I have to admit I've "adopted" quite a few wonderful smiley's from this thread, and that My Candy one is PERFECT!!! I love it.
Y'all are too cool. I'm glad I found this thread.
Agreed, MY CANDY is so funny!! i saved that one too.

Oh, yeah. Twisties and ups and downs too! The road that leads from the Mill to my house has about 8 or 10 curves and rises about 200 feet in altitude in less than a half a mile.

Good girl.

Thyodin- you're off the naughty list now. BTW- what does your name mean and what nickname would you prefer to be called?

So Hal is asking to be on the naughty list? Consider it done!

I know,, I am one sick pup!

oh, and I can't guarantee that Miniloa will be so lenient...
Thank you for straightening this out Cab. I think we all have to hold strong on this old pic thing. Once one exception is made then others will be upset. Gem worked all day to come up with one so I have to insist that Hal takes a pic of an old pic and posts. Cough it up!

Gem- You found your chocolate!!!

Cab- Where was that dive pic taken? The water looked nice. I was thinking... if I was the one in that water there would be a different look on my face. It would be one of fear... and a shark fin circling in the background!

Lil- It's always the quiet ones, right?!? Or the ones that USED TO BE the quiet ones.

Hal- I think I've been by your house before! Breathe easy though... I wasn't wearing a wig. I'll have to Google Earth the area and see. I don't ever know where I am... just know that I'm having a blast when I'm driving! **OK, just checked yhe map. I went to this place- http://www.backwoodszoocrew.com/home.html and that's where I got my cat George. Then we drove to the Dragon with George and drove back to Florida. I think this place is in Centre, AL... would your house be somewhere along the way to get to the Dragon? I've only been there once.

So Sika- do you have yourself a Cougar?

Well, looks like I'm talking to myself so I guess I'll stop.

Gem, Cab, UhOh- You guys didn't like my pics? I posted incognito, FEET and a real one without big hair just for you.

I've been powering over the last 7+ pages of this thread off and on for 2 days now. I FINALLY finish and everyone is GONE??!! East Coast/West Coast time difference, I guess.

Anyway, I'm celebrating MY 46th Birthday Today and have had a Fun Filled Day. Hubby and I drove up to Multnomah Falls, had Lunch, shopped in Downtown Portland, had Ice Cream at Ben&Jerry's, bought some Cupcakes for Dessert after my Birthday Dinner, went to Dinner at Original Roadhouse and came home to catch up on "As the MINI Turns..."

Since I wasn't named to the 'Bad List' I thought I'd bore you all with a HS Pic. of me, sorry it's so bad, I actually had to take a pic. of it with my cell phone. I had made a Collage of some Family Photos a long time ago, the frame is now falling apart, but the pics. are still attached to the backing so I'm balancing the pics. on my knee and trying to get a good enough pic.




I've always had Razor Straight Hair (Straw)...I had an accident when I was 2 Years Old and my Mom says the meds. they gave me while I was in the Hospital is what caused my hair to be so straight. Before then I had Ringlettes all over my head.

Anyway, thought I'd share. I have a Year Old Pic. of me in my Gallery, with quite a bit more weight on than what I have now, AND my Molly Car is beside me!!

Awww sweetie, I loved your pics!! I'm sorry, when it moves this fast and furious I leave out important replies..
I loved the red wig,, and you eyes,,,well your eyes do look a little manic!! But I can still see the goodness in there, in truth I think you were trying to look sexy...
The feet were awesome and I am guessing that those mountains were in Colorado? Do you ski? I never ever have tried to ski, I figure with all of my injuries the last thing I need to do is strap on skis!!
And the other shot I saw of you on here somewhere before??? I think??
And I think your shorter hair style is adorable.
I really should re read these last 10-12 pages and see all that I missed.

RJ--- Happy Happy Happy Birthday!! Your special day sounds awesome!!
And you are still not off of the hook,,,, while I am sure it was just a mistake that you were not on the bad list-- you have to actually have a pic on here THAT ACTUALLY SHOWS UP

Get to work girl!!

I have to dash off now, I am actually driving to Ottos before my work day starts to have my driver side window fixed.....

Morning folks...
Y'all can certainly talk a LOT! I tried to keep up last night but, sorry for this, Grey's/PP got me first!
Now it's time to get kids to school and me moving... Yawn! I swear someone took the caffeine outta my coffee - grrr... wonder if it's the sock troll, he's seemed a bit voracious the last few days, I'm beginning to think he's found my caffeine and it's causing him to eat more socks!
Cab, that pix of you in the water cracked me up! First thing I thought of was that you were imitating a trick dolphin, jumping up for a treat (was it chocolate?!)
Gotta run- TTYL-

I'm west coast, so sleeping in to you is 3 hours difference. I'm usually up at 6:15-7, I just don't get on here right away as I have dogs to walk and fantasy sports stuff to check, emails, breakfast, etc.

So there!
