Thanks everyone!

Hmmmmm..... I'm light pink....

Well Dom, I think I'll be getting the best present for Christmas. Hopefully my Mom (age 79) will be discharged from the hospital in time for the holiday. Check out my blog for the details. Neither I, nor my father have had time for ANY Christmas shopping thus far, we've spent all of our time at the hospital. It was touch and go for a while, she spent 2 weeks in ICU and her final diagnosis is Pulmonary Fibrosis. There is NO cure and the treatments are only effective in about 25% of those diagnosed. I thank God every day that my Mom falls into that 25%. Hopefully we'll have her around for a few more holidays. She's actually coherent about 80-90% of the time now too. I haven't worked since prior to Thanksgiving, so it's definately a "hard-candy Christmas" for me. The savings is about empty and the cupboards are almost bare, so no Christmas Tree, no stockings, no presents, for me and my family. But we are the most blessed and the most lucky. Now, I just read what I wrote. I didn't mean to lay a guilt trip on anyone. That was definately not my intention. Hasn't the Season become over commercialized anyway? Happy Holidays! May your god bless you!

:king: Well... that was... ummm..... royally amusing!

Working for me now too.... My thanks to whomever got it fixed!!

I must be getting old.... what's "emo"??

I don't think it was a "stupid moment", "blond moment" maybe, but after reading all your posts slaveboy, you are definately not stupid! Just comes from being so young I think, definately not stupid.

Hmmm..... As for the age difference, it could be any number of things. I've personally never been one to beat around the bush. It's been said before in reply to your post. "Good Communication" is definately the key.

Hmmm..... 4, 4, 11, 12

Ok, I really feel old.... The story of Cinderella.... midnight, changed back into.... Oh! Never mind! LOL

LOL! Ok. I know how your dad feels. My niece is just 12.... her measurements??? 34-24-34. Perfect hourglass figure! I told her IF her mother (my sister) EVER let her date, I'd be there with a shotgun! Men are walking penisisisisisisis.....

Sounds like you're up for a promotion! Congratulations!

WOoohoooOOOo!!! ok! When't Chapter 2 coming out? LOL Keep up the good work! I wish I had the skills necessary to write!

Green to add to that Green you are really a great friend. Chaz is very lucky and well, I feel Chaz is a great friend to you. I am betting you will be amazing long term friends:) and end up in an LTF (long term friendship) and in some ways you tend to be each others ying and yang in terms of gettting each others backs in fun times and tough ones. So, Green, since I feel like you are friend, we have your back and Chaz's too in the coming days as Chaz comes out. Hey, if Chaz feels comfortable, don't forget to include your husband so he feels part of the process and friendship (of course it helps you if your hubby wants to be included and I might add since Chaz is such a hottie, then it should help cut down on the jealousy factor which may ensue.) On another note, with twins there have been studies about Gay twins...usually, identical twins both are either straight or Gay and with fraternal twins, I think if one is Gay sometimes the other is straight..I think I read that some where.) Green you are the best:) Michael I'll add my two cents in here. You are a GREAT FRIEND. I don't know what the situation is and I will not ask you to break confidence. Be there for him, but check for other resources in your area, gay youth groups, counseling centers, etc, JUST IN CASE it gets to be to much for you to handle. From reading your other posts it seems that Chaz has been troubled before. Be there for him, but know when to say that it's to much for you to handle and that there are compassionate professionals out there. On the twins issue that that Michael mentioned. I personally know quite a few sets of twins, fraternal and identical. The 2 fraternal sets of twins, one out of the four is gay. Of the three identical, one set self-identifies as gay, one straight, and the other; one gay and one straight. Personally, I think he's at least bi, but closeted. He supports his brother entirely, but his parents are "with it".

Get well soon! And I know that people will hate me for this, but if you have to rest, quit worrying about the stories! They'll be there when you get better! Try a shot of whiskey with honey & lemon, turn up the heat in your house, wrap up in a comforter and SLEEP!

Well, by all means keep us posted! When I was growing up, we had a Costco come in near us and my folks decided to try the "buy in bulk" thing. It didn't work! My mom decided to prove her point and just let my dad go hog wild. Needless to say we ended up throwing over half the stuff away I think because it went bad..... hehehe. Needless to say when my mom started throwing the stuff out.... dad was not pleased. Mom just looked at him and said "told ya so!" That was the end of my family buying in bulk.

OMG! And here I thought.... never mind. I'm operating on the assumption that you are NOT joking mutt... Maybe I'm just OLD but I was taught at an early age not to play with matches/lighters... I'm happy that you only sustained minor injuries, it could have been alot worse. This picture is of Fidel Quezada Borda who was burned in February 2003 in a propane explosion. These are just pictures of his facial injuries. He also suffered injuries to other parts of his body. Moral of the story... don't play with fire or explosives. You could get seriously hurt.

If only to be a fly on the wall! I'm sorry to hear about your family being a bunch of shitz! It sounds as if you have a great group of friends though! My hats off to you and to Chaz.

OMG! I can't imagine talking to a Help Desk why the person was on the :nuke: crapper :nuke: !!!

:wacko: Can someone please explain how you burn a hole in your countertop while carving a pumpkin?? :pickaxe: Looking forward to the final chapter(s) of TOU and the completion of DD! Woohoo!!!

I email Bill O'Reilly.... hehehehe.... keep an eye out on Fox News and let me know if anyone hears anything!
