Silly String Strangness

Whew! What a night! At about 12:45, just as I realize I wanted to get into bed 45 minutes ago, my roommate Richard realizes that our suitemate Ian is asleep on our apartment's couch, whilst he was reading his homework. Richard grabs his silly string (he had 4 (four!!!) cans in his drawer) and rushes out to the couch, thusly shouting "OMG Ian!!!" and spraying him. He then runs back to our room, shuts the door and locks it (so Ian can't come in and kill him (and possibly me?)).

 

Well, I've made myself clear that I have no hand in this.

 

So for the next hour we're in our room, wondering what evil things Ian has come up with to do to Richard/us. Once, Richard opened the door slightly, only to have something come hurtling at him/it (it was too fast and dark out we didn't know what, plus, Ian is half-Japanese so he's a ninja) and he shuts the door again. All the while I'm talking with Nukaya over AIM and I end up telling her what happened and that I might just creep off to a corner away from the door so that once Richard does open it I'm far away from Ian's wrath.

 

Worst part is, Nukaya asked "Are you still alive" just as Ian toyed with the circuit breaker, shutting off power to my bedroom and rendering me helpless in replying to her.

 

So eventually I'm able to sneak around Richard and open the door and hide behind it (remember, it's dark now except for flashlights) while Ian comes hurtling through and at Richard, who is dual spraying Ian with silly string. (Leading up to this we've played the Mission: Impossible theme (per Nukaya's suggestion), a song with the words "Why can't we be friends" in it, and Star Wars' Duel of the Fates.)

 

All is resolved, but I am now going to bed 2.5 hours later than anticipated. And I was all adrenalin high from just fearing for whatever was going to happen next.
