Is it as much fun when the boards don't seize up? [In reply to] Can't Post

I think so.

It's been great seeing some long absentees today (Cactus Wren, barahliofrohan) even before Fiesta started.

A Diet Coke, please, Altaira.

My best to all! And thanks to Altaira and the other staff for their hard work.

Great news! [In reply to] Can't Post

I'm glad to hear about the new job -- and I bet a new cushion won't be too hard to come by.

Glad you stopped by!

Do we walk in legends or on the green earth in the daylight?

A man may do both. For not we but those who come after will make the legends of our time. The green earth, say you? That is a mighty matter of legend, though you tread it under the light of day!"

We can't forget the Bailey's, now can we? ;-) [In reply to] Can't Post

After all, we ARE civilized women. LaughLaugh

We saved a comfy chair by the fire for you, Mar. Complete with good looking Elves to fetch blankets (and more Bailey's, of course). Wink

*hugs* and have a great weekend, dear! Smile

*flying tackle hug* [In reply to] Can't Post

Glad to hear things are going well, EoPW! ;o)

Just to make you feel better, there are also skunks *all over the freakin' place* here! Something happened to one so close to the house that my girls thought the dogs had gotten into it with one (*really* strong smell). I see one hit on the road every day when I go to work.

Feel better now?

Cool, Hengist. Congrats!! [In reply to] Can't Post

What wonderful news! I hope there will be more job security with this one. Is there a good fencing organization there? (I'd imagine so, if you're looking forward to it).

*wheels out biggest Hengist mug we have and props tap open*

Cheers and congrats again, my friend! Smile

It definitely sounds like a well-cushioned treatment is in order. ouch!

I'm so glad you've found something you enjoy and feel safe with. Medical coverage is a must nowadays!

*pours Diet Coke and sends drinks to the other boards* [In reply to] Can't Post

Yes, it's amazing when the boards don't seize up! In a very, very nice way, Lol! Not as many oldbies have shown up as I'd hoped yet. Maybe it's not the same to have a "Homecoming" when everything's new. The day is still young though! *goes searching for more oldies but goodies*

Have a great weekend, N.E.!! Smile

And I am *so* glad it finally here - work has been insane, and i'm looking forward to a couple of days with not a lot to do.

I'll have a Strongbow and send good wishes to everyone for a great weekend. Cheers!

I'm really glad they can all make it. And I'm SO excited for you to have lost so much weight! Congratulations! I don't mind the process if there's headway; but those stagnant times are hard to swallow sometimes ;)

It's so great to see you! Have a GREAT holiday; and plan on catching the flue Christmas Eve *kaff, winkie-wink*

Happy weekend, deej! [In reply to] Can't Post

Sorry to hear your week has been insane. Mine has too, but I made sure this a.m. was free for Fiesta. I know I'll pay for it later, lol, but what the heck!

Have a wonderful, relaxing weekend! Smile

AE!! So good to see you! [In reply to] Can't Post

I hope all is going well. I'm guessing your little one isn't so little any more.

I actually had my hair cut last week. I lost all the curls with the cut, but at least I have hair.

Don't let so much time go between visits.

Woo Hoo! Welcome back to me! [In reply to] Can't Post

After finally getting wireless DSL here in the sticks where I live, what should inevitably happen? Yes, technodoofus that I am, I killed our computer. Dead. I don't even know what I did wrong. But thanks to some local computer smarties who only charged an arm and not a leg, here I am! *crosses fingers*

So how about a nice big glass of iced tea in celebration of new technology and our balmy Texas weather (80's today!).
