I have decided I am both a bad guest and a bad host.
I am a bad guest because I refuse to keep people informed of my departure and arrival times, I prefer to ransack your home being self sufficient rather than being taken care of, I leave dirty dishes everywhere, and show up late then leave early with no host appreciation or parting gift, and I do my best to piss you off so our goodbye goes faster. (I hate goodbyes. They’re acknowledgements of separation that is generally a fact of life anyway, so why acknowledge again that you won’t be in each other’s presence as you most of the time aren’t anyway? Meh.)
I am a bad host because I don’t like having anyone over to my home except: me, Dawg, Allie, Ripley, and Georgia. And the new kitty when we get him eventually.
I have photos of the weekend with Rachel and Robin but haven’t had time to get them off the camera so I won’t recap BabeCon until then. :)
Ps – Transformers was very entertaining to me but I’m pretty sure I have a sunburn on my neck from it…

You are a great houseguest – You sit through traffic, you help straighten up, you buy me cereal (yeah, you forgot your cereal so I will be eating it) you play drunk games, you put your laundry in the laundry room and you leave alcohol behind.
as for a host – i don’t know – but I am sure you are awesome at that as well -

Ditto. Besides – Ripley loves me, so your notion of you being a shitty host totally goes out of the window. :)

I think you are a great host. You hide the fact that you don’t like having people over really well, you buy any kind of food a person could possibly want and you don’t make your guests run all over the place when they just want to see you. XO, Mom

A lack of hospitality gains a sympathy point from me.
Liking that movie, though, gains a death stare.

Wow – I’m going to have to agree with your mom on this one. I thought you were a GREAT host. Jared and I felt really, really welcome in your home.

Mom and Britt: There are always exceptions to rules. *blush*

(and Robin too)

The rule in my house is the first time you’re here, I’ll get you stuff. The second time you’re here, you’re practically family and can get it your own damn self.

I find it hard to believe you’d be a bad anything, so I will listen to your mom, Robin and Britt.
:D

Just as long as you smile when I randomly show up at your door someday to visit as a surprise, I don’t care. :D
