Happy May 1st everyone! I was checking my e-mail while listening to the Buffy soundtrack, and it made me miss my dear NBers. I thought I'd stop in and say hi. No pouts from me today. It's too beautiful here today. I even took Ryan to the park this morning. We walked the mile and a half around the lake. Well, actually, I walked the mile and a half around the lake. He walked about half the way and then wanted me to carry him the rest of the way. I don't mind adding a little weight to my workout...but 40 pounds!?! I know, \"You knew the job was dangerous when you took it, Fred.\" Superchicken fans out there? Anyone? Anyone? Gee, I feel old! :laugh:
Happy upcoming birthday, Ramones! I hope yours is much, much better than mine was!
Hey Seven! Thanks for hosting this month!

Rainy, chilly and thunderstorms here. I am sitting here looking at my beautiful flowerbeds....watching the weeds grow with this rain:angry: I am so gonna put on my rubber boots, my google nose mask thingie, my raincoat and get out the 'big' weed spraying tank and attacking those fricking weeds tomorrow!! I am a woman obsessed and possessed about getting rid of the damn things!!! Weed Annihilator Myth to the rescue!!!! **cues Superman theme song**

:blink: Now that is something you don't see everyday... poor weeds. They only want to live. And eat your soul at night while you sleep. ;)

OMG! Val! It has been so long since I've seen your face, heard your voice, whtaever. I think, actually, it's been about 4 years... as we have kids who are just about the same age now. Eeek!
Anyway, not to just say hi to you, but also to Myth and Otts. I am going to put some effort into hanging out at the hellmouth more often.
I finally broke down and bought Season 1 of Angel, have made my Buffy series complete, and have been thinking about the NB threat a lot.
See you all soon again!
PS Pardon my randomness. It's 92 in my classroom and I can't take it anymore.

NAT!!!! *Val bounds across NB, takes a flying leap, and Tigger tackles her dear old friend*
How have you been? I've missed you! It's so wonderful to see old friends again!
Everything is good here. I'm currently mired in plans for Ryan's 4th birthday...Thomas the Train theme, of course. I'm also planning a Brownie troop BBQ for later this month as well. Gee, what an exciting suburban mom life I do lead. Did everyone get the sarcasm? I worked really hard on that sarcasm.
Myth - I can understand how you feel about those pesky weeds. I was out in my flowerbeds not too long ago with a hoe. That was hoe...H-O-E, for those of you with a sophmoric sense of humor...wait, isn't that all NBers? ;)
Oz - Happy upcoming birthday!

NATTTT!!!! Wow, long time no see! :)
Everything's good here... Fiatlux finally moved in with me two weeks ago, we've been dating for three years now and still very much in love...
And Nora can't have her
Hiya Val!! I forgot, how are you numerous hubbies doing? ;)

Otts - I'm down to only H1 now. Would you believe that bum of an H2 of mine actually got married last summer. Seriously, I'm very happy for him. I adore his wife. I was a bridesmaid, H1 was a groomsman, and Elizabeth was the flower girl. How much more blessing could I bestow on their union?
By the way, did Fiat tell you I threatened you with bodily harm if you don't treat her right? :P

Hokey-dokey, here it is the 3rd of the month already and I juts now figured out why the title of this thread is phrased as a question.

Well....interesting to see more new things happening here at HMC. Does Matt's announcement mean this board dies or that we continue on our own?
Hello Nat and Otts:) Eventually everyone comes back. Why? Because we are wonderful:P Even Nora:whistle:
Much sunshine to be had here but still a bit chilly...which I love. I have a weekend of painting a swimming pool with my kids and helping hubby clean out his garage. He's a pat rat pig:S I've been in a weed killing fury and it will continue because of the 3 acres. I pretty much attack the weeds and leave everything else as natural and 'green' as possible.
Whoa...SPIDERMAN 3 does not have great reviews at all:(
EMums sends her love and may get over to Selz's board next week. Edaddy is leaving today for 2 weeks in England so she will have some free time.
BTL....I saw some more nasty weeks!!
Otts - where the heck are you in Canada? Is there a chance of meeting up with you and Fiat in Windsor??? Ramones will be in Michigan sometime this summer and maybe we can have a meeting....and with Ramones that means booze. We will have to chaperone her:whistle: :lol:

Hey guys. Sorry for the MIA. Just a quick flyby. I will be gone for the next week or so. Meredith my friend here has passed from her cancer this week. We are helping with the arrangements and child care of her 4 kids. Keep her family in your thoughts. Miss you.
Otts: glad to see fiat is settled and happy. hug the woman for me.

This site will not go away, neither will the board, just no new updates. Of course you guys are more than welcome to come to the new site (http://www.potentiallyoffensive.com/) We will even have a pretty nice board up soon.

Thanks for the heads up Eric
My heart goes out to you Ramones and the family of your friend. Same with Val. I have never been in that position, so I can't even imagine.

Ramones; same here.
Eric; that's a good thing to know; given what I said about you all a few pages back, I'd hate to be unable to find this bunch if I ever have anything to talk about again.

Hey Myth and Oz! I'm still here. I'm stuck doing the occasional flybys though. Ryan's birthday is this weekend, and I've been trying to get ready for the party. Hopefully I can grace NB with my presence on a more regular basis soon. ;)
Ramones - I'm so sorry about your friend. If there's anything I can do, please let me know.

Hey ozgirl! How's it been going?? ;) The cruise was AWESEOM!!! Until I had to come home :( But seriously I really LOVE cruising. It was my second one and it is the best way to vacation!!!!
OTTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How goes it? I saw that Fiat moved in wtih you! That's so great! I'm so happy for you two!!!! :cheer:
Hey Nora!! :) I got yout myspace picture comment a few months ago where you said my boyfriend looks like Grath Brooks. Funny - Very funny! :unsure:

Oz - The party planning is going alright. I'm off in a minute to go buy a Thomas the Train pinata. Is that how that's spelled? I had a glass of wine with dinner and my spelling is a bit iffy. Maybe I should wait until tomorrow to go out! :blink: I don't know what that emoticon is supposed to be, but he looks like I feel at the moment! ;)
TV!!!!!!!!! It's so great to see you, dear friend! The cruise sounds nice. I'm glad you had a great time. It sounds like something H1 and I should have tried before kids. Oh well, it's fine to stay home all summer and paint the house too, right? Right? Are those crickets I hear in the background?
That's fine, Otts. Don't say hi to me or anything. :P
Nora - Jello is disturbing period. :lol:

VAL!!! It's so good to see you too! :woohoo: Oh cruises are the best. Boyfriend and I took one last year with his son, but this year we were alone! How old are your kids again? Kids actually LOVE cruises too. They have some great kids programs that they really enjoy and it gives you the chance to be alone some. I'd wait until your youngest is about 5 or 6 though. But it is so worth it!!!!! :side:
Hey Lone! :P

Hey all:) I've been a busy busy girl, so much so I ended up in Emergency with a wrenched back. The spasms were horrendous. Good drugs are a blessing:P
We had major storms last night and from the looks of things on tv, there was a lot of danage.
How's the brush fire situation in California?

Hello, everyone. Sorry I've been MIA. I've been avoiding a circulating virus that's been around for about 2 months now, but it finally caught me. I'm feeling much better now, still not much of an appetite but not as feverish.
TV - Elizabeth is 7 and Ryan just turned 4...can you believe it? I can't imagine Ryan on a cruise ship right now. Well, I can, but all I can see is him tumbling over the rail!:ohmy:
Oz - The party went well. I'm really just glad it's over. Ryan had a good time, so that's the most important thing, right? This was his very first friend party. Hmmm... I guess that means he'll expect another one next year, huh? :blink:
Lone - Jello is evil! ;)
Myth - Sorry about the back. Congrats on the drugs! I hope you're feeling better.

stumbles in and falls to the floor....
Whew what a set of weeks.
I have missed you all. Myth! You and your bad back. I am worried about you sista!
Students are gearing up for the summer and I have a new hove free from Big brother and the BIA. I am now state owned and online at the Uni.
I have my own office with a door for about 3 months. Yeah for ME!!!
Val you sex pot and a house filled with sickie kids.

Evening, all. Crazy times at work. Crazy in the sense that there's just too much of it. Better than no work at all but I do love my balanced work days. Working late tonight and then off to see some live music!
RRamones11 posts in this thread
#38 · May 18, 2007
oh 7 do tell about the music... I love music and just saw Damien Rice. Man that fellow is not so mellow and he can rock! Loved it.
Gearing up for a weekend of fun and games. No Nap has his ballet gala and then I have a friend coming to town and then there is live zydeco and drinking and raucousness behavior and fun for all!!!!
I may need a nap.
A smoochies hellhounds.

Val - Good lord! I can't believe your little ones have grown up so fast!!!! And yeah, I'd wait a couple of more years before taking them on a cruise. But they will LOVE it when they get a little older. My boyfriend's son is 8 and he had a blast. He keeps begging us to take him again!
I'm so glad it's Friday! I miss the old days of all out chatting that got me through a slow work day! At least I have a TV in my office to watch! :P

We had the Gin Blossoms here last night. The music was good but the crowd was horrid. Really ruined the experience. It's pretty much becoming a social event for high school and college age people that has nothing to do with listening to the music. Annoying...

7- that sucks. same way here tho. kills the concert experience completely.

Well, someone got fired in my office and I got hella promoted. I've been so busy during the day I barely have time to breathe. I hired anothe admin assistant who is just AWESOME. We laugh all day and get everything done. The guys at work are whistling zippa dee do dah out their asses it's such a dramatic change in atmosphere its like we're all on happy pils.
I'm making a lot more money, sleeping like the dead and things are going really, really well right now.:woohoo:

I was getting worried about you Nora. Good to hear that the news is all positive. Does this mean that there will be less Nathan worship in the office??
I will be a little put off if you're nicer to me:blink: Wouldn't know how to handle that:P
About the raise....guess you're taking all of us out to dinner in the near future:evil: ....after you pay the rond trip airline tickets:woohoo:

Guess I'll have to get Ramones to work 'that corner' and maybe get us both plane tickets out to Ca.:whistle: Her boobies will get us anything we want:laugh:
Hehe...we're both on at the same time for a change. Off to bed....after I diaper the Peke and break up the cat fight:pinch:
