/me waves Good Morning to the Threadies. Thanks to all who attended the pool party. It was really fun to see you all, and we missed those who didn't make it.  I had a really busy RL weekend (but fun), so the party was about the extent of my SL for the weekend. @Mari, All my best wishes for your mom's recovery, I'm glad she caught it early. *big hugss to you* Thanks for all the pics everyone, they are wonderful as usual. and now, I've put off my "cash Monday" as long as possible, I guess I better get to work!  (Monday is the day I plan the cash for the week for all the businesses... need i say things are tight this year?)

From: Rioko Bamaisin I swear too much to RP a kid in SL. I'd be like the bad seed on the block that no one's parents would want their kids near.  But through your "eyes" Mari, it seems like a blast. Gad you enjoyed. /me makes note of which store sold that "soap in mouth" product From: Allegria Kanto @Mari, All my best wishes for your mom's recovery, I'm glad she caught it early. *big hugss to you* Thank you an all who sent their best wishes.

From: Brenda Connolly But we'd give anything to get to hang out with you.  I started dying my hair when I was like 14 and I'll never forget my then best friend's parents told her to stop hanging out with me cause I was bad news for dying my hair...  But yet her sister was a crack whore. I guess that was okay with them.

I'm NOT posting this because I am a softy or a romantic. I am simply trying to get to 1000 posts...
LONDON (AFP) – A British man and his Spanish former sweetheart have finally married 16 years after they drifted apart, reunited by a love letter lost behind a fireplace for over a decade, reports said on Monday.
Steve Smith and Carmen Ruiz-Perez, both now 42, fell in love 17 years ago when she was a foreign exchange student in Brixham, southwest England, and got engaged after only a year together.
But their relationship ended after she moved France to run a shop in Paris.
A few years later, in a bid to rekindle their love, Smith sent a letter to her mother's home in Spain. It was placed on the mantelpiece, but slipped down behind the fireplace and was lost for over a decade.
The missing missive was only found when builders removed the fireplace during renovation work.
"When I got the letter I didn't phone Steve right away because I was so nervous," Ruiz-Perez told the Herald Express local newspaper.
"I nearly didn't phone him at all. I kept picking up the phone then putting it down again.
"But I knew I had to make the call."
When they were reunited, it was as if time had stood still, said Smith, a factory supervisor.
"When we met again it was like a film. We ran across the airport into each other's arms. We met up and fell in love all over again. Within 30 seconds of setting eyes on each other we were kissing.
"I'm just glad the letter did eventually end up where it was supposed to be," he said, after the couple married last Friday.

. Same here,seriously. I got to the store and was so hot, I couldn't even remember what I wanted to buy. Had to stop and think for a bit. I've been going through this walking phase since my truck is a gas guzzler. So I made a deal with myself,if the place is less than a mile away from me.I walk. Well I didn't take into account that it is so freaking hot outside right now. So I think I will rethink that deal.

Eli's Boss: He has spent an unacceptable ammount of time posting on the forums. In the opinion of this VP, Eli is not taking his job seriously. Now I've spent my morning examining his records. If Eli thinks that he can just coast through this month and still get his bonus, he is sorely mistaken.
Eli's Mom: This is all news to me
Eli's Boss: It usually is. So far since 2007 he has been posted on the forums nine hundred and nintey-nine times.
Eli's Mom: Nine hundred and nintey-nine times?
Eli's Boss: Nine hundred and nintey-nine times.
Eli's Mom: I don't remember him posting nine hundred and nintey-nine times.
Eli's Boss: Wake up and smell the coffee, Mrs. Schlegal. It's a fool's paradise. He is just leading you down the primrose path.
Eli's Mom: I can't believe it.
Eli's Boss: I've got it right here in front of me. He has posted nine-hundred and...
[His computer screen begins counting down from nine-hundred to two-hundred. Eli is in his office looking at the same screen]
