What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

@Fran - I haven't been drinking anything. I've been reading Dostoyevsky's novel The Idiot (seriously). So you have Russia and an Idiot and I suppose the thing just went from there. Besides I do not have one of those Peruvian turkey hats but I DO have a Russian military hat. The hard part was finding that old hoodie sweat jacket I used when I created my member picture way back in 2011.

@Graverobber - *Bows* ... ThankYou-ThankYou-ThankYou ... Actually I DO have a bottle of vodka given to me by a real Russian - a scientist I work with - but it has never been opened. It's more of a keepsake. It comes all the way from Russia.

Just doing what I can to make this a memorable party !

@Graverobber - Don't play too loudly I think everyone has fallen asleep (ASIDE: Forsooth! Methinks someone hath spiked the punch!) ... that, or I scared them all away with that close-up. Well, I never claimed to be handsome. Like Rodney Dangerfield, the doctor took one look at me when I was born and slapped my mother.

Ooo...definitely intense music. I might have to go the banana band side for a little pick-me-up after listening to this band ;)

Good thing we have a variety of music at this party!

Here. This one should mellow it out a bit. Sit back, relax, and listen to the musical stylings of this emote ;)

I HAD TO CLIMB BACK IN THROUGH A WINDOW ..... the Member Of The Month party bouncers said Boris didn't have an invitation (I had forgotten to take off my 'Boris' hat i.e. previous page).

Well, I am finally back inside and the party is still hopping. HOOOOOoooOOOoooRAY!

@Graverobber - Boris told me that your rock band, The Emoticon Four, is all the rage in Russia at the moment.

@joanofarc2015 - I am so HaPpY that you are enjoying the party. As far as my "wit and frank manner" is concerned - that is the result of my mother being frightened by a clown when she was carrying me.
