Good morning, threadies - TGIF!

I'm pretty sure she's just smelling the coffee, but I hope she doesn't fall nose first into any of the cups...

Um, weren't we just on the next page?

Edit: Oh, I am again. I think we just backtracked a few post numbers though.


Oh and apart from the post deleting issue: people changing or deleting their signatures would affect the page length, too. I deleted my sigs yesterday, so that might have been a contributing factor...

I finally talked (or IM'd) with my Fiancee in Seattle!!

Since last Saturday I have been a nervous wreck. I didnt hear from her till she text messaged me saying "I'm definitely staying".

And my heart sank. DEEP. I'm in Pennsylvania, & she decides to stay in Seattle!!

But she never said if I was to be included in the picture. After 7 years with her, I realized I might be out of the picture.

SO- for the past few days I've been worrying myself sick. Its kinda tough to drive to a client's location in the rain, which reminds you of Seattle, and thinking of the woman you love without crying. I found one of her "hidden" MySpace blogs where she basically said she'd be better off without me & could find better. So yea, I was reeeeeeally upset. Upset as in not eating or sleeping & worrying the whole time.

Finally I got to talk to her. And YES!!!! I AM INCLUDED!!!! YAY!!!!

I can finally eat!!! :)

It wouldnt be till January or Febuary till I got my bills paid down enough to borrow the money to move.

I'd be renting the Uhaul & packing up her stuff & my stuff & making the drive there. All I plan to take are: Clothes, small furniture, books, CDs, knick-knacks, and computers among a few other small things.

We've agreed to give her ferret to my sister if she wants it. I'll miss the ferret. And we'll have the kitten flown in just because I'm allergic to cats.

Now I can sleep & eat and not drive around worrying & crying. Yea, sad, ain't I?? :o

BTW- When I IM'd her, I said I have a BIG question to ask. I also told her to "view my webcam" and held up a sign asking: Will you marry me???

She said "Yes"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
( and I cried like a lil' girl) :o

The only conditions we both agreed on: marriage has to wait till we're both working. She's looking for a job now & a place to live.

The toughest thing for me is going to be leaving friends & family & my niece & nephew behind. She had no problem with leaving. Her family could care less (her mother still wishes her dead), her siblings dont want bothered, and her friends pretty much ignore her.

I'll be leaving a steady job and going into a financial crunch for some time. But for her.... I'd do ANYTHING. When I realized she wasnt coming back, and my whole world went "Kaplooie", I realized... Yea... I want to marry this girl. No one else has done this to me. No other GF has made me feel this way.

Besides... how many HAWT (as in Super Model hawt) 5'10" 120lb D-Cup Bi 23 yr olds will date a 39 yr old who's only 5'1"??? ;)

When you have a good thing... you do what ever it takes to keep it.

SO!!! Looks like sometime next year, I'm moving to the Seattle area. BEWARE!!!! :D

Congrats!!!!

This depresses me. I could have been on-line, there wasn't keeping me from being on line. But I wasn't. So I, yet again, missed an unplanned party.

'course if it was mentioned in thread I'd probably not be reading thread, so . . . I'll continue missing parties, then.

It wasn't really a party...3 of us at the hangout were just testing out weapons that Craz was giving us. I thought it ended up looking mega-messy so I took a snap before it all disappeared again.

Oh, and I had to restore the floor after someone deleted it *again*

I don't think sigs really make a difference. Page length is based on number of posts, not the sig lengths. Just means more scrolling if everyone has massive sigs.

Speaking of which, I need to find something new for mine...it needs an update.

-Mystery solved re "my" Skybox... I uhm... deleted it apparently- it did not even turn up in Steely's Lost & Found, (He should be more careful who gives permissions to... :o ) but he kindly replaced it for me and redecorated :D- back in business.

We like to get our end-of-summer celebrations done before the first two feet of snow arrive.
I always get the drumstick.

Yep, I've had to turn signatures off. I only have so much time to browse through here while at work and sorting messages from signatures can be major chore if you're trying to do it quickly.

Tod69 - While I never had a negative opinion of you, reading what you wrote made my opinion of you as a person go way, way up. I've known too many other women who've been through what she's been through, an I hope she can now have a happier life.
