I don't know who I love more - no, it's equal I think. Kurovski has an edge, because he NEVER leaves me!

24. I think I miss PMs coz I don't have the flashy doohicky show up.
Is there a way to change that, so it shows when I'm reading?

26. It only shows up for me briefly at the top of the screen
and sometimes, I don't notice it. The only thing you can do, that I can see, to not miss PM's, is to have a notice sent to your email addy. You can do this by going to Options - it's one of the many things you can do, but I saw nothing about that flashy doohicky!

I never realized that I wanted it, until just now. You have the BEST ideas. I don't think we can GET it, and that is disappointing to me. Damn you, anyway! :cry:

33. Oh, yes, it's a great blog - now I think you have my email address, too
Or, one of them, anyway. My anonymity is almost all gone, and I still don't know a DAMN thing about you, except a guess at a possible location. Oh, wait - my son's name and mine are different...whew! Now, I think I am going to get notifications when you add things to your blog, and I can't wait!

:grouphug: - Dave's in there, too!

34. It's a great shell. I hope to pour equally worthy content into the vessel.
Now, you were bragging about your stalking?

:rofl:

P.S. For such a skinny little shit, he gives powerful hugs.

35. Hugs are great!
And, well - about my stalking, I don't want to type this out loud, so I'm going to PM this, and then go to feed the pups for the very first time - should be quite a mess!

What have the pups eaten up until now?

God, I probably would kill them, after all.

37. OMG you didn't just ask that about 3 week old pups?

:rofl:



You WOULD kill them - their mommy fed them. But they have to be WEANED and they don't just do that by themselves.


Oh my.......God help that plant!

Do the pups get mani/pedis before three weeks?

39. You're hopeless for sure and I'm not a "farm girl"
I do have common sense, and I love animals, and wanted to be a vet when I was little, but realized I couldn't stand the sight of blood much, or take my dog for a shot and not look away. But you......HOPELESS.

SOMEONE GET THAT PLANT AWAY FROM HIM!

40. I sing to my plant.
Does that count? It's doubled in height in the last year.

OK, I didn't realize the pups' mom was still in the picture.

41. It counts, yes - it means you're crazier than I thought!
On the other hand, maybe I'll start singing to my half dead tree that's been half dead for years - some evergreen type, that I've never managed to kill completely. I'll let you know the results.

I'll miss you the most I think - while I watch a movie....
