Oh! You're that Tom!

My reputation precedes me...

It's even more terrifying when people say it to me.

Now that's fair.

Of course, it's one of those "beating your wife" problems. What do you say? No, I'm not *that* Tom? I'm the other Tom? Oh wait. Um. Wait... who am I?

Are you sure it's your reputation?

It could be your pants.

[bluegargantua]

It might, in fact, entirely be my pants.

vampyrusgirl was bummed she missed your sloth conversation at the party on Saturday. She wanted me to extend an invite to go to Stone Zoo and visit their sloth momma and baby sometime.

Considering the first thing I remember being told about you was your fabulous kissing abilities, it's probably not such a bad reputation as all that!

A woman said that to me at a holiday party, what, 13 years ago. (Well, she said “Sben” rather than “Tom”.) I was naturally alarmed. We have now been married for eight years and counting.

That sounds AWESOME! And, of course it's an extended visit...they're sloths. I'd love to go see them.
