Glad you understand my point. ;D

Hi LC!!!!

There is new people in the SHOV (cenwolfgirl, metalFae) and they are good talkers  :). And Don, GW and me are no shy too.

How are you? How is the weather treating you?
Missing you, Md 

There are many horrible sights in the multiverse. Somehow, though, to a soul attuned to the subtle rhythms of a library, there are few worse sights than a hole where a book ought to be. Someone has stolen a book (Terry Pratchett)

Good morning, ((Dina))!

Yeah, I'm gonna catch up on reading to get to know them a bit....

Well, I'm sure Doc told you guys, that we're not freezing at -15°C in the morning anymore... Now it feels almost warm, -4°C at night +1° during lunch... But a LOT of snow... Lots of flights were canceled in the last 3 days....

Yeah, home early... So I thought I check up the forum before I go and take a look at an apartment.... ;)

The last one I saw had a tiny kitchen and the landlord wanted refference from the last 3 landlords... I told the real estate agent I have only the phone number of my current landlord... The last one moved from Heidelberg to Houston TX with his daughter.... And the one in Bucharest which would be the third on the list... Don't have any contact information anymore... The answer was "Well, then it's settled, because the landlord wants solid refferences".

Hello Weird!

Hey. Um. Something I've noticed. Some people have certain Spoiler-ish signatures. I saw someone earlier this week with a RIP Bob picture in their Signature.  :'( I've only JUST started Ghost Stories...So it's kind of a buzz kill for me to see that stuff. Just a heads up, there are still New people that are in the middle of the series. Thanks! :D

In other news...What's up with everyone? I saw some talk about people coming out of the closet in some earlier posts. I had a friend who came out to me a few years ago. I just laughed and said, "Well Duh! I knew the whole time, I was wondering when you would tell me!" :)

Clinic is busy today but I can pop in every now and then. *Sips her coffee* I got ready in record time today. 10 minutes! I overslept and still made it to work on time... go me! :D
MF you  should stop shoving things in peoples mouths. I'm feeling left out. :(
Oh really? Huh. Well this is awkward.

Hi, MetalFae! Nice to meet you!

 RIP Bob is no spoiler... Bob was a forum member that used the DF Bob picture as his avatar... Sadly he passed away, and the members are still honouring him in their signatures...

Wow, paranoid landlord. Kepping my thumbs pressed (as we say in Germany) for your hunt for a new apartment! :)

Thank you! Doc, you're absolutely right...and such a paranoid landlord probably has stipulated in the rent lease that I can't paint the apartment other than white... Or something like it... So good riddance...

MF, you're welcome... Love your avatar!  :)
