There's another Alaskan actually named, "AnotherAlaskan", but s/he's been scarce.

Actully, I think that's libkitty's friend.

Huh, apparently I delurked in Jan 2002. That's a long lurkage (starting with TT in March 2000), but I still sounded like a twit when I did the deed.

Actually, I probo-mostly sound like a twit, so that's OK.

I dallied with other online communities in that lurkage phase (most notably Imladris, from the time the LOTR movies were leveraged), but all that did was convince me this one was a different breed.

Tea & Sympathy bath bomb (so perfect)

I was sooo thinking of you when I found it.

Glad the box arrived safely and finally. More than anything, I'm hoping you can get some relaxation and comfort from it. (And a little Springtime hope thrown in.)

Blessings to you as the year turns.

Luckily, I only walked by the guac and managed not to make an ass of myself at the F2F.

P'shaw! More than that! You stuffed us in your big car and drove us all over the town! Thanks to my fishnets and a pen in MtbF's pocket he wound up experiencing a world entirely new to him!

Hey, Vortex, yay on the package getting there and being good and all! I slackered you a couple of years ago and I've always felt bad that the first slackage wasn't all it could be, so it was great fun to get a do-over and give you a proper wow.

The lovely Ginger sent me a beautiful dragonfly hook! It's so pretty and it's going to be hung right by my light switch so I can hang my keys and purse on it!

what was it that Trudy said? P'shaw!!!

I'm currently in "buy lots of fun little random things to fill up the gift" mode :) FUN!

OMG, am idiot. Totally forgot to subscribe to this thread. Duh.

I am so sorry to read about the bad things verious peeps went through in 2006, and overjoyed to read the good things.

It seems unpossible that we have only had 5 years of Plei. In my mind you have been on since I found the board on TT.

Definitely. When I came back on in 2002, it felt like you had been there when I was here before.

Well, we all know that Juliana rocks, but after today, she rocks just a bit more in my world!

And this is why I was smacking myself for not subscribing!! I was all worried that the package had gotten delayed - I am so very glad that this is not the case, and that you like(d) your prezzies, Stephanie!

And, Ellie has appropriated the flahing disco blue rubber ducky as her own.

Aren't those fun? I always smack them in the store where I got it.

Ahhh, delurking. First delurked on TT, probably around July or August of 2000. Re-delurked when Phoenix went live - I had Issues with WX and also needed time to focus on Real Life things.

I just have to say that it is hard to get something to AK by Christmas.

I was so happy my mom wanted her Xmas present by the 15th, as it made me get my butt in gear to send presents to AK & PR in time! And to get a present shipped here from TO on time! (This is a very big thing for me - I'm never on time.)

I'll comment on 2006 in another post....

Yep! He now spends most his time with professional and political blogs. He liked buffistas, though. Were there more hours in the day, he'd probably join us again. That's where we're different. Were there more hours in the day, I'd probably get caught up on my professional reading. It's all priorities.

Good Bye and Good Riddance to... my Fabulous Boobies! I only started eating sensibly again two days ago and already they're shrinking. Oh well, they were fun while they lasted.
