Nice choice on the Rickenbacker, Ali.

By the way, if it's not a Rickenbacker, sorry.  I don't want to feel like an asshat.

Darn straight, she has! Dangit, I have, too.

Should I make the announcement here? Or start my own thread about it? I dunno, but we are officially dating as of Monday and it is the most beautiful thing I've ever been a part of. She has this joy that is completely beautiful, and she loves Jesus in this way that just makes me smile from joy, and I just keep realizing more and more how much the two of us have to offer eachother.

I could gush about this girl for a very long time... I am very thankful for her.

Post by: SiOuxTribe on Nov 22, 2006, 06:34 PM
I want nothing.  Donate to the people who have absolutely nothing.

Or, steal from the rich and give to the poor, like Mr. Robin Hood (the fox version was cool).
We haven't gotten eachother presents in our household in a few years now, and I'm very happy about it.  

Controversy:
I've seen alot of people celebrate Christmas, but only for the presents. They are run strictly if not mostly by greed.  Greed is a deadly sin in that religion, right?  Sad to see that.
When was the last time they gave instead of recieved.  Or produced instead of consumed.

awwww, Deanna, I hope he starts to feel better soon. I remember when my roommate's chihuahua got really, really sick this summer. I felt like it was my own child in the hospital. I'll keep Scruffy in my thoughts. Dogs are the best. They make the most loyal friends.

For Christmas, I told my family that I want a chihuahua of my own. I'm gonna name him Sammy Davis Junior Junior.

Thank you!!

You guys know what? I wrote that message that he was sick last year and he's still doing relatively well! He scared the hell out of us. I didn't realize that an entire year has gone by... the vets told us to be cautious when estimating how long he would live. They weren't sure he was going to make it much longer.

And now a year later, he is hanging in there, taking his medicine every day like a good boy. I cherish the rest of the time we have together. Thank you guys for your good thoughts - they worked!

This year, if I may be so bold, I would like a trip to Philadelphia and a 160GB iPod.  :D
