Howdy Gidg
Just wanted to drop by and say a quick "ello" and such. Fixing to go to Walmart to get groceries and gas for my truck.
I've been kinda sickly for a while and am now getting over it all. Let's just say the dr's and nurses weren't happy with me telling them that I had let myself be sick for over 3months
Work is going good. Had a couple hospitilization cases come in. Nothing too major. Which is always good.
I can't wait til the weather gets alil warmer here and not so windy that way I can go enjoy spinning my fire poi!

Myste! You haven’t dropped off the face of the earth!
I’m glad you had a great Christmas. But the thought of going camping right now is just chilling (snow on the ground). Things have been a little rough. Between my brother (emotional drain) and the house and car (financial drain) I’ve decided that I really do need a vacation. But the trip to OZ has to be post-poned because the house and car has gobbled up the money I’ve been saving for my trip. *Sigh* time to start all over again with the savings. I understand that you will be here sometime in the February? All I have to say is bring your warm clothes girl because it’s going to be cold. Maybe with luck we can connect up while you’re about. I would be able to afford a weekend trip to Canada long before I can afford the trip to Australia. Aurora – Long time no hear! I’m sorry that you’ve been sick and I hope that you will be getting better. I know about the weather not letting you spin. We’ve been having freezing weather here, which makes it impossible to spin staff and next to impossible to keep hold of poi. But things are getting better; we should be hitting the 50-degree mark sometime this week.
Talk with you later. Growing old is mandatory; growing up is NOT.

DSS, how deep did you have to go to find this silly thread?

Deep enough but nothing to deep for a DSS to handle. Did you not make the avatar for yourself then no?

Nope, I cheated. It's part of the stock avatar's.
I couldn't pass it up though and I thought "why duplicate all that work when there is one already available". Yes I talk to myself ALL the time. ;

wowsers, i didn't even know we had stock avatars now! though many of them seem kinda odd...
I was always scared with my mother's obsession with the good scissors. It made me wonder if there were evil scissors lurking in the house somewhere.

Note to self: Get back to old scheduled. Get in chatroom to chat.
Ela - I've been there several times just lately, but no one was about. But then my schedule has been wierd lately so I've been in at off times.
Pounce - I was surprised about the stock avatars too. I did some surfing when I saw that we had some stock avatars. I was really surprised when I found the one I thought of designing. Didn't have to waste all that time on design, lucky me

More than likely, yours isn't showing up because it's on Angelfire. From what I remember, they don't allow images hosted on their servers to be accessed by anything but webpages that are also on angelfire.
Try saving the image onto your computer, then uploading it in your user settings here?

Yep, I noticed the dates when I was browsing through. Gotta love resurrected threads!
Aurora--Photobucket is ace for image hosting if you're using a web server that doesn't like external sites accessing their images.

I just noticed that too!There's alot of funny named towns in OK and some in TX. Most are hard to pronounce because of the way there are spelled.
I made some jambalaya for you and anybody else who wants some. I just dropped in on Puk's thread and left him some to try.

Thank you -jesse-.
I couldn't use my old image because it was too big and couldn't be used so I used one of my other doll pics. Now I people have something to look at besides "image hosted by angelfire"

Gidg walks to the closet and starts tossing things out into the room as she looks for another pogo stick

Shshshshsllllliiiinnnnnccccchhhhhkkkkk - Ooooh I wondered where that disappeared to! Shshshshsllllliiiinnnnnccccchhhhhkkkkk, Shshshshsllllliiiinnnnnccccchhhhhkkkkk
Oooooh here they are! Now which one to use. There is the Black and Silver one with the Mega Spring that Valura gave me and then there is the Red one with the streamers that Narr gave me?
Gidg sits down on the floor, looking at the two pogo sticks, trying to decide which one to use first.

Gidg jumps up from the floor and grabs the black and silver pogo stick and starts bouncing ... boing ... boing ... boing ...
Yep, this is a good one to start with. I'll have to remember to switch so that both get used.Thanks for the incense Woodnymph, this place can get a little musty every now and then. But it IS sort of getting cleaned up With her foot, Gidg pushes the pile of stuff from the closet behind the sofa
SC, you really FRD's little brother? Oh you poor poor guy
OK FRD, how do you get the bouncers to bounce opposite? Mine never do and I want them too.
Well I'm off to welcome to more folks. See you peeps around!
