The Embrace
Can I hug you?
Mmmmm. Hugging sure warms the heart, doesn’t it?
I’m going to continue to hug you. Don’t try to pull away until it’s over.
Yesssssssssssss. Friendship.
Oooh, this hug tickles, doesn’t it? Do you feel that tickle on your belly?
Let’s pause for a moment while I unbutton my shirt.
No? Not really your thing? I see.
Why are you leaving? Didn’t you enjoy our hug? Was it the shirt thing? I probably should explain - I took my shirt off for medical reasons. I have MS.
Please stop! Okay, I admit it, I don’t have multiple sclerosis. I just wanted you to feel sorry for me and hug me with my shirt unbuttoned.
No, don’t walk away! I long for your embrace!
My name is Peter, by the way! Will you be riding this bus tomorrow?

Man does this bring back some uncomfortable memories of the first time I ever met you. That was awkward.
You tickled me, Thom.
Peter, Thom idealizes you. No wonder he has a problem meeting women if this is how you taught him to greet people.
My sister has MS, Peter. I didn’t find that reference funny at all….
…I found it HILARIOUS.
Steve… you have a sense of humor and therefore are no longer welcome in the blog-o-sphere…
Except at Peter’s site and the ones he is linked to.
