If you’re dithering over whether or not to buy that felt mustache you’ve been eyeing, I highly recommend whipping out the Mastercard.

Villians, cads, and scoundrels.  

I had a small, informal housewarming party last week. Small because if I put on a full-blown bash, guests would have to come in shifts. Informal because I invited my friends over for dinner and told them to bring their own dinner. I’m classy like that.

I’ve since been pondering how to do my mustachioed housewarming justice. (And my lovely mustachioed compadres, who pulled out the dinner and the merriment in fine style.) Suffice it to say there was much hyena-like braying (mostly from me), goat cheese torte (and shrimp, and cherry crumble) scarfing, champagne guzzling, tale-telling, and mustache melodrama.

My new apartment has been thoroughly warmed. You can tell by the fine film of white wine still coating the floor.

    Oh, that looks like a whole lot of fun.

    I think my life would be vastly improved by a felt mustache

    I was going to say — um, I know it wasn’t quiiiiite as good as the last one I made, but surely it didn’t taste FISHY?

    I haven’t been this physically attracted to so many women since, well, NEVER!
    I’m no longer dithering. I’ve whipped it out, baby, my credit card, that is, so that I, too, can be just as H A W T and sexy as you mustachioed divas!

    Is a house ever really a home if it doesn’t have a fine coating of white wine on the floor?

    I would have crashed the party, were I not a five-hour flight(and a whole COUNTRY) away.

    OMSH visitor here. I love all the the funny felt mustache shots! I had a small apartment along time ago in a galaxy far far away!
