667059 I miss you, too! Where are you hanging out? You're not even in Truth North much these days....

from Michelle
8 days ago, 03:35PM

512643 That is crazy! I'm happy both drivers will be okay. I wonder if you will have to go to court because of it.

from Kirk
8 days ago, 11:22AM

667059 Hehehe---that's what my friends get for questioning a pic of "the real me." I found that pic online, so it makes it all the more disturbing if it is indeed Mini-Me's hand!

from Michelle
8 days ago, 11:01AM

512643 I've been toying with the idea of turning off my update feed when I comment in groups. I understand though - the FOMS are tough for me as well.

193310 naw, the goodreads gods know better than that. and you're just jealous you're not part of the stable. heh.

from David

698433 This is exactly how I look when I talk to you, Sarah. Especially when you say anything about Harry Connick Jr. I mean, when I'm not vomiting.

from Michelle

512643 The 'party' was mustache rides. Yuck!

10 days ago, 06:14PM

372363 Lurk away my dear... lurk away. (Please let me in on anything juicy that I miss, okay?)

10 days ago, 05:52PM

372363 You don't do mini-am anymore, so you missed "him" asking Chairy to be his friend again, and if she'd come to his party and did she know what a party was?

This is me, flipping the bird, in a way.

26511 Hey, no problem--I understand. Another time!

from Jackie

289556 Sarah, you are one singular sensation, even in a faux-Bavarian chorus girl outfit. But then, I always loved you for your mind, anyway.

from David
14 days ago, 11:17AM

698433 Don't be such a poophead, my sweet. I just said that if even if you were the geekiest of geeks, you'd still have my vote. That's a compliment, in case you didn't recognize it!

(I can't help it if Connick has mondo-mammaries.)

from David
14 days ago, 11:09AM

698433 Aw shucks!

*blushes*

I crush you back.

(Am I supposed to put gum in your hair or throw rocks at you now? Those are the third grade rules, right?)

from David
14 days ago, 11:01AM

698433 Hairy, the Outhouse is soooooo passe and a total sell-out. Those people aren't sufficiently uncool. Like, for instance, I'll bet there's not even one forty-seven-year-old virgin who's still living in his parents' basement and speaks fluent Klingon over there. (Just a bunch of uncool posers.)

Is the confession the one about video games (above)? I won't think any less of you if you're a gamer geek, a Connick boob fetishist, or even if you still wear a dental headgear to bed.

from Kirk
16 days ago, 03:33PM

667059 Of course not! I just haven't had time lately to read in it. But if you're over there I will be, definitely!

from Kirk
16 days ago, 03:19PM

667059 Holy crap. I thought you were on vacation or something. Where was I that day? I guess I was working.... I'm sorry you went through that, but I understand your position completely. Now I need to figure out another group you're in so we can keep on talking. I missed you!

from Kirk
16 days ago, 02:50PM

667059 Huh? What? When was this? Where was I? I saw your pic with Michelle but I thought you said you were taking a break... what happened???

from Kirk
16 days ago, 02:36PM

667059 Where are you lately? You aren't commenting in other groups are you? That's GoodReadultery!

from brian

193310 y'know, i don't necessarily have to be drunk for you to take advantage of me...

How ya been, Sarah?

667059 Ooo La Lah! That's a nice picture of you. Despite what David seems to be implying.

from David
17 days ago, 12:11PM

698433 Looks like someone's playin' with the photo editing software. That, or you really, really need some sun.

from Theresa

925476 That is a cute new picture of you (with the hat). :)

from David

698433 Well, I hope these two music pastors at least bought each other dinner first.

I heard that you and the Boobs are doin' coffee. Make sure you guys have sex with each other.

(Damn. This message isn't going to make sense to many people.)

from Amelia

629685 In that context, I don't know how you kept from wetting yourself! If I had been there, all I'd have needed was to catch your eye, and you would have LOST IT! :)

537046 That sure is a purdy woman in that picture. Does she have a sister?

from Sera

576203 Hi, Sarah! Sorry that I haven't been around much, but lots going on at work and at home. I miss you, gal! And, you will certainly get a pic as soon as my husband finds it for me. I'm trying to dispel the rumor that I am a CIA operative :)

24 days ago, 01:18PM

1188333 Sarah, I like the new photo. VERY saucy and yet sweet.
