The Race to Claim the Attic

well....


I see two kids running up the stairs elbowing each other in the ribs.

It took you that long to come up with this?

You're losing your edge. More drunken posting for you!

When I read the title to this thread and saw that you posted it, I was picturing you and jinx cleaning out the old attic, each with the idea that it would be your own little clubhouse. You would turn it into some kind of guy refuge with a beer refrigerator and place to play guitar and smoke weed, and jinx would have some sort of plan of her own that only she would know.

I didn't even think of a clone thread. Imagine my disappointment.

well, don't be disappointed. We already have claimed the attic as our fortress of solitude. I do indeed play guitar and have a mini frigde and microwave, my playstation, dvd collection, and grown up toys.

It's a joint conquest though.....there's a lot of fingernail painting stuff and what not that jinx doesnt want ripley getting into.

It's off limits to the kids. that's the key.

The front of out attic is finished and pretty clubhouse like already. We refer to it as the fortress of solitude (the kids aren't allowed up there, they got the living room in the coin toss...).
You forgot the microwave and TV but otherwise nailed it.

edit: Oh hey Jim...
