What's wrong with my new profile picture? I love it! ❤
Meg wrote: "Emma wrote: "You may tell Meggy that I am now de-friending her. 😤"😥😭"
Meg, I didn't mean it!!! I'm sure I'll love your profile picture eventually!! And I'm sure I can find forgiveness deep within me for what you told Dorry!!

Hey, you've changer your profile pic I don't know how many times since I've known you! This is only the 3rd time I've changed mine since I've been on GR! 😂
And I just had to tell Dorry since she was implying that she was the only nice person on here!

Those are very good points, that I will consider. Dorry thinks she's the only nice person on here?

🙄🤣🤣🤣 Well, if that's the case,then who's doing the next quiz??
Emma wrote: "🙄🤣🤣🤣 Well, if that's the case,then who's doing the next quiz??"1. I didn't say I was the only nice person on here. I said that since Pammy wasn't going to take it, and there was no one else nice on here...
2. I like Cutie Patootie, so she may have the next round!

Cutie Patootie is not able to do the quiz.

She just decided to not be a member anymore. 🤷🏻♀️ It was nothing against all of you.

Well, then Twilight will ask the next question...

Ok, here's your question...which author said, "b drfe 56rtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrt444444444444444444?"
Meg wrote: "We will miss Allyson, Emma!"Umm I'll pass that on to Allyson, but I'm staying?
Meg wrote: "Dorothy wrote: "Well, then Twilight will ask the next question..."Twilight BIT you last night! I DID NOT bite you last night!"
But you did bite me tomorrow night.
Dorothy wrote: "Meg wrote: "Dorothy wrote: "Well, then Twilight will ask the next question..."Twilight BIT you last night! I DID NOT bite you last night!"

🤨 You can see in the future?
Emma wrote: "Meg wrote: "We will miss Allyson, Emma!"Umm I'll pass that on to Allyson, but I'm staying?"
Are you trying to say that we wouldn't miss you if you left? Because that couldn't be further from the truth!

🙄-Oh please! Chicken is running from imaginary food.
This round was too chaotic for me.

Yes, it's one of my "strange" faculties.

That's very sweet of you to say, but I meant that Meg was making it sound like she was saying bye to Allyson AND me. 😂
Ruth wrote: "🙄-Oh please! Chicken is running from imaginary food.This round was too chaotic for me."
Do you want the next round? Since Cutie Patootie isn't here, I feel the urge to give it to you, since you were so forgiving of the trespasses on your name.

Nice person? Since when?😋
Ruth wrote: "Nice person? Since when?😋"Who are you referring to?!
Is Allyson serious about leaving? Why?
Ruth wrote: "Is Allyson serious about leaving? Why?"
I'm still sorta confused about it. Yes, she left, she said she was just tired of it. Not of you guys! She's not super big into Goodreads, so I think she was getting tired of trying to keep up on the conversations.

Come on, Emma, let's go to the beach.

Yes, I have, Ruth. The New Jersey shore is not far and I have been to Ocean City, Long Beach Island, Cape May, Avalon, Wildwood and Atlantic City. Atlantic City was much nicer before the casinos took over, but my favorite is Wildwood! I vacationed there several times when I was younger! I've also been to Coney Island, NY, Virginia Beach, a few beaches on Long Island, NY and Mystic CT. I really enjoyed Mystic, CT! It's beautiful, with lots of historic sites. Cape May NJ is full of beautiful Victorian homes and that is a really nice place, too!
