Posted question on EN and D/D boards this first. Just put it on GQ and OT boards. So far, out of 16 replies, I have 2 yeses and 14 nos. I hope to get more responses.<P>Frankly, in light of what I've read, I'm surprised by these numbers. Let me just leave it at that. I don't want my comments to skew the responses.

Really? it surprises you huh? I would be interested in that article of where you read your "suprising" numbers at when you feel you can accomplished your princessly duty with this study!<P>Can you do that, is it online?<P>Drew

Well time for fun in the sun tonight...well eventually. I am here for a while tonight...another 2 1/2 hrs, but I am sure everyone else on here is normal and actually eats dinner...LOL<P>Cinderella, I read your post about the "gathering" thing, I think Nashville would be a blast! They have a decent airport to right?<P>Would help ya if I was closer. I guess someone needs to take the bull by the horns and say It is "here" and this is the date!?<P>What do ya think?<P>Any and all comments welcome!<P>Drew

Guess everyone is dragging tonight...Well I guess I am off and running...time to kick some tail on the sand volleyball court!<P>Drew

Hey ladies...oh and Murph too! LOL<P>Did I miss anything fun? Just got home from a very sweaty, humid night of sand volleyball, and the prince (reference to Cinderella) OR MST (right Gina!) is tuckered out, but wired!<P>What is a guy to do, when he is tired, but wired? HELP...LOL<P>No actually just wanted to say hello to ya all, wish you all good Wednesdays...lets see what is the reference to Wednesday? HUMMMM, I just can't remember <P>Seriously, hope you all have good Wednesday, and may you all sleep well! Especially you Dana. You need MORE!!!!<P>Take care all!<P>Drew

Hi Drew,<P>Yeah, I've come up from the bowels of lurkdom for you... I always was just sitting on the sidelines, even at Mitzi's party... I'm the kind that likes to people-watch... unless I get plastered, then I'm dancing on the tables... but I digress.<P>I'm not snubbing you, just not around the boards much lately... nothing personal at all!!<P>PARTY ON! <P>Chap

Chap...good to hear from you!!!<P>You okay, or just laying low for the heck of it? Glad you spoke up, have been wondering where you've been at!<P>Update us all, or just let ME know...LOL<P>Cheers <BR>Drew

Long story Drew, but thanks for asking...<P>Divorce still on the go...<P>I'm just pondering life, as usual, and not trusting myself, which happens too often.<P>Working through some icky stuff...<P>I am okay... just barely.<P>And mostly, don't feel very marriage-buildy, so don't want to bring anyone down.<P>Again, thanks for worrying and wondering...<P>Chap<BR>

Chap,<P>We all have them days, I know them very well. I think at least in MY opinion that even on them Blue days you should talk on here, get some guidance and help, at least some good words to feed off of.<P>I think alot of peoples' situations are alot harder then mine is...I don't have kids, and I still get along well, so I guess that is the bright side for me!<P>But still miss the heck out of her! Anyway, don't ever feel like you need or have to stand off on the sidelines, that is what the MB board is for...to get help, words and ideas to help move on with life!<P>This is a very hard time and if you need help, come on a board with all the rest of us and speak up (o:<P>Hang in there okay, wish could help ya out more!<P>Drew

NB, <BR>Keep posting here, even on those bad days...believe me, we all have them and sometime it is good to vent here, since we have gone through it ourselves. <P>Those days get fewer and fewer as time goes by...and the good days get more frequent!<P>------------------<BR>Susan

See Chap/NB<P>two of us vote that you should post on the bad days too!<P>Sue is so right!!!<P>We can have fun on here, BUT, the whole purpose is to seek help and offer help! I like to be goofy, but I am here to lend a hand and get help first and foremost, so don't worry about posting, ya gotta get it out and on the table and see if MB posters can help you Chap!<P>Hope to hear more from you no matter what it is, fun talk or NOT fun talk, be heard NB <P>Drew

Hi party people,<P>Mitzi, CALLING OUT TO MITZI<>............ANSWER YOUR EMAILS!! <P>to the rest of the people on the thread, I'd love to meet. I'm in NY. I can't travel too far because its hard for me to leave the kids with anyone but I would love to get together.<P>We should be able to get some kind of deal if we register somewhere as a "group" (what a kooky group we'll be!). Also, there are a few ways to get discounted airlines, I am on the PC all the time, I can look that up. I myself, was thinking of taking a train trip so I can see the scenery!!<P>If we figure out who would like to get together, maybe we can figure out some kind of central location for all of us. It seems like we are central to eastern side of country? <P>Count me in, long as I have time to save and bribe my family for a sitter! <P>Dana<BR>

I have no clue what to do about a get-together. If someone will give me guidance as to the things needed, I'll make inquiries if Nashville sounds agreeable. I've never done anything like this so I'll be a total babe in the woods on it. Surely we can get a group rate. I sure don't have the money to guarantee a set number of rooms. We'd need some committments, etc., I would assume.<P>We do have Murphy out on west coast. I think Butterfly is there, too. <P>Hey, might could get a group lodge at a state park - put us all under the same roof?ROFLMAO!!!!!!Wouldn't that be a hoot. Bad idea though. Wouldn't be in Nashville. Probably 40 miles out of town at least. Hotel in town with shuttle to/from airport might be best.<P>If we did the group lodge, we could rent a big van and do our own shuttle. We could be really brave(or is that stupid) and include kids.<P>Toss it around folks, are we full of hot air or action?<BR>

silly old bulletin board<p>[This message has been edited by cinderella (edited August 10, 2000).]

Drew - what kind of throne do you think I'm hiding on? The royalty thing or the porcelain one?<P>I am a superlative princess and would be most discrete about the latter. Seriously, my mom owns this beautiful antique chair. Oval seat, oval back. Gorgeous carving. Rose velvet upholstery. Has always reminded me of a dimunutive throne.<P> Yeah, the guys are eagerly anticipating that picture of the group of women at the party. Well, I'm still waiting for the grope picture of the men. That's how I heard it discribed. The grope picture?
