sunlight then the answer is "yes." I sunscreened Kitty yesterday just to be sure (well, not just to be sure, but you know. ;)) And I actually did remember to bring a camera to catch her expression when I opened the door and handed her her bikini. Scrapbook moment, that.

I am fairly sure Doug cannot possibly lose -that- much weight in a week. He still has most of the muscle from Asgard to fall back on.

Does he -really- walk around in just a towel? Sometimes I wonder what happened to shy Doug Ramsey who used to blush all the time and was terribly embarassed about those leather pants.

I think sunscreen is probably a very good idea then. Doubly so for Doug when he gets back as he has probably not seen the sun at all this week.

Yeah, I was exaggerating a little. Any cracks I may or may not have made in the past about being able to study for anatomy finals were also exaggeration. :)

I'd say "one too many nights in an Asgardian meadhall," to your question there, but hey, depending on your perspective it was probably just enough. ;) And he doesn't so much "walk around" in the towel as "take howevermany steps it is between the bathroom and his dresser."

Sunscreen is an amazing invention. And skin cancer is bad, I think we can all agree.

I think I need more sleep again because I have the giggles.

Definitly not one too many. Though, only one of those was significant. Generally it is really is only one significant night that makes that difference.

-smiles contentedly at you-

My laptop and my bikini and I are all down here and where are you? Any of you? Surely you don't want me to study the evening away...

And I know I already told you this in person, but I just want it to be said, on the record and in writing, that I have the best, most creative, cleverest boyfriend in the world, and all of the other girl's are jealous that I got you first.

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

You know, you're very right, I don't want you to study the evening away. I'll be right down.

And I still don't believe you about all the other girls, but you did get me first, so it doesn't really matter if they're jealous or not. :)
