They don't like the fight thread. They wanna keep fighting here instead. Please report these interruptions. They wouldn't hesitate to report you.

Im not going to argue with anyone, i do have the right to be silent just not the ability, but will try, now give me and others some more suggestions!!!!

[Sofiyya 1,687]

I have some good to rev him up before he gets here. Some can be used after he's here too:

Gifts to send:

1. A gift certificate to their favorite store.

2. A phone card to talk to you with.

3. A list of 101 reasons why you love your partner.

4. Why send just one letter? Send a card every day for a week.

5. Send an original love poem.

6. Write your love story. Print it out on paper with a graphical background such as clouds.

7. If your love has a computer, create a series of love graphics and send him the disk for them.

8. Have a friend take pictures of you in silly or romantic poses. Glue captions to your favorites and send your love the finished product!

9. Press a dozen roses onto index cards. With each rose include a reason why you love your partner or a love quote.

10. Give your partner a list of reasons why you are glad they were born.

11. Send copies of articles that would interest your partner.

12. Send them a copy of their astrological chart.

13. Give them love coupons.

14. Every week send them one essay on something about you.

15. Send them a "ransom-style" love letter.

When you send your gift, take extra care in decorating it so your partner will have something to look forward to when they see it. Spray your perfume or cologne on the envelope. Decorate it with stickers or cute drawings. Use your imagination!

amen, brinido!

i honestly didn't think this topic would go in the sex direction. i was asking for romantic ideas to make my home more comfortable, gifts, food, drink, music, things to do, etc for his first night. i already knew the "fill in the blank " part. but since it went in that direction its A-OKAY by me!

Right, this topic was not about sex, it was implied in a cute way but let me tell you why it blew it. Not too long ago there was a 20 page thread full of fighting over the whole "sex toy" thing. So if you go back to the beginning pages of this thread you will clearly see that Green-Eyed took it in that direction again and kept going and going with it. She was clearly trying to provoke another fight and she got what she wanted. This whole song and dance she is giving about being a victim is the biggest load of BS I have ever seen, the long time members of this board know she is not a target. She brings this on herself and lately has done quite a good job in dividing the board into an "us against them" routine which is beyond stupid. For someone who claims to hate high school games so much, she sure does play them alot!

I know you are not trying to talk about anybody. What day was that again.............

[Private 1]

right on im tired of mowing, ha we were sitting at a coffee shop one moring and a guy was mowing, i could tell he had never done that before. Also im not a big fan of this going back 3 weeks at 9 in the evening pulling out old threads to prove a point, nor all the quotes. Its very childish to keep rehashing over and over. Take what is new for today, discuss it and go on life is to short and times are to trying for all this. One just got their ok from Calif there are a few of us right there close, its getting a little exciting now

Boy I miss everything these days.

quote name='Natty Bumppo' date='Feb 7 2007, 04:29 AM' post='710087']<BR>practical thoughts:<BR>is there a space for his clothes or other belongings. it may be difficult, but will it be possible to have empty drawers and closet space available before he arrives ?<BR><BR>also, is there a place where the suitcase(s) can disappear ... err ... be put away? <BR><BR>it may have been mentioned before, but what about a little spending $$$ or gift cards as part of the basket (placed in envelope or card). this is case he didn't exchange enough at the POE or funds are tied into an account that is not readily available. (call it ... emergency funds .... to be used at your discretion).just thoughts ... because sometimes the small practical things thought out in advance can help too

All good things to start thinking on. I know myself I have 4 suitcases, and I find it annoying to find room for them. I think getting one of the gift card Visa/Mastercards for the POE is a great idea! Donnot have to worry about exchanging money (lossing some in the process) and carrying cash around. Some airport infamous for theft.About the closet space, well my husband's arrival is ways off, but I *hope* by then to get a larger apartment.

Unfortunately there's no way to report 'delusions of grandeur' otherwise I would have reported you long ago. However, since you've never done anything reportable, IMO per TOS, I've never reported you. And certainly Okie hasn't done anything reportable. I didn't realize responding to posts is reportable, let alone 'interrupting szsz's fun'...that's a good one, though.

But carry on with your dramatic posts that are supposedly above it all.

The one thing my husband did (not in his welcome package) was to get me a prepaid cellphone card.

I didn't need a cellphone cause I brought my own, but with the prepaid card we could be in touch anytime.

[Sofiyya 1,687]

Insha'allah, we'll be moving (back) to Potomac shortly after he comes. Lots of closet space there!

Best post ever!

Do have them watch the weight of the suitcases, i saw many both coming and going having to repack while standing right there in line. He seems to think he can bring everything he always wanted to have here at one time, i told him best to divide it out into things for (right now) mail some on ahead, or leave for family to follow up on little at a time.

Everybody has it in his power to bring happiness.

Some can do it coming into a room.

Some can do it by just leaving a room.

Live Well

Laugh Often

Love Much

Sorry just got this and wanted to share

[Sofiyya 1,687]

My husband's bringing very little, insha'allah. His older brothers steal his clothes anyway coz he has such good taste I want to buy his clothes and dress him up like a doll anyway

[natty bumppo 297]

whew ... finally found the remote and changed channels.

Hey ... where did everyone go ... I want to play too ...

[brnidokiegurl 0]

Maybe thats an idea, one of those remote holders so both will always know where its at
