Elmy, I sent you a email about the picture. I also saw you have a birthday this week. I would like to ask you all to email me your birth dates. Any reason to celebrate right? You don’t have to give your age just the date. Thank you!

Hi all,
I love this picture of Henry. It is my alltime favorites. Thanks for putting it up.
July 7, 2008 at 11:33 am
Gorgeous pic. Thanks for it.
July 7, 2008 at 11:36 am
Hey Bridget we have that video up under our video tag. Nikki knows I’m going to put up anything she makes, I don’t even ask her if it’s ok anymore! She is one of the best out there, and a wonderful person too.
July 7, 2008 at 11:38 am
Morning all…Had a wild weekend here and I hope everyone had a great 4th!! I love the new pic for this page!! Will be in and out all day so will say hi from time to time.
July 7, 2008 at 12:21 pm
Hi everyone! Hope your Monday is good. I’ll be on and off too, just wanted to say and yes, Nikki’s video is fabulous as usual.
July 7, 2008 at 12:27 pm

Congrats to those who were able to now attend Boston to see Kyle!! They are happy ladies!
July 7, 2008 at 4:58 pm
Awww I love the EBT 15 pic csd – thankyou! I just need it to be 3D so I can go give him a hug and stop those tears…
I got your email – you’ve got me on the edge of my seat now!! Guess I will have to wait for the 22nd. Thanks to you and kady for organising something – you’re all wonderful!
July 7, 2008 at 5:00 pm
You are welcome girl! It will be worth the wait, Kady can only do great work.
I just put the link to You Tube for the short film “Mookie’s Law” that Kyle worked on. It’s under the Kyle tag. I have laundry to fold so I’ll be back later.
July 7, 2008 at 5:28 pm
HI everyone! Home for lunch!
Thanks everyone for all the EEWWWWs! I’m still laughing!
Here’s a funny story: on the way to work this morning, the radio station I listen to, KFOG, gives Bday announcements to people who write in. The Djay said “Happy birthday to Kyle, who is 22 years old, but has the soul of an Ancient!” I know the age is wrong, but it still made me laugh! Anyway, just thought I’d share…
July 7, 2008 at 5:30 pm
hahah thats great cylver..
July 7, 2008 at 5:56 pm
Awww..our Kyle does have the soul of an ancient..but the heart of an angel!!
July 7, 2008 at 5:59 pm
I’m here!!
I watched the video this morning. I was reading ff all day!I will be watching wrestling tonight and wishing I was wrestling with Kyle!!
July 7, 2008 at 5:59 pm
thats right, He will be 24 next month Right?
July 7, 2008 at 6:00 pm
I think he is a year younger than my son Bruce, who will be 25 this month
July 7, 2008 at 6:03 pm
I have got to figure out how to work statistical distributions, This shit is driving me insane!!!
July 7, 2008 at 6:03 pm
Well I will Check with you all later!!
Love you!!
July 7, 2008 at 6:34 pm
Oh geeze the Moonlight fans are STILL hijacking the comments on Kristen’s Blood Ties article over on eonline.
July 7, 2008 at 7:13 pm
Hey Elmy–How are you today? I hope that you are going to post a chapter tonight. Waiting the baited breath. LOL
July 7, 2008 at 7:16 pm
What article on eonline? Do you have a link? I’d like to read the article…
July 7, 2008 at 7:18 pm
Ah Fitz you’ll probably hate me but I haven’t even started on it yet!! I may get some work done on it but today but having dinner with my husband tonight for our annversary which was yesterday (had had to work late last night so we couldnt go out) and tomorrow night I’m going out with friends for my 30th. I promise I will be chipping away at it though 🙂
I haven’t quite made up my mind where to take chapter 11 exactly yet 🙂
July 7, 2008 at 7:23 pm
Hi Vamp – it is an article published back in January called “Could Blood Ties Come Back?”
http://au.eonline.com/gossip/kristin/detail/index.jsp?uuid=f4893417-244d-461a-8b48-c5e6817daf56
July 7, 2008 at 7:27 pm
Oh OK Elmy…I thought maybe it was a new article. I’ve already read that one. Boy I about got excited there for a minute. Thought there was some new news or something.
July 7, 2008 at 7:45 pm
Sorry to get your hopes up!
Did any of you read Amaranthe’s post over on bloodlines regarding the email she got from James Jandrisch?
It specifically related to the soundtrack but I was just happy he mentioned the show still being in limbo – eg still not cancelled – thats good news in mind my mind.
http://www.bloodties-bloodlines.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=35249#35249
July 7, 2008 at 8:03 pm
Hey girls,
Thanks for sharing the info from James, Amaranthe’s. I have also been wanting the soundtrack from the show. If you speak with him again, let him know that we are all still hard at work and all want the soundtrack too!! Hey Elmy, I want to see H/V get married and her end up pregnant in this story as well. Only This time, she should have a boy and his name should be, Henry, Grayson Fitzroy, Henry Aaron Fitzroy, or Henry Tyler Fitzroy. Oh’ almost forgot, Michael Joseph Fitzroy. whichever sounds good to you!!
July 7, 2008 at 8:05 pm
Also, They should have at least two more smut scenes and the wedding should be huge with a blood Ties backdrop and theme music.
July 7, 2008 at 8:09 pm
Hiya Pokey – not sure if Amaranthe every stops by here. You may want to drop her a line over on bloodlines.
Not sure if I can go all domestic with Restless. I don’t know if I am a big fan of the happily ever after with babies and the marriage between Henry and Vicki – at least not in this story. They’re not normal people so if I ever do write ‘normal’ in to one of my stories in will be interwoven with some angsty dark storyline lol.
Love the names though hehe!
July 7, 2008 at 8:11 pm
haha the fantasies are running wild arent they pokey?
I’m totally planning for there to be more smut though.. I promise.
July 7, 2008 at 8:12 pm
Hi all, just a quick check in.. Cylver here is my EEEWWWWWWWWWWWW.. too. Things here are NOT good. Lets just say the evil that destroyed my SIL has now directed their evilness on my daughter with no regard for the baby either. One day soon, you may be writing me from a cell. and not a padded one.. which frankly would be a welcomed vacation. I’d give anything to go back a month and start over…maybe change things.. for them and a few for me too. Kinda like Vicki’s 5:55. Do it over till you can get it right. oh well as the song goes.. Everything changes. I know this has changed me. Sorry had to vent.. THANK you to those friends who have lifted me up these last couple days. I’ve needed it more than you know.
July 7, 2008 at 8:25 pm
Hi Raven – good to see you back – even if its just to vent. I think everyone here will be happy to listen to you vent as much as you need to!
July 7, 2008 at 8:34 pm
Going to Kentucky on Wed. Painters coming in Friday. Realtor came today and another tomorrow. Took Wes to doctors today to see about blood in stool. Sat there for two hours. Woke up at 4 am this morning (me) so will be in bed early tonight. Check in with you later. Son is going to start fireworks display in about 5 min.
July 7, 2008 at 8:43 pm
Hey Fitzsgirl – I just read my star sign for the week. Wonder if it’s referring to the delay in my fiction? hehe
“Mars conjuncts Saturn and brings delays to communication issues and writing and research projects. Advertising campaigns may be delayed or get a slow response. Whatever you have scheduled may not take place as you expected. If you can go with the flow, you’ll feel much better about everything.”
July 7, 2008 at 8:45 pm
Oh and I forgot the last line:
“Mercury moves into your sign on Thursday, helping you express yourself.”
So I guess that means I will have my next chapter well under way by Thursday hehe
July 7, 2008 at 9:02 pm
Hey all … have you seen the tie-in for the HBO series “Tru Blood”? Very clever. I wish they’d done something similar to promote BT. There is a full page ad in the “Entertainment Weekly”. Also a website link: http://www.trubeverage.com/ The ads have titles like Real Blood Is For Suckers, Friends Don’t Let Friends Drink Friends, etc.
July 7, 2008 at 9:15 pm
So, what is everybody reading this summer? I’m waiting for the new Kathy Reichs book and Stephenie Meyers’ Breaking Dawn to come out next month, but biding my time by reading LJ Smith’s “The Vampire Diaries”, which has been released in a two volume set, two complete novels in each volume. This series of stories, also about a high school girl who falls in love with a vampire, predates Meyers’ novels of a similar theme. I think both series are equally well done. If you haven’t read them, check them out.
July 7, 2008 at 9:26 pm
Hi raven. Glad to hear from you and you just vent all you want. I hope things clear up for you soon. We are all here to listen.
July 7, 2008 at 10:25 pm
Alright Elmy. If we must wait for the masterpiece. However, you definitely need to spend tonight romancing that husband of yours. Even Henry would want romance before work.
Raven–So good to hear from you. I am sorry that things are still not getting better. Grief is a crazy thing. It has it’s ups and downs. I hope things turn around for you and your daughter. All of you deserve a little happiness.
July 7, 2008 at 11:27 pm
Hi all!! Just wanted to stop in & say hello, so you don’t forget who I am–LOL!!! Seems that I’m never able to be on when everyone else is. Hope that everyone had a great long July 4th weekend.
July 7, 2008 at 11:28 pm
HI everyone! Getting a late start tonight. I had to get gas after work, then do some grocery shopping, etc. Thanks again for all the EWWWs today. I’ll pass them on to my sister when I see her next.
Raven, I”m so happy to hear from you. I hope things start getting better soon for you and your family. And by the way, feel free to vent any time you want. God knows I’ve done my share of venting here!
July 7, 2008 at 11:28 pm
HI COOPS!!
July 7, 2008 at 11:30 pm
Hi Fitzs – whats romance??? 🙂 I’ve forgotten lol
July 7, 2008 at 11:31 pm
Hi cylver and coopscats!
July 7, 2008 at 11:36 pm
VampsRUs, Thanks so much for posting the link for the TruBlood ad. It’s hilarious! I wish all advertising was this well done!
July 7, 2008 at 11:39 pm
Hi Elmy! Happy Anniversary and Happy Birthday! Hope you get some good presents, like an announcement from Sci-Fi, or TNT, or USA, or…
July 7, 2008 at 11:44 pm
Thanks cylver! If I have a cake with candles tomorrow you know what I will be wishing for!
July 7, 2008 at 11:51 pm
Not good Elmy. Reignite the spark tonight. Use some of those writing skills on him.
Hey Cylver and Coops— How are both of you?
July 7, 2008 at 11:59 pm
Hi Fitz! Frustrating day at work today. One of those Murphy’s Law kind of days. But everything finally came out OK. How are you?
July 8, 2008 at 12:06 am
Ahh we will see Fitzs.. just happy to have time with him – some nice dinner and a movie curled up on the couch is a good start!
He’s one of those world of warcraft addicts unfortunately..we all have strange hobbies I guess.
July 8, 2008 at 12:11 am
Hank update:
Heard from him a few times tonight. He had a huge falling out with a friend…and is in pretty bad shape right now. He wasn’t doing that good to start with and now….
Please keep him in your prayers tonight.
July 8, 2008 at 12:12 am
Hey to all of you too!! How is everyone tonight?? I’m on vacation this week, but not going anywhere, just hanging out being lazy–LOL!! spent the day w/ my oldest neice, just her & me. it was great!!
July 8, 2008 at 12:14 am
Oh I hate to hear that about Hank!! I hope things get better for him. Raven too!! Hang in there guys!!
July 8, 2008 at 12:14 am
Oh Cylver, here’s an EWWWWW..from me–LOL!!
July 8, 2008 at 12:25 am
Looks like I missed everyone again–LOL!! Going to head to bed now. Have a good one, & don’t let he vampires bite, except Henry. Hopefully catch ya’ll later!!
July 8, 2008 at 12:25 am
Rose, I’m so sorry to hear about Hank. I know he’s going through hell right now. Please tell him we’re all thinking about him, OK?
July 8, 2008 at 12:27 am
Thanks Coops, it was such a shock to see him standing there this morning. He wasn’t abusive or anything, but he was a thief and a liar, and dumping him was the best thing my sister ever did.
Hey, I just wrote a new opinion for Kyle on HN. I’ve never done one like this before. Tell me what you think!
July 8, 2008 at 1:06 am
cylver – why did he come around? To make trouble? pretending to try to make amends?
July 8, 2008 at 1:17 am
Actually, I didn’t talk to him long enough to find out. He asked for my sister, and wanted to know if she was still living around here. I said she wasn’t, and said I had to go and closed the door. He talked to the neighbor for a few minutes, and I found out later he told him that he was going to South America to be a missionary. Yeah, right!
July 8, 2008 at 2:21 am
sounds like a really honest guy… not
July 8, 2008 at 2:56 am
Would Guy like us to email him? I guess that would be a bit much. I hope he looks at this board and sees that we are thinking about him.
July 8, 2008 at 2:56 am
Night all and sweet Henry dreams.
July 8, 2008 at 5:20 am
Hey csd I emailed you my pic.
Thanks again for the Henry screen shot.. ahh.
July 8, 2008 at 8:09 am
Hey ladies hows it going this morning here in Indiana it’s overcast, warm and humid!
Clyver here is my EEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
Raven I hope things go better for you!
Just a BT thought, has anyone written to Shotime about BT???? I only ask because they have the Tudors and Dexter – and others (those are the ones I watch) but they appear to be successful. Thoughts anyone???
I mentioned yesterday on EBT 14 that my book BloodBank has arrived!!! So I’ve been reading – here and there.
My fellow BT friend Becka told me yesterday that she has my B-day present and not to buy any kyle movies (lol) – I’m thinking its Zerophilia – gotta see the shower scene!!!
later girls!
July 8, 2008 at 8:44 am
Morning all. Getting a late start today. I’m going to scroll back and read what I missed.
And we have two new pictures under members, Elmy and Fitzgirl. They are both beautiful!
July 8, 2008 at 8:45 am
Hey ladies I was over at Kyleschmidcentral.com and a member had posted these videos on youtube and I thought I’d share them with you all. ENJOY! Both of these are movies with Kyle in them – I think recent ones but I have not heard of them before reading this.
Thanks to Elisabet from Kyle’s Korner, for the posts.
July 8, 2008 at 8:51 am
Well i’m going to go and get some work done around the house…I have to vent here my 3 year old dishwasher just took a crap. It won’t drain. I can’t believe it – and no one likes to do dishes by hand! We need another EEwwwwww. The other one I had was like 11 years old when I gave it to someone and she still uses it – so now it’s like 15 years old – and my 3 year old one won’t work!!!! AAARRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
Ok I’m done 🙂 LOL
July 8, 2008 at 8:51 am
Aww you’re too kind chrissy 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 8:53 am
tweety – I still have to do dishes by hand *sigh* The joys of living in a rental apartment where you can’t install your own dishwasher 😦
July 8, 2008 at 8:53 am
Elmy take a look on the home page, got a surprise for you!
July 8, 2008 at 8:54 am
I prefer dishes by hand. I have a diswasher my parents got me for Christmas a few years ago and used it all of about a month. I didn’t like the water spots.
July 8, 2008 at 8:56 am
Aww chrissy that is SO sweet of you! Thankyou so much!
July 8, 2008 at 8:57 am
Assuit, it can’t hurt to send him an email if you want to. I don’t know if he’s been coming and reading here or not but I know he checks his email.
July 8, 2008 at 8:57 am
Oh Elmy I’m feeling your pain – I shouldn’t complain – I’m just spoiled. I really shouldn’t complain b/c some members from my church just finished trips to other countries – to help out. Some of the conditions these people live in is just terrible – they were estatic because we bought beds for them and their kids. We are very fortunate.
Dishwasher or not I’m still lucky… 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 8:58 am
We love to have a reason for a party around here! And that’s what family does for each other. Because of the time difference I decided to post now and hope to get the right day!
July 8, 2008 at 8:59 am
LOL it wouldn’t be so bad if my boys would rinse their cups and reuse them so I don’t have to wash 55 cups every day!!!
July 8, 2008 at 8:59 am
Hey tweety I had that problem too. I solved by making them use paper cups!
July 8, 2008 at 9:00 am
Well all I need to finish watching History of Violence with our favorite young man – sooooo I’m going to do that and fold the mountain of laundry I have!!! I’ll check it later!
July 8, 2008 at 9:00 am
Guys make sure you look at the post on the home page I put up for Elmy. We need something good around here.
July 8, 2008 at 9:01 am
Not a bad idea cds1 – I think I’ll try that!
July 8, 2008 at 9:02 am
It can’t hurt Tweety. Easier to throw them away then wash them.
July 8, 2008 at 9:03 am
Well its 11pm on Tues 8th so you’re only one hour off – I’m not complaining! It was a truly nice thing you have done 🙂 You have all been so great to chat to since I joined here only a few weeks ago now 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 9:07 am
You are welcom girl! You already have a few posts there so make sure you read them. Have a great birthday.
And now that people keep mentioning laundry and dishes I better do mine. I’ll be back later!
July 8, 2008 at 9:10 am
Well I am smiling now 🙂 🙂 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 9:16 am
Hope you have a good day Elmy!
July 8, 2008 at 9:22 am
Thanks tweety.
I’d better get to bed and get some sleep. Still have to go to work tomorrow then going out for birthday dinner and drinks with a big group of friends so it should be lots of fun 🙂
Night all! Thankyou again chrissy!
July 8, 2008 at 10:01 am
OHHHHH I’m watching History of Violence and I just saw our Kyle – get the S— beat out of him. Yes I know, his character is quite the jerk in this movie – but still ….. lol
July 8, 2008 at 10:46 am
Wow, it was busy here earlier, now it’s quiet.
July 8, 2008 at 11:14 am
Hey Cylver—Sorry I missed you yesterday. Hate to hear about your day. Hopefully today will be better.
Elmy–How was the anniversary? Good I hope.
Good morning or afternoon to everyone else.
July 8, 2008 at 12:19 pm
Hi everyone! HAPPY BDAY ELMY!!
We’re back up at RL! We got 610 votes yesterday, and are about 2,500 votes away from Jag.
I’ve had a long work week. Out of the last nine days, I was only off on the 4th. SO, I should have a lot of time off coming soon. Tomorrow and Thurs for sure, and hopefully more besides.
July 8, 2008 at 12:20 pm
Thanks Fitz!
July 8, 2008 at 12:24 pm
Me again! Hey, I was just looking at the numbers for HN, and I saw that Kyle is just one point behind October Road! So please, everyone post opinions, react and post comments. Let’s see our Kyle move up!
By the way, did you get a chance to see my opinion from last night? I thought it was fun! Oh, in case you don’t know, my HN name is Sylvie.
July 8, 2008 at 12:30 pm
Hello! EVERYONE…..’How is everybody doing today???’ look, I have three questions: 1.)Are we really going to support TRUE BLOOD from now until it makes it’s debut in September??? 2.)Why is it that FOREVER KNIGHT & KINDRED:THE EMBRACED have not, are not and is still NOT in the Daily Top 40 Poll on RICH LABONTE??? 3.)I know that their are some BLOOD TIES fans that are THE TUDORS FANS here, but do you gals and a gent know if their are any of the TUDORS FANS-FANS of BLOOD TIES??? I was just wondering, not trying to break any windows here, just wanted to get a vibe from you all about stuff, THAT’S ALL…..PEACE!!!………………… AZITA OUT
July 8, 2008 at 1:29 pm
Hey bridget, I gotta say I’m kinda scared off of new shows right now – I couldn’t take it if I got into another new show right now and it got cancelled after one season. Maybe that’s the wrong attitude to have. Also, BT was my favorite ever all time love of vampire shows – and I really miss it. I don’t know if I can get into another one… But I’ll check it out and think it over.
Cheers!
July 8, 2008 at 2:00 pm
Hiya bridget..I can only speak for myself but my answers to your questions are:
I wont be supporting or even watching True Blood,i am not a fan of Forever Knight or Kindred The Embraced so know nothing about their rankings at RL and i am not a fan of The Tudors either in fact i can’t bare it..lol..not much use am i;)
I have to say that any and all my spare time is spent doing Blood Ties and Kyle stuff. I know, i’m a hopeless case! 🙂 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 5:18 pm
Morning everyone!
I’m going to start with a sappy moment to thankyou for all being such wonderful kind souls. This is my first birthday without my mum around to make a birthday fuss and I absolutely miss her to bits! You have all helped to fill that void and I really want to thank you for all the beautiful birthday wishes 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 5:22 pm
Ok now to catch up on some other comments:
Fitzsgirl – had a wonderful anniversary thankyou! Lots of quality time with hubby 🙂 Love your pic also! I still think its great to see what everyone looks like so thats why I returned the favour.
Bridget – I will definitely watch true blood… but I’m going to feel guilty about it 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 5:25 pm
Elmy, I hate to say it but I know how you feel. I lost my dad not long ago and it was strange to not get that phone call or bithday card in the mail. But you have a new extended family from all over the world to celebrate with you today!
I was just over at the official BT site, looking for any news, and saw BT is going to start in several places. Seems they are all like Lifetime though. One is at 12:30am one at 1:00am. I just know TONS of people will see it at those times.
http://www.bloodtiestv.com/
July 8, 2008 at 5:29 pm
Thanks csd. I think christmas last year was much more difficult than today..but feels strange none the less. My dad is out of the country but my brother is going to catch up with me on the weekend so thats nice.
Regarding the official site – surprised they haven’t mentioned aus there – wonder if they don’t know..
July 8, 2008 at 5:29 pm
I have a huge favor to ask my BT family… the florist where I work has been nominated for Best Wedding Flowers in a local tv station’s poll. Not that I’m looking forward to making more boutonnieres and corsages, but could you take a moment and vote for us? Here’s the link:
http://wdiv.cityvoter.com/weber-s-floral-gifts/biz/47440
Thanks everyone…have a good evening!
July 8, 2008 at 5:29 pm
Hi everyone! I can’t watch TrueBlood, because I don’t get HBO, and can’t afford it. I really want to watch it, though, because I love the books! I know a few people who will be watching, and hopefully someone can tape them for me.
July 8, 2008 at 5:33 pm
Oh hey cylver – left you a review on haunted last night… finally!!
July 8, 2008 at 5:35 pm
You got it night, anything to help.
July 8, 2008 at 5:36 pm
Hi all, Hey Cylver,
I don’t get HBO either so don’t feel bad. Have you gotten any further on Haunted? How about the other stories? I am gonna go check it out. Need my V/H fix for the day! Elmy, I wrote you a poem, hope you like it! Its on your birthday page! be back soon!
July 8, 2008 at 5:41 pm
Got to start dinner for the family, I would rather be here with you guys!
Night, I voted for you!
Elmy, have a GREAT day!
Back later everyone.

Gotta go back to work now. Be back tonight!
July 8, 2008 at 6:14 pm
Thankyou Mary – loved the poem! Gotta go finish getting ready for work now. Will chat to you all later 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 6:53 pm
Got a problem here guys, so you all be good. I’ll see you tomorrow morning.
July 8, 2008 at 7:08 pm
Hi ladies I posted this message earlier and I just wanted to be sure everyone here had a chance to see it…
Hey ladies I was over at Kyleschmidcentral.com and a member had posted these videos on youtube and I thought I’d share them with you all. ENJOY! Both of these are movies with Kyle in them – I think recent ones but I have not heard of them before reading this.
Thanks to Elisabet from Kyle’s Korner, for the posts.
ALSO aniteattheopera I voted for you!!!
July 8, 2008 at 7:12 pm
I don’t know guys I’m so torn about true blood I know I expressed this earlier but I really don’t want to run the risk of getting into another show and having it pulled again – BT was my alltime favorite (never missed it, my life revolved around the scheduleing) show. Partly I would feel guilty about watching another vampire show. However, I need to fill that void that BT left, so I don’t know I’ll think about it…
July 8, 2008 at 8:19 pm
Alright guys this is my last post before calling it a night. I’m working on something VERY special for my BT girls and guy, I hope to have it for you in a few days. I think you’ll like it. I know I will!
See you all tomorrow, be good around here, and dream sweet dreams of your BT sweetheart.
July 8, 2008 at 8:20 pm
Night chrissy! Sounds interesting!
July 8, 2008 at 8:25 pm
Evening everyone, sorry I haven’t been able to get on before now.
Happy Birthday, and here’s my EWWWW too.
Hope Henry and his friend can get things worked out. They are both great people and I know they would both be happier if they can.
July 8, 2008 at 8:32 pm
Night crissy, sending you e-mail in a few.
July 8, 2008 at 8:35 pm
Hi all. This is my first chance I’ve had all day to come here. I read the posts and I don’t think I can get into True Blood. I am just spoiled on Henry I guess. I’ll watch some of it and give it a try but I doubt I’ll let myself get caught up in another new show. I’ll probably feel like I am cheating on Henry. I never did like Forever Knight and I never watched Kindred. Blood Ties is perfect and I can’t imagine watching any other vamp show right now.
July 8, 2008 at 8:51 pm
Gonna try to get house on the market in (Argh) two weeks.
July 8, 2008 at 8:58 pm
Hi vamphoney, I’m not sure I can get into any new shows either. Besides which I’m not sure if I’ll even have time to watch anything for the next few weeks.
July 8, 2008 at 9:09 pm
Ok need to call it a night. Another long day today and even busier tomorrow. Sis-in-law is coming to get Dad so don’t have to take two days to go to Kentucky.
Will try to check in more tomorrow.
July 8, 2008 at 9:20 pm
Hello All ~
July 8, 2008 at 9:24 pm
Hi BTF / Bye BTF
Hello Vitch 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 9:24 pm
Well Pooh..Missed everyone.
Well hope everyone is well and had a GREAT 4th of July !!
~ v ~
July 8, 2008 at 9:25 pm
Oops…, didn’t see ya elm..SORRY
July 8, 2008 at 9:27 pm
No probs vitch.. its kinda quiet in here.. I’m lurking while pretending to work
July 8, 2008 at 9:29 pm
BTF that’s too bad that you are not coming to KY. If you did, we could have finally met face to face. However, I am sure that you are glad not to have to make the drive.
Evening all!!!
Chrissy—Looking forward to your surprise.
July 8, 2008 at 9:30 pm
Heya Fitzgirl and Elmy.
Just got through getting the New Orleans JumpCon Tix.
WOO HOO…Am so EXCITED !!!
July 8, 2008 at 9:32 pm
I just went and checked out the pictures. How wonderful to see everyone and put a name to a face.
Chrissy—You look just like a model in your lovely photo and so do you Elmy. Simply beautiful. Of course, all of the other lovely ladies are fantastic looking as well.
July 8, 2008 at 9:34 pm
Hey Vitch–I am going to Boston, but also thinking about attending New Orleans and meeting up with some friends. Maybe I will see you there.
July 8, 2008 at 9:34 pm
Hi Vitch, Fitzsgirl and Elmy. Vitch, I am going to the Dallas JumpCon and already have my tickets too. I’m like you and sooo excited. Too bad I have to wait till November.
July 8, 2008 at 9:35 pm
Let me know if you decide to go. Nik, Sam and T are all going.
July 8, 2008 at 9:36 pm
Poor Nik was thrown when he cancelled ..where was it? Pittsburg?
July 8, 2008 at 9:36 pm
Your still ahead of me Vamp….Dec for New Orleans. But hey…already went to Mega so I can be patient.
At least THIS go round I know what to expect !!!!
July 8, 2008 at 9:39 pm
Vitch all of you that got to go to Mega are so lucky. It just was not possible for me to go at that time but I am counting my lucky stars now…LOL!!
July 8, 2008 at 9:43 pm
My son say’s to consider Mega an eye OPENER for JumpCon.
July 8, 2008 at 9:47 pm
I heard that JumpCons are more structured than Mega was and I hope it is not too structured that Kyle and all of us don’t have as much fun.
July 8, 2008 at 9:47 pm
haha thanks fitz. I was a bit glammed up that night for a christmas party last year so rest assured I don’t always look like that hehe.
July 8, 2008 at 9:48 pm
I’m hoping we’ll get the BT gang down here on the sci-fi convention circuit once the show starts in aus 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 9:50 pm
He said the opposite. Well sort of. Mega may have been a bit more lax…but my son said WAY more freaky things at JumpCon. He say’s you can catch it on Sci-Fi sometimes.
I actually saw a guy in his UNDERWEAR on a dog leash being led by his GF ??
Strange didn’t begin to EVEN touch on the convention.- LOL
July 8, 2008 at 9:52 pm
HaHa Vitch!! Sounds like fun to me!! I can’t wait!!!
July 8, 2008 at 9:53 pm
I had to ask one of the guys walking around who the BIG green guy was.
LOL…Halo.
Kyle DEF knows how to work a crowd.
July 8, 2008 at 9:54 pm
Hey Elmy. None of us do. My picture was from one of my marketing promos, but hey it was the only one I had available while away from my home computer.
Vitch–I am really hoping to go if schedule permits. If I do go, ccrulz is going with me and as are some of the ladies at KSC (Shannara and Elizabet). Shannara will be at Boston, as well. I can’t believe just one more week. I am getting excited.
July 8, 2008 at 9:55 pm
I wouldn’t have know either. I heard Kyle was quite the flirty charmer…can’t wait to find that out for myself.
July 8, 2008 at 9:56 pm
Triple check your camera. Mine DIED and on Sunday the last day I was able to borrow one.
July 8, 2008 at 9:56 pm
VERY flirty and FUN !!!
July 8, 2008 at 9:57 pm
Honestly he was VERY fun and DOWN to earth !!
ALso FLIRTY..he worked the crowds FLAWLESSLY !
July 8, 2008 at 9:58 pm
I think I’ll take 2 cameras just in case. Hubby is going so he can take pictures.
July 8, 2008 at 9:58 pm
You gals will have to take a lot of photos and share 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 9:59 pm
Oh now you got me all a shiver with anticipation vitch. How am I supposed to sleep tonight..LOL!!!
July 8, 2008 at 9:59 pm
I think I recognized like 4 or 5 characters walking around.
I was like OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH Chewbaka..I know HIM !!!!
LOL
Course the fact that I also remember when the lassie reruns were on…Timmy ( can’t remember his REAL name) was really SWEET.
He got a Lassie puppy for his 8th B-Day
July 8, 2008 at 10:00 pm
I hope Kyle shaves for you guys hehe
July 8, 2008 at 10:01 pm
Kyle, Timmy ( real Name?) Gil and Erin (Buck Rogers), Steve Bacic were all really nice.
Some of the others had the attitudes you suspected they would have.
Courteous…but that was about it!
July 8, 2008 at 10:02 pm
I might know a few more than that cause I am kind of a scifi freak too. Jon Provost I think was Timmy.
July 8, 2008 at 10:03 pm
Well Timmy/Jon was sweet too.
Steve HOT.
kyle Hot and Funny!!!
July 8, 2008 at 10:04 pm
You will have a BALL !!!!!
But you may be MOUTH GAPING…
I know I was!!
July 8, 2008 at 10:05 pm
Great combo in a man hot and funny!!
July 8, 2008 at 10:07 pm
I just hope I don’t make a big fool of myself by drooling or going mute or any of about 100 other stupid things I could do.
July 8, 2008 at 10:08 pm
Now I am really getting excited. I had hears from others that Kyle was quite the flirt. He likes to charm the ladies, but who can resist with those looks and bubbling personality.
July 8, 2008 at 10:09 pm
Not me!!!!
July 8, 2008 at 10:11 pm
OK I’m getting totally jealous now 🙂
July 8, 2008 at 10:12 pm
Well I got to head over to HN pretty soon so I am going to go soak in some bubbles for a little while first. I’ll say night-night to ya’ll and wish everyone sweet Henry dreams. And after this conversation about Kyle I sure I’ll be having some of those. Hugs…
July 8, 2008 at 10:13 pm
Hi just getting ready to log off. Will be in Kentucky again I’m sure. And still hoping to get to Dallas in Nov.
Hank said to tell everyone hi.
July 8, 2008 at 10:15 pm
We are putting house on market in two weeks so if I don’t end up in a padded room I’ll try to be here at least in the evenings. Our realtor is Irish, I mean IRISH. Brogue and all kinda ‘gosh and begorah ya’ll’. It’s a hoot.
July 8, 2008 at 10:17 pm
Oh and tweety and vitch, love the avatars.
Will check in in the morning, about 6 or 7 am.
If anyone talks to Cylver tell her I’ll still get on long enough to post puzzles for her and will check e-mail etc.
Hugs to ya’ll.
July 8, 2008 at 10:18 pm
BTF when you are make sure that you stop by and see me. I always love to entertain.
July 8, 2008 at 10:18 pm
How did it go with the company from Europe, been meaning to ask.
July 8, 2008 at 10:19 pm
Oops..Hubby needs me to set up the universal remote AGAIN!!
Nite all !!!
July 8, 2008 at 10:20 pm
Hey Vitch I’m impressed. I can barely work my VCR.
July 8, 2008 at 10:24 pm
Falling asleep at the keyboard so will call it a night. Have a good day to those in the UK etc. in different time zones. And have a good night to all the others.
Hugs to all.
July 8, 2008 at 10:26 pm
Hugs back.
July 8, 2008 at 10:30 pm

July 8, 2008 at 10:41 pm

July 8, 2008 at 10:46 pm
Hi everyone! Pokey, are you still around? WooHoo! I finally get two days off! BTF, I’ll be posting a puzzle tomorrow, now that I’ll have some time to look for a good quote.
July 8, 2008 at 10:49 pm
I’ve been catching up with the conversation, sounds like I missed a fun time. Well, tomorrow…
I met Jon Provost once. They had a mini Sci-Fi convention at our Mall, there were people dressed as Klingons and other aliens, and Jon Provost was there. He was really nice! We chatted about our kids (mine was a toddler at the time and he had a new-born daughter) and he was just a nice, down to earth guy! And he still looked like Timmy.
July 8, 2008 at 10:59 pm
That’s funny Cylver.
July 8, 2008 at 11:48 pm
Are you still here Fitz? How’s is going?
July 9, 2008 at 12:17 am
I’m still here cylver.. but you’re probably gone now?
July 9, 2008 at 1:11 am
I have been lurking in and out, chatting with ccrulz on im. What about you cylver?
July 9, 2008 at 2:00 am
I”m back! I just wrote a new opinion for Kyle on HN. It’s a continuation of the one I wrote yesterday (as Sylvie) Go look and tell me what you think!
July 9, 2008 at 7:35 am
Hey Cylver,
I am ready for more Haunted!! How are you? I missed you yesterday, I posted a new entrythis morning called “The power to Transcend Forever” I hope you all like it.

Love pokey/Mary
July 9, 2008 at 7:37 am
Morning all! I’m trying to get my eyes open and it’s not working real well. I didn’t sleep good and just when I was asleep the girls got into it. So I need LOTS of coffee today. I’m taking the kids to grandmas this afternoon but I won’t be gone long if you need anything. I’ll peek back in after more coffee. Hope everyone has a great day.
Oh Elmy, I hope you had a great time at your birthday dinner!
July 9, 2008 at 9:35 am
*yawn* hi everyone… home from dinner..27mins of my birthday left and I’ve had a GREAT day!
Ate too much..drank just enough.. its been a really nice birthday and you all helped to make it so 🙂
July 9, 2008 at 9:37 am
And hi Pokey.. chapter 11 of restless is coming as soon as possible I promise.. I have a few more festivities to get through this week (hubby’s 30th tomorrow!!) but will have time to write in the next few days 🙂
July 9, 2008 at 9:54 am
Morning everyone. Dads test was good, no blood in stool, just too much iron.
Glad you had a good birthday Elmy, it’s just starting here today so celebrate it again.
Gonna be a crazy day, anyone know how to get a clone? Feel like I need to be in several places at once.
Already on second pot of coffee. Weeeeee
July 9, 2008 at 9:55 am
Will post thought for today and then off to errands and packing. I’ll check in again hopefully around noon.
July 9, 2008 at 10:02 am
morning btf – I like that idea.. today was a lot of fun 🙂 Going to get to sleep now that my birthday is officially over 🙂
Night!!
July 9, 2008 at 10:09 am
Night, todays thought is ‘what religion is your bra’?
July 9, 2008 at 11:14 am
Hey there! VAMPIRE TROOPS…..’How are all of you this fine morning???’ look, I’ve read all of your comments and opinions and I just have to say…..I UNDERSTAND-AND FEEL WHAT YOU LADIES AND A GENTLEMEN ARE FEELING(except for the whole sense of BETRAYAL thingy towards KYLE, CHRISTINA, DYLAN & anybody else involved with BLOOD TIES)!!! But, and this goes first for me too, MINES & OURS mentality and attitude about supporting other shows, especially vampire shows, has got to change. I was told of the the very thing, that you gals are saying, so I expected your answers to be exactly what he said they would be. I think that’s the reason why our vampire shows keep getting the AXE, is because instead of the fanbases supporting each other series, we instead go after each other and go on the warpath and act TERRITORIAL about one another shows. And like I said, I’m GUILTY of that too, no wonder there’s tension between US and the MOONLIGHT FANBASE. All the fanbases forgot that we are in this TOGETHER, and we are scratching our head and left wondering WHY??? there is not so much respect and interest in this horror genre/medium. We will continue to be IGNORED, if we don’t change our outlook on the shows and on the fanbases that are devoted to them. I’M SORRY! if I sound preachy and fussy, it just that I’ve been thinking about this for awhile now and it just frustrates me that the only two series from this medium that were major, big hits were BUFFY & ANGEL. And that right there should make us cry out, THAT’S NOT ENOUGH…..WE DESERVE MORE RESPECT THAN THIS…..WE DESERVE, NO! WE DEMAND BETTER! That’s all I’m saying, I just think is time, that we put our swords and shields down and join forces and try to turn this thing around. Seriously peeps, we are not getting anywhere, with the KINDRED:THE EMBRACED FANS fighting with the FOREVER KNIGHT FANS, the ANGEL FANS fighting with the BUFFY FANS, the DARK SHADOWS ’91 FANS fighting with the original DARK SHADOWS FANS…..and we, the BT FANS for damn sure are not getting anywhere constantly fighting with the ML FANBASE. So forget what I said about ‘cussing’ them out over at the E!Online website. Okay, I’ve dribbled enough, I just want the horror/vampire genre to be a force to be reckon with, I want this genre to be sought after the way these talent-themed shows, game-themed shows, dance-themed shows, etc.,etc., are. And I really believe that it would suit our best interest, if we were to form a massive vampire unification amongst all the present and past vamp series. And it has to start with us watching and supporting TRUE BLOOD, and believe me when I say, ‘we need it-just as much as it needs us’. But that’s just me, I’m living in a fool’s paradise, I KNOW. “YOU PEEPS TAKE CARE…..GOD BLESS…..AZITA OUT!!!……………..”
July 9, 2008 at 11:45 am
Morning all..Elmy I am glad you had a wonderful birthday. Azita-you are entitaled to your opinion but I simply can’t support show that I don’t like. I love vampire shows but I really and truly did not like Buffy or Angel. They were too “teeny” for me. I didn’t care for Forever Knight and I never saw Kindred. I tried to like Moonlight but there again it was the same old thing again. I haven’t made up my mind yet about True Blood. Blood Ties was different and that is why I love it so much.
All genre type shows have trouble staying on TV not just vamp shows. It has been this way for quite some time now. The networks are aiming at a “younger demographic” meaning the under 29 set. These people are too young to remember when TV was really a great thing. To them all this reality garbage is all they have known for so long that they probably think it is grand.
If the ratings system (talking about Nielsen now) were to be upgraded and modernized it would probably help. There is no way they get correct ratings from this antiquated system. I don’t see how 1 Nielsen family can correctly represent thousands of people. What that household watches may not be what I watch. It is an unfair system.
OK I’ll get off my soap box now too and wish everyone a great day. I’ll check back in sometimes. Hugs.
July 9, 2008 at 12:05 pm
Vamphoney, I think you hit the nail on the head, particularly with respect to the godawful rating system. You can stay on that soap box as long as your little heart desires 😉
July 9, 2008 at 12:32 pm
Just wanted to pop in really quick & say hello to all!! Hope that you are having a great day. Still just kicking back on my vacation this week & enjoying life. I’ll check in later, as I’m not sure if anyone is on right now.
July 9, 2008 at 1:02 pm
Hi Bridget, feel i must address your post,of course i can only speak for myself but i see nothing in mine or anyone elses post about being in conflict with moonlight or any other show for that matter,nor do i read about any tension or territorialism about our own show, or going after any
other shows fanbase..
back to speaking for myself…
You asked a question of, would we be supporting and watching another new vampire show..I have already explained in my earlier post that i do not have time in my life for supporting other shows it does not mean i am in conflict with them or against their fanbase, i am in truth indifferent to them.. i don’t watch tv, i have no interest in any other shows be they vampire genre or not!
I am going to leave it there before i start ranting.
p.s if you were told what our reaction would be by Kevin (which i actually find insulting)then why did you post, then get upset when you got that very reaction.
July 9, 2008 at 1:17 pm
Hi everyone!Hope everyone has a great day today, and Elmy, I hope you had a wonderful Bday. Also, happy 30th to your husband!
As for BT/ML, while I enjoyed Moonlight, I don’t really miss it. I do look forward to seeing TrueBlood (I have a friend who will be kind enough to tape it for me) mostly because I love the books, and I’m anxious to see how they translate to TV (god I hope that Bill is better than what I’ve seen so far on Youtube. So far, me no likey!
July 9, 2008 at 1:20 pm
But, in answer to the question of whether I’ll be supporting TrueBlood, does that mean will I be writing fanfic, posting on message boards, scouring Youtube for new videos, writing postcards in the sad event that it too gets cancelled? Probably not. There’s only one show that gets that honor!
July 9, 2008 at 1:39 pm
Hi all! Thanks for voting for my work. I apologize for having to sign in to vote…I should have mentioned that in my post.
I’d love to stick around today, but I’ve got an illustration I’ve got to work on today, as well as start getting things around for vacation next week. And it’s finally sunny here and the pool is calling my name!
Cylver, I finally finished the Twilight series over the weekend. (Long car ride for the 4th) I’m looking forward to the new book and already have a “hold” from the library.
Hope everyone has a great day and I’ll check back later.
July 9, 2008 at 1:47 pm
Hi Nite! I want to reread Eclipse before Breaking Dawn comes out. I loved the “wake-up call” that Bella got from the other new vamp. I can’t wait to see what happens next. Our Borders is having a midnight party for it when it comes out. I’m not sure if I’ll go yet or not. It would be a blast to see everyone dressed up!
July 9, 2008 at 1:48 pm
OK, I just left a message and it didn’t post…
July 9, 2008 at 2:09 pm
OK, there it is!
July 9, 2008 at 2:20 pm
afternoon, all!
I just got home. I have ch. 7 to do( finding the normal curve) and then I have a 30 problem final project to get started on for the final in statistics. We have 3 weeks left and I am going crazy! Help!!!!
July 9, 2008 at 2:22 pm
Elmy,
I hope your birthday was Fangtastic!! Oh” happy birthday to your hubby as well!! I am lookingforward to more smut!! The weekend is near and its time for more V/H love sessions!!!
July 9, 2008 at 3:02 pm
I was just over at HN, and I saw that Kyle gained 3%, but so did October Road, so Kyle is still exactly one point behind! Grrr! So everyone keep posting opinions, comments and reactions. I just wrote another Kyle opinion, but I’ll have to wait until later tonight to post it. My HN name is Sylvie. In a few days I’m thinking of combining them into a single story for TB. What do you think?
July 9, 2008 at 3:14 pm
Hi everybody, I am back from vacation and have been swapmed with work since monday. We went to south carolina with my son and his girlfriend and he proposed while we were there. we had sent them inside to mix up a batch of margaritas and they came back out engaged. my son said he was waiting for the right time and couldn’t find one so he thought then was just as good a time as any…such a romantic. I wanted to share my good news with all my Blood Ties friends..
July 9, 2008 at 3:20 pm
Hi Vampfan! Congratulations to your son and future daughter-in-law!
July 9, 2008 at 3:30 pm
Thanks, they have been together for 3 years and bought a condo together last year so I figured a ring would come along soon enough. He will be 26 on monday so I think they both know what they want in life. we are going to start checking out wedding halls tonight. gonna need a big one..possibly 400 guests (ouch)
July 9, 2008 at 3:50 pm
Welcome back vampfan and congrats on impending mother-in-lawness!!
July 9, 2008 at 4:07 pm
I am so excited. we love her. she is a nice Italian girl named Lisa. and since I’m a nice Italian girl named Lisa whats not to love…
July 9, 2008 at 4:22 pm
LOL!! vampfan…
July 9, 2008 at 4:24 pm
I just read all about everybody at the US tab. I will have to come up with something original about me.
July 9, 2008 at 4:59 pm
*groan* too much wine and not enough sleep make elmy feel bad in the morning 😦
July 9, 2008 at 5:10 pm
Poor Elmy…but hey, it was worth it, right?
July 9, 2008 at 5:35 pm
cylver – definitely!!
July 9, 2008 at 6:44 pm
Hey Cylver/Sylvie
That sounds strange, but interesting on the story. I am on the phone with the IRS. the waiting game. They have the wrong initial for my middle name and I just want to change it. It is A and they have Q.
July 9, 2008 at 6:47 pm
this is rediculous.
I can’t even get anyone on the phone!!
July 9, 2008 at 6:48 pm
gonna go read more ff.
July 9, 2008 at 6:52 pm
Hi everyone, I haven’t been on today – life is not good here. I don’t know if many of you remember but when I joined this site I had stated that I use to be on the LT board but I hadn’t been on in a long time b/c my husband had been extreamly ill. He had been in and out of the hospial for 5 months, we almost lost him, he saw many specialists who couldn’t figure out the problem and it took a specialist from University of Chicago to figure out the problem. Well…. all was going well with his health until now – he came home late last night and said he was having episodes again. (His bloodpressure goes up and down within a matter of minutes, he’ll be at 154/108 and it’ll drop to 95/56 in like 5 minutes, and he passes out) Well he was able to stay up yesterday but he said 3 times he got so woozy that he had to hold onto something to keep from falling, and that’s not good! Especially not for his job because he’s an HazMat Emergency Responder ( kind of like a fireman but instead of fire he deals with hazardous chemicals). Anyway, I’m so scared I don’t want to lose him, or go through that again. We are in financial devistation from the last time he was sick – I mean 5 months off of work would put any family in financial ruin not to mention the medical bills that are comming in. I’m very scared, we have been married 11 years, and 2008 has been horrible. But he got back to work in May and his company is training him for a promotion and now this…Sorry I’ll stop going on I’m just in shock and scared – I thought it was all behind us. So if I’m not on for a few days you’ll know why.
Everyone take care and I’ll keep you all posted!
**Hugs**
July 9, 2008 at 6:57 pm
Talk to you all later!
“OH” I sang at school today, and the principle wants me to sing at the next grill out we have!! isn’t that awesome!!!
July 9, 2008 at 7:08 pm
Hi Tweety,
just checking in a read your post.. I’ll keep you and your husband in my prayers. Hopefully its nothing to serious and he just needs to have his meds adjusted. I sure know about the financial burden of medical expenses. Hang in there. These girls here are the best support system. I know that from personal experience. Keep us posted..ok?
July 9, 2008 at 7:09 pm
Happy Belated Birthday Elmy..hope it was great!
July 9, 2008 at 7:11 pm
Tweety, has your husband been tested for Vaso-Vagal Syndrome? I think I spelled it right. My ex-husband had it, and he had the same symptom of a sudden decrease in blood pressure, plus nausea and fainting. He passed out behind the wheel a couple of times. Really scary stuff! Anyway, they finally installed a pacemaker in his heart, and that solved the problem. What made them finally decide to install it was when he flatlined right in front of me in the emergency room. They installed the pacemaker the next day, and he was much better afterwards!
July 9, 2008 at 7:12 pm
Hi Raven! Good to see you here!
July 9, 2008 at 7:14 pm
Hey cylver. How are you?
July 9, 2008 at 7:17 pm
Doing all right, thanks. The air qauality here is horrible because of all the fires. The sky is a yucky, hazy gray-blue. They’re recommending that people don’t even go outside unless they have to. Which gives me an excuse to be here vegging at the computer!
July 9, 2008 at 7:25 pm
Are you close to all those fires???? I hope not I heard of all the evacuations tonight on the news… terrible.
July 9, 2008 at 7:30 pm
Hey tweety we’ll be thinking of you.
Thanks for the bday wishes Raven – hope things are a little more bearable for you at the moment.
July 9, 2008 at 7:32 pm
Bearly Elmy..just needed an escape for a bit. That and some wine. LOL
July 9, 2008 at 7:32 pm
No, I’m not close to anything here, but you know, all it takes is one idiot tossing a cigarette butt out a car window…there’s a huge fire in Big Sur which is barely contained yet. That’s several hours drive away, but the smoke smell and the haze is just everywhere. A few days ago, at dusk, the sun was a orangy-red disk. Awful!
July 9, 2008 at 7:34 pm
Barely.. see can’t spell worth a darn too.
July 9, 2008 at 7:35 pm
urgh… wine.. no more wine… wine bad.. head hurts.. can’t work.. hehe
July 9, 2008 at 7:37 pm
cylver you’ll be happy to know your fires were worthy enough to make the news here.
Unfortunately aussies are primarily focussed on which athelete will or wont be at the olympics (sports mad country that this is – I will never understand it) but world events do actually make the news every now and then.
July 9, 2008 at 7:43 pm
Tweety I’ll remember you in my prayers and raven I am so glad you are here. I hope everything is getting better for everyone. Cylver I hope the fires get no ways near you. Seems like there are fires there every year now. We have problems with the cigarette butt throwers here too. My brother is one of them. I swear you can give him an ashtray and he will still flick that butt in the yard. Geesh!!!
July 9, 2008 at 7:49 pm
Thanks Elmy! I kind of wish we weren’t so newsworthy right now!
July 9, 2008 at 7:50 pm
Well I can feel your pain with fires cylver.. have seen many many fires living in aus. I was evacuated once when I still lived at home with my parents.
July 9, 2008 at 7:53 pm
That must have been scary. Did everything turn out OK?
July 9, 2008 at 7:56 pm
yeah all was good in the end – the wind changed direction thankfully so we could come back home pretty quick. I remember we had just about everything we could possibly get out of the house shoved in to three cars 🙂
Had the curtains off the walls.. gutters plugged up and filled with water. Can still remember that smell of smoke though.. and the colour of the sky. I remember big chunks of embers landing at my feet. kinda scary when the police show up telling you to get out.
July 9, 2008 at 8:00 pm
Hey all. How is everyone this evening? So glad to see you here Raven. We’ve missed you.
July 9, 2008 at 8:01 pm
Just a little scary! I guess I’ve been lucky, nothing like that has happened yet.
Hey Pokey, are you still here?
July 9, 2008 at 8:02 pm
I wanted to congratulate you on singing at school today.
July 9, 2008 at 8:03 pm
Hey Fitz!
July 9, 2008 at 8:06 pm
hiya fitzs!
July 9, 2008 at 8:27 pm
Hey Cylver and Elmy. How are you lovely ladies this evening?
July 9, 2008 at 8:27 pm
can one of you come over here and go to a meeting for me? I am so not in the mood.. I knew I should have taken today off heh
July 9, 2008 at 8:29 pm
I would love to, but I think that with the time difference I might make you late.
July 9, 2008 at 8:29 pm
damn.. you’d think we would have evolved our technology to overcome that hurdle by now..
July 9, 2008 at 8:33 pm
I’d beam in if I could…
July 9, 2008 at 8:36 pm
Thanks for the offer you two.. but I don’t think I’d inflict it on either of you actually.. listening to programmers talking about how their code works is not very exciting…maybe its time to practice my trying to sleep with my eyes open.
July 9, 2008 at 8:47 pm
I’d advise you to think naughty thoughts about Henry, but it could get embarrassing if you started grinning during the meeting.
July 9, 2008 at 8:47 pm
Better yet. You can plot out the next chapter of your story. hint, hint….
July 9, 2008 at 8:50 pm
haha hmm Henry.. I was daydreaming about what to put in my next chapter in my last team meeting.. it turned out to be very productive in getting chatper 10 written hehe. So maybe you’re on to something there fitzs.. I am struggling with chapter 11.. so boring meetings could be good.
I do have chapter 11 open on my PC here at work with a whole two paragraphs written so far.. want to make sure its handy when inspiration hits hehe.
July 9, 2008 at 8:54 pm
I always find watching either BT or youtube vids helps, but probably can’t do that at work.
July 9, 2008 at 8:58 pm
lol fitzs.. yeah I can and do.. I burned off a copy of all the eps from DVD and put them onto a usb drive. I don’t watch them between 9 and 5 though.. I’m often stuck here waiting for my husband to get here because we drive home together..
Anyway.. better go to this meeting.. back in 30-60 mins.. hopefully more inspired.
July 9, 2008 at 8:59 pm
Just real quick to say hi, have company and people coming by for repairs and estimates for landscaping etc. Will check in tomorrow.
Love and hugs to all of you.
July 9, 2008 at 9:11 pm
Night BTF. Good luck with the estimates.
July 9, 2008 at 9:35 pm
Thanks everyone for your uplifting thoughts, I’m going to bed now – It’s been an long and exhausting day! Night
July 9, 2008 at 9:51 pm
Back.. but had to pay attention in the meeting *grumble* Nearly lunchtime though so hopefully can get my creative brain working again shortly.
July 9, 2008 at 10:41 pm
You better girl. I am dying for another chapter here. Going through total withdrawals.
July 9, 2008 at 10:53 pm
HeyGirls,
Thanks for the props Cylver! Everyone at school was looking at me with their mouths open!!lol, Then my freind Trish walked over to me and said, “You never told us yo could Sing” “Now we know where your talent lies” . The principle was watching and listening just outside the tutoring center where I was at, and she walked in with a smile on her face, and said, would you sing at our next cook out! I was dumbfounded!! But it felt damned good to know that my sacrifice of Quitting smoking payed off in a big way!!
July 9, 2008 at 10:54 pm
I have those tests in the morning! I am kind of scared about the biopsy. I have never had a needle in my neck before, I hope they put me to sleep. I don’t want to feel the pain.
July 9, 2008 at 10:55 pm
yes, more Restless “Please” and haunted too!!
July 9, 2008 at 10:56 pm
I have been jumping around reading old stuff too! also a new one about Monster’s and Vicki’s dad. I love that one too!!
July 9, 2008 at 10:59 pm
well I’m gonna call it a night! I am tired. Will fill you in on what I find out tomorrow!! Love you all,
Goodnight!!
July 9, 2008 at 11:38 pm
hehe thanks fitzsgirl I will take that as a compliment 🙂
July 9, 2008 at 11:48 pm
You should. We need more and to find out what happens the next day after the hot steamy sex.
July 9, 2008 at 11:49 pm
Just quickly dropping in…
Tweety and Pokey – you’re in my prayers.
You too Cylver…hope those fires stay away!
Good night all and sweet Henry dreams!
July 10, 2008 at 12:08 am
Fitzs I’m still trying to make up my mind about ‘the morning after’ so to speak.. I’m slowly piecing it together in my mind I think.
July 10, 2008 at 12:12 am
Nite, nite! Sweet Henry dreams to you too.
Elmy, take all the time you need. I know it will be well worth the wait!
July 10, 2008 at 12:19 am
Night cylver! Sleep well!
July 10, 2008 at 12:35 am
Night all.
July 10, 2008 at 12:42 am
night fitzsgirl
July 10, 2008 at 1:58 am
If anyone’s still here, I’ve just posted part three of my story on HN. Enjoy!
July 10, 2008 at 7:34 am
Morning all. The girls woke up at 5am, now everyone is back to sleep and I’m wide awake. Just my luck.
Raven, glad to have you back! We’ve missed you around here.
Tweety, I sent you a email. I’m praying for your family.
Pokey, I’ll be thinking of you during your tests and saying a prayer everything is fine.
I’m going to do some stuff while it’s quiet here. I’ll be back later.
July 10, 2008 at 7:51 am
Hi csd – I’m around, just trying to get some of my latest chapter written, won’t be up much longer though – need to catch up on some sleep.
July 10, 2008 at 8:39 am
*yawn* ok I’m out of here.. will stop by in the morning and say hi.
July 10, 2008 at 9:09 am
Thanks all for your support, you all are great here. we have an appointment with his doctor at university of Chicago on Monday…Happy Birthday to me…lol Just a little sarcastic humor – it just wasn’t the place I wanted to spend my birthday – but what can one do… They are trying a meds adjustment until then, but he really feels quite lousy. I’m just in shock – he was doing so well. But I guess that’s life.
Well I’m going to go take out my frusterations on the weeds in my garden now.
Oh since I havent been sleeping much I caught up with the Tudors on sho on demand – really good show – so far we are to the death of Ann Bolin, and King Henry doesn’t have any male children yet. (references to BT) Have a good day all.
July 10, 2008 at 9:34 am
dropped in to say Hi. SSDD (Same Sh*t, different day)
July 10, 2008 at 12:31 pm
Hi everyone.
Tweety your in my prayers. So scary when family is sick. Keep up posted on how he’s doing ok.
Hope the test went well for you too Pokey.
Glad to see Raven back with us. 2008 has started out a really bad year for a lot of us, but at least it’s half over and the second half will be better for all of us I hope.
Will check back in later.
Don’t forget me while I’m gone. The house is starting to echo. Dad went to Kentucky today. And hubby starts work on Monday.
July 10, 2008 at 2:29 pm
Quick hello, on my way to daughters, before she tosses the couch onto the front lawn. SIL so called mother is claiming she STOLE it. So furniture company is coming for it. It was housewarming gift, and apparently not been paid off. What a nightmare. I told her it is time to clean house..and move on from his hateful family. Anyway long twisted story, and a little vent.
Thank you all for the welcome back..I just could not stay away. I’ve decided I need my BT friends to get through this. 🙂 I’m trying to move on.. and away from the pain of everything, even if it means letting go to do it. So had a heart to heart with the husband, the kids, and even a few friends. I’m trying. So next time I check in, I will be all smiles and happy.. it just might kill me but I am determined. LOL 😉
July 10, 2008 at 2:30 pm
I miss you Marty! Hopefully you will be all settled again before to long. I owe you an email.. Love ya
July 10, 2008 at 2:34 pm
Oh and because of his family harassing phone calls, (calling my daughter a killer.) We have all changed our phone numbers. Nice huh? grumble rant rave.. ok
SMILE NOW. 🙂 Dammit.
July 10, 2008 at 3:00 pm
Hey girls,
Just dropped by to let you all know that The tests are done but Won’t have the final results until Monday they said. although he did say that I may have to have a part of my thyroid removed. Ijust got home not too long ago. How are all of you? I am anxious to get started again on the ff. Its like home to me!!
July 10, 2008 at 3:02 pm
I am a fan of the Tudors as well. I have seen all of season 1&2. I can hardly wait for the new season to start in Jan. I hate the way Henry did Anne. even though she was a bitch as far as Catherine was concerned.
July 10, 2008 at 3:06 pm
Just wanted to stop in & say a quick hello to all!! Still can’t seem to get on when everyone else is. Just talked w/ ccrulz & her internt is out, so hopefully she’ll get back on line soon. Raven, good to see you back here. Cylver–miss you!! BTF–hope that the move is going ok, & you’ll be sttled in before you know it. Pokey–hope your test results will be ok.
July 10, 2008 at 3:20 pm
I appreciate all of the prayers and best wishes. It means the world to me!! Hopefully, Iwon’t have any cancerous cells in there!! I haven’t been sleeping all that well since they ordered these tests. I wish I could have had Kyle by my side for comfort. But He was in my thoughts!and that helped some!!
July 10, 2008 at 3:41 pm
Hi everyone! Raven, please feel free to vent all you want. I know I have!
Pokey, hope the tests weren’t too painful, and I really hope that the results will be good.
Coops, are you still here? I miss you!
BTF, I hope the stress of moving isn’t getting to you too bad! By the way, I’ll be (finally) sending a puzzle for the site. Post it whenever, no hurry!
July 10, 2008 at 3:45 pm
I forgot to mention that we got 636 votes on RL yesterday, so out numbers are back up after the holiday weekend! Also, Kyle finally passed October Road at HN! I’ll continue with part 4 of my story there tonight. I think after it’s finished, I’ll put the whole thing up as a one-shot on TB. Sound good?
July 10, 2008 at 3:58 pm
I noticed that Kyle went up a notch and that the Moonlight numbers are down a little. It is so hard to keep up with all that is going on in our lives. We do fight a good fight though don’t we?
July 10, 2008 at 4:11 pm
Straight up, we fight a damn good fight!
July 10, 2008 at 4:12 pm
It is never wise to mess with a group of determined woman.
July 10, 2008 at 4:31 pm
Vampfan, have your son and his fiancee set a date yet?
July 10, 2008 at 4:41 pm
I’m back. had to change jobs for the last 1/2 hour of the day. the fun never ends. anyway, cylver, we went and looked at a beautiful place last night. all the saturdays are filled for next summer already but they will give us a good deal on a friday. that will work out fine. they have 4 or 5 other places to look at in the next week or so. the dates book quickly and we need a big place so they can’t drag their heels. my son should have coughed up the ring during the spring to give us more time. men don’t realize how long it takes to plan a wedding. and after getting the prices, i am glad he’s an only child.
July 10, 2008 at 5:02 pm
done for the day. going to a ballgame tonight. have a good night everybody.
July 10, 2008 at 5:24 pm
Morning all.. tweety did I see you mention it’s your birthday? If so happy birthday!!
July 10, 2008 at 5:50 pm
Howdy all…Just a quick check in to say hi! Raven I sure hope everything starts smoothing out for you. You have had alot piled on your plate and you know we are here for you so you just rant and scream all you want. God knows sometimes it just makes you feel better.
July 10, 2008 at 5:50 pm
Oh morning to you Elmy!!
July 10, 2008 at 5:53 pm
Hey all!! How’s it going today?? Checking in again to see if anyone is still here. I just put some info up about myself under the “us” tag–just FYI for ya. Anyone here now??
July 10, 2008 at 5:55 pm
I’m around but getting ready for work. Hi vamp and coops.
July 10, 2008 at 6:03 pm
Hey Elmy!! How are ya??
July 10, 2008 at 6:04 pm
I’ll check in later. Catch ya!!
July 10, 2008 at 6:12 pm
Coops! Don’t tell me I missed you again! I was over at HN putting in my share of comments.
Tweety, I know you’ve got a lot of worries right now, but I hope your birthday is a happy one anyhow!
July 10, 2008 at 6:29 pm
🙂 😉 See smiling.
Can’t believe I missed ya coops. Mary, hope your tests come back all clean. Thyroid stuff is a pain. I have Hashimoto’s. So always watching for a problem.
Happy Birthday Tweety.. hope you get all you wish for…
Vamphoney! Smooth? what the heck does that mean? Some day maybe.
Ok will check back again later.. gotta cook.
July 10, 2008 at 6:31 pm
Oh hello Elmy! and Vampfan.. Congrats on the upcoming wedding! How expensively exciting! LOL
July 10, 2008 at 6:44 pm
Hi everyone – thank you for the birthday wishes it’s on Monday the 14th.
Also thanks everyone for your concern with my husband, I appreciate the thoughts. I’ll get through it all one day at a time,right???
Mary I hope your tests come back with a good report!
Vampfan congrats on the wedding – I love weddings they are so fun and festive!!! I love the flowers and cake – It’s always set up bright and beautiful!
Raven you are still in my prayers.
And I’ll check in later
July 10, 2008 at 6:46 pm
Hey, I know what would cheer me up either the release of the BT DVD OR to find out that Kyle is comming to Jumpcon in Chicago in August – Just wishing…..
July 10, 2008 at 7:06 pm
Thank you tweety, you and your hubby are in mine too!! I will pray that he will be back to his old self soon!! Hi everyone!! Did Elmy sign off for the night? Oh well, Hey Chrissy, BTF, Vamphoney, and SM. how are you guys, I am trying to get some more math done. before Monday. and cleaning house. I already have bruises starting where they stuck me with needles. They had to stick me three times to get an IV in and then I had to go get the needle in my neck, four times. but it wasn’t too bad.
July 10, 2008 at 7:08 pm
The doctor’s assistant where I got the FNA done bought me lunch today. She was so nice, and I had liver & onions with mashed potatos and gravy. and some coffee and root beer to drink.wasn’t that nice of her?
July 10, 2008 at 7:12 pm
Glad it wasn’t too bad, Pokey. Most people here are probably thinking that feeding you liver and onions after a medical procedure is adding insult to injury, but I actually like liver and onions!
July 10, 2008 at 7:34 pm
LOL, I was thinking EEEwwwee liver and onions, but I’m glad you enjoyed it pokeyspride. I feel for you having to get the needle in your neck, AAARRRGGGHHH! The only thing I want in my neck are Henry’s fangs…lol
July 10, 2008 at 7:41 pm
Here here Tweety! *raises imaginary glass of champagne*
I wanted to let you all know that I just finished writing tonight’s edition of my HN opinion. I’ll post it tonight around 2AM eastern (11 PM my time)
Got a lot of work done on Haunted yesterday and I’ll do more tonight. Maybe I can get it posted before I go to bed. I’ll give it a try!
July 10, 2008 at 7:44 pm
I may have to log off we are about to get a storm – So I’ll check in when it’s done.
July 10, 2008 at 7:46 pm
I would love to comment on HN but I have issues with that site, I have an account and I can log in, but then when I post my opinion it asks me to relog in and so I do and my opinions never get posted. We have a very new 6mo old Dell Lap top – so I don’t get the problem….
July 10, 2008 at 7:47 pm
Oh no Pokey not liver and onions!! Eewwwww!! As if needles aren’t bad enough….LOL!! I can’t stand liver in any shape or form!!!
July 10, 2008 at 7:48 pm
Tweety sounds like you need to inform HN about your problem. It sounds like a site problem..
July 10, 2008 at 7:49 pm
Sorry got to go – storm is here,
Cheers!!!
July 10, 2008 at 7:50 pm
Yeah, maybe I’ll try them tomorrow, thanks
July 10, 2008 at 7:50 pm
See you when you get back. Stay safe…
July 10, 2008 at 7:58 pm
I’m around.. but at work and have a few meetings this morning.. but its Friday for me!!
July 10, 2008 at 8:25 pm
Elmy where do you live???
July 10, 2008 at 8:32 pm
It’s just raining now – the lightening has passed so I’m back on.
July 10, 2008 at 8:41 pm
Hello everyone.
I just got back from my first date in 7 years. 🙂
July 10, 2008 at 9:15 pm
Thanks Tweety for the prayers. I’ll be sending some your way too. Coops did you make it here yet?
Other SIL just left. He and daughter are separating for real this time. Sigh.. those smiles I spoke of earlier, are just not happening tonight.
Congrats on the date wvchic, hope it was great.
oh sorry but YUCK Pokey on the liver and onions…I’d rather the needle.
July 10, 2008 at 9:21 pm
wvchic – Did you have fun? That would be scary and exciteing!
July 10, 2008 at 9:33 pm
Well I’m turning in – I have been up since 3am and Its 8:30 pm here – so I’ll chat with you all tomorrow – Sweet Henry dreams!
July 10, 2008 at 9:40 pm
Good night tweety! Sweet hot Henry dreams to you too. I’m gonna head out to. Have a nice night everyone.
July 10, 2008 at 9:43 pm
Raven, you still here?? hey everyone!!
July 10, 2008 at 10:36 pm
Hey, is anyone else here? I had to step out for a bit.
July 10, 2008 at 10:45 pm
“Hey”
Liver and Onions are awesome if their cooked right!! I love them. Plus its good for my anemia. Thanks, Cylver, I can’t wait to read more of haunted!! so excited. I am getting ready to go to bed myself. I am very tired. all of the anxiety about the tests today wore me out. OH’ tweety, the one thing that helped me deal with him sticking the needle in my neck was imagining Henry biting me! that way it only stung for a few seconds. so it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be.
Well I will catch you all tomorrow.
Goodnight!
and the sweetest of Henry dreams to all of you!!
July 10, 2008 at 11:18 pm
Nite Pokey! Hope tomorrow is a better day for you!
July 10, 2008 at 11:19 pm
Anyone else around? I’ll be up for a few more hours, on HN, hopefully finishing the new chapter of Haunted, etc.
July 10, 2008 at 11:34 pm
tweety – I’m in sydney australia.
Hi Cylver – I’m around now.
July 11, 2008 at 12:47 am
Hi Elmy! I was taking a break from Haunted and finishing the short pieces I was writing as opinions for HN. I’ll probably post them on TB tomorrow sometime. Now I better get back to Haunted…I want to try to finish that chapter tonight before bed…
July 11, 2008 at 12:47 am
I’ll check back in a little bit!
July 11, 2008 at 1:03 am
Understand the need to finish the story while you’re in the right mindset! For some reason I am really struggling with my latest chapter.. keep changing my mind about it.
July 11, 2008 at 2:56 am
That’s the hardest part for me too. Sometimes I think a story is going one way, then I start realizing that it would make more sense another way. Or I have trouble figuring out how to get the characters from point A to point B. Does that even make sense?
July 11, 2008 at 4:08 am
Makes perfect sense! I have an idea how to conclude my story.. but getting the characters from where they are now to that point in time is still a bit grey! Like I have various snapshots in my head but it takes a while to put link them together.
Anyway.. finally home time for me. Will chat again from home to anyone who is around.
July 11, 2008 at 4:38 am
I going to have to finish this chapter tomorrow, I think. It’s about 1:30 AM here in California and I can’t even think any longer. Have a good evening!
July 11, 2008 at 5:54 am
Hey did some of you get the email from Evdokya regarding the fandom fanfic awards?
July 11, 2008 at 6:42 am
Hmm just watching reruns of supernatural.. never realised gina was in the second episode. She looks different!
July 11, 2008 at 6:53 am
Woohoo just saw a new version of the BT promo on FOX8! Very sexy! My only concern is that they will be showing Blood Ties here at 9:30pm after America’s Next Top Model (7:30pm) and Gossip Girl (8:30pm) – not sure if its a good mix or not.
July 11, 2008 at 8:09 am
Morning everyone, sheetrocking and all starts today, will be moving computer into different room.
Here’s something to make you choke on your coffee. Lifetime is announcing today that they are producing a talkshow hosted by Carson Kresley. Yea the same guy with the queer eye for the straight guy and tells you how to look good naked.
Guess the monkeys are still running the zoo at Lifetime (my apologies to any real monkeys that might be reading this).
July 11, 2008 at 8:11 am
lol btf – is it possible that there is a portion of the female population that love that type of stuff? I know I don’t.. but someone has to be paying for it!
Reality tv needs to die in my opinion.
July 11, 2008 at 8:14 am
A quick death if you ask me.
How is your evening going?

Good Morning, and BTF was going to start the day with a 🙂 but reading your message makes me cranky! LOL Don’t insult those monkeys!! LOL
Sheetrocking is such a mess! Good luck. We just did our LR not to long ago. Looks great now but a nightmare getting it done. We did it ourselves so if you are having someone do it, maybe it will not be as bad. LOL I still find “dust”. Off to get more coffee..be back in a few.
July 11, 2008 at 8:15 am
Hello Elmy, Yes Reality TV is so fake and boring. It does need to die a really quick death. Preferably by some handsome Vampire we all know and love.
July 11, 2008 at 8:17 am
I’m hiring as much of this mess out as I can. Too old to be doing this stuff. And the fact that it has to all be done quickly is another incentive to let someone else do it.
Glad to see you back here btw. Missed you.
This next week will be crazy here so counting on you to keep things moving smoothly here.
Gotta go, they are here.
July 11, 2008 at 8:23 am
Now that is funny BTF, keep things running smoothly? Me? I don’t do smooth. I’m on a rollercoaster ride, but I will try. 😉
July 11, 2008 at 8:33 am
Doing ok this evening btf, got nearly two pages of my next chapter done so it’s not a complete loss 🙂
Is sheetrocking the same as what we’d call gyprocking over here? eg the plasterboard on the walls and ceilings? If so I’ll be able to understand your pain soon.. we’re getting my dad’s ceilings redone shortly while he is overseas. Then redoing the floors, repainting and installing new kitchen.Place will be a mess but at least we’ll get people in to do all the hard work.
July 11, 2008 at 8:42 am
I am so behind on FF. Cant wait to read yours Elmy, sounds good!
Sounds sorta the same as sheetrocking. A mess in both cases I’m sure! But the end result looks great. Ok I have only a few hours to myself before I head to Laura’s and get more stuff done there. Will check back in a while.
Where are you Chrissy???? Hope everything is ok.
July 11, 2008 at 8:47 am
Thanks raven.. see you later.
July 11, 2008 at 9:08 am
Ok.. a very short chapter 11 is up.. but hopefully chapter 12 will come in the next 24 hrs as well.
July 11, 2008 at 9:27 am
Morning ladies,
Hey BTF, reality TV never had life as far as I’m concerned. I really hate thatcrap and will be glad when it wears out its welcome!! Elmy, I left you a new message on the members page and you too Cylver. I am looking forward to getting back into the ff today. also I got a message from this author over at Barnes & Noble’s writing room and he said that if a person hasn’t read works by a Johns Keyes, then they are not poets. I sent him a reply, saying that anyone can be a poet, if it comes from your heart!! That much I do know!! that made me so angry!!
July 11, 2008 at 9:30 am
Happy Friday! I have net again-whoo-hoo!!
July 11, 2008 at 9:33 am
Morning pokey 🙂
Your comment reminds me of how mad I was when I read Denis McGrath’s (BT writer) blog post regarding fan fiction. Kinda walked all over something many of us enjoy without taking it too seriously. To quote:
“What matters is the overall impression. And the overall impression of fanfic — all the fanfic I’ve ever read — is that it’s puerile, overwrought, florid, hamfisted, tin-eared, illiterate, badly spelled, laughably punctuated, intellectually bankrupt pig vomit.
I’m not sure I’ve made myself clear enough.
Fanfic makes the Baby Jesus cry. It’s snuffed it. Bereft of life, it’s gone up the pole and shuffled off to meet its maker. This is an Ex-Genre.”
July 11, 2008 at 9:34 am
Hi ccrulz! Welcome back online!
July 11, 2008 at 9:38 am
His blog post is quite old now.. but if you want to read the whole thing here is the link:

July 11, 2008 at 9:56 am
Thanks! I was having withdrawals!!
July 11, 2008 at 10:01 am
I don’t know how you survived 🙂
July 11, 2008 at 10:04 am
Ok.. I’m off to bed…but atleast I can sleep in tomorrow! Gotta love weekends..
July 11, 2008 at 10:05 am
Hello! EVERYBODY…..’How are all of you doing???’ first, I want to apologize, if I OFFENDED anyone here the day before with my questions. All I wanted to know was were the BT FANBASE going to support TRUE BLOOD, NO! not make videos, write fanfiction or anything else like that, just rally along with other fanbases of present/past vamp series and show support for the show. And not JUST for TB, this could have been BT’S last shot, I thought that we would want to take it…..I REALIZE, THAT PURPOSE IS ALREADY DEFEATED! Second, this will be my LAST POST, I don’t know about you all, but I’m starting to accept that BT will not be back…..EVER. And even if by some miracle, it does come back, then all that’s going to happen to it is that it will suffer the same fate as MOONLIGHT and JERICHO, and it will be CANCELLED all over again. WHY??? you ask, simply because of the NUMBERS GAME, we don’t have the viewership to sustain BT and inspire any network that is privilege to have the show, to continue on with it for more seasons. I noticed that no one here has mentioned anything about getting in contact with the networks…well, THAT’S OKAY. I will stop to, I won’t waste my time and money anymore for something that DIED back in November, H@#l! even earlier than that. And I think, you all, deep-down, subconsciously, have given up too, you just afraid to admit it out loud, but it’s alright, it’s alright to say that IT’S OVER & AND WE ARE DONE WITH IT. I’m not mad or disappointed, I feel a sense of RELIEF, now, I can move on to other things. So, I wish you gals and a gent all the best, and I hope that things get better and stay that way in your real lives too. “BRIDGET & PERRI AZITA OUT…..PEACE!!!……………….”
July 11, 2008 at 10:06 am
I agree Elmy, I just read the updated chapters and love where they are going, you definately must continue. Also to whomever wrote the monster story. about vickis dad, My heart just broke into for Henry. I want to see him get big time revenge on Vicki’s dad. and the vicki give him more love in the monster story to comfort him after the scene in the office!!
July 11, 2008 at 10:11 am
Well need to go for now, have to clean out the litter box again! be back later on! love you all!!
July 11, 2008 at 10:12 am
Morning all. Sorry I haven’t been on much. The girls are going through a bad time and I can’t be here much. I am trying to peek in every now and then to see if you guys need a new page put up or a comment is being held. Having two disabled children can be time consuming. Now after another sleepless night I’m off to drink some coffee. I’m hoping to have the surprise for you sometime today or tomorrow. I’ll look in later, looks like we will be needing a new page soon. Let me know if the page starts loading slow for you. See you soon!
July 11, 2008 at 10:51 am
Good morning all! For those that voted for my work, we’re in 2nd place!!! Thank you!!! The 1st place florist has 3 locations and is just HUGE, so being 2nd place to them is quite an accomplishment.
I’m off today, but have so much other work around home to do today. I’ll be checking in when I get a chance.
Have a great day!
July 11, 2008 at 12:15 pm
pokeyspride2002 you crack me up – I’d have to imagine Henry’s fangs too if I had to get stuck in the neck with a needle. Then the dr and nurse would be wondering why I was smiling…lol
July 11, 2008 at 12:35 pm
Oh my gosh you guys, remember I said hubby wasn’t feeling well…Well, his company sent him to Wisconsin to oversee some quality control issues on a job, and it’s supposed to be observation type gig for him since his health is an issue right now. So he calls this morning and they had to rush him to the ER last night because a pipe burst ( that he was standing by) and hit him in the face. So he has a broken nose, stitches and 2 swollen eyes – and his face is blue and purple…lol. Im not laughing at his pain – I’m laughing at the ironicness of the situation – how much injury and medical issues can happen to one guy!!! LOL
*** side note Craig has had 3 hernia repair surgeries in the last 4 years, E-Coli poisioning (from a swimming pool) that almost killed him – he spent several weeks in the hospital and the whole heart, bloodpressure, passing out thing this year…I mean WHAT THE HECK LOL yes still laughing, b/c what else can I do – I figure the whole nose thing is the icing on the cake! LOL I’m trying to have a good sense of humor about it now!
July 11, 2008 at 12:49 pm
Hi everyone! Tweety, your pour husband! I’m glad you can still laugh about it. I’d probably be having screaming fits at everyone I know!
As for Denis McGrath’s comments on fanfic, well that whole rant was cribbed from an old Monty Python sketch (The Parrot Skit, to be exact) so I’d say he was engaging in some fanfic of his own when he wrote that opinion!
Speaking of fanfic, I tried finishing my chapter of Haunted last night, but it got too late, and I got too sleepy. I’ll try again tonight. I’m just getting into the climactic confrontation, and I want to make sure I do it right.
July 11, 2008 at 12:52 pm
So, a talk show from the Queer Eye guy? What’s he gonna talk about, women and self-esteem issues? As if!
July 11, 2008 at 12:54 pm
Morning everyone. I just got back from my uncle’s funeral a few minutes ago. Heck of a way to start the day. I have a question…Has anyone heard of any new mission except the billboard to help get our show back? Writing the networks is not working and we need to try something else. I hate to say this but I kind of feel like bridget. I am getting the feeling that we have all but given up. No one talks about what to do next anymore. Are we to that point now?
July 11, 2008 at 1:12 pm
I agree with Cylver about the blog, as far as giving up, my theory is this. Why would they be doing things for a supposed “dead” show such as..merchandising..jumpcon appearances, releasing it in Australia? There are lots of positives out there but this is America and you are free to stop writing, emailing, whatever you like. I choose not to personally, I will continue on HN, the writing the emailing, etc. And whether or not it returns, I feel we still have a great community of people and would hate to see us stop talking just because the show might not return. I can’t imagine myself not having the new friends I have or not continuing those friendships! Although I don’t get on as much as I would like, I can’t even fathom not being here at all. I was about to have a stroke this week! The fanfic is fantastic, I enjoy reading as well as writing..can’t wait to hear from those lucky enough to go to Boston!
July 11, 2008 at 1:24 pm
Your surprise is on the home page. Enjoy!
July 11, 2008 at 1:48 pm
That was fantastic!! Great lines..all the best in there really!!
July 11, 2008 at 1:53 pm
I don’t feel like giving up either ccrulz. It just feels to me like alot of people are. I think they have worn us down and that is what they wanted all along. We are losing steam and I am at my wit’s end on how to get it back. I also love my new family and I don’t want to lose them either. I enjoy the convos alot and I am so looking forward to meeting some of you in Dallas.
July 11, 2008 at 2:01 pm
Make sure you leave a comment for TheHuntress, either here or at You Tube. She put alot of work into making that for us, she had to go through all 22 eps to get the clips. So tell her thank you and maybe she will do more for us.
July 11, 2008 at 2:10 pm
I just left her one csd1..you can tell she went through them all. Makes me want to sit and watch online all day! Glad to hear that vamphoney, don’t let them get you down. csd..did you get my email question?
July 11, 2008 at 2:11 pm
GREAT video. Boy, I can look at Henry all day. My computer here at work doesn’t have sound but I am content with the visual..
July 11, 2008 at 2:16 pm
What a great video. I left Huntress a comment too. I could sit and watch that all day. Well off to go pay some bills. Yuck!! Check back later…
July 11, 2008 at 2:18 pm
Got your email ccrulzs, sent you a reply.
I wanted something special for you guys so I went though all the eps, it was SO hard to do, and picked moments I haven’t seen in a video before. Huntress ran with it and did a GREAT job. We have such a great team here at EBT. Even if we get no more eps (still hoding on to hope) we will keep doing fun stuff around here.
July 11, 2008 at 2:24 pm
did you send it to my ccrulz or my personal? I can’t access my ccrulz from here..can you send it to suzitwobytwo@yahoo.com instead? Thanks..
July 11, 2008 at 2:28 pm
That is the email I sent it too. Let me know if you got it or not. My email acts crazy sometimes (just like me) but I have other emails I can send to you.
July 11, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Hey Huntress!!
Awesome video, You do such great work. I still have your video, touch of Heaven BM. Its one of my favs. hey tweety, thanks, I crack myself up sometimes too! They did ask me what I was smiling about and when I told them the nurse chuckled, and the Dr. said “More power to Henry” I had to laugh at his comment!! Sorry about your uncle, Vamphoney. My prayers are with you! Welcome back CCrulz. I agree with you. BT is not dead at least right now, and I will never give up on it!!
July 11, 2008 at 2:45 pm
CCRulz,
You have made me cry! I have never in my life felt so accepted and loved. by such a wonderful group of Friends. I have also never had anywhere near this many friends in my life! I love and cherish every one of you. Even if BT dosen’t return, In my heart I will always love Kyle, Christina, Dylan, and Gina, for bringing us together!! This time with all of you has been the second best time of my life. only after the times I get with my sons!!
July 11, 2008 at 2:50 pm
Yes I got your email and I responded..let me know if it works.
July 11, 2008 at 2:51 pm
And thanks for the welcome back! Didn’t mean to make anyone cry..
July 11, 2008 at 2:54 pm
CCRulz just relied again. If it doesn’t work this time I’ll send you my personal email to send to.
July 11, 2008 at 3:08 pm
I was happy crying, CCrulz, I just watched to gag reel for mookies law. and The part where he is kissing that girl on the neck when they go in the bathroom, was different. he had his hair all pulled back. and he just wasn’t anything like Henry at all. but still sexy.
July 11, 2008 at 3:11 pm
I feel like many of you – I figured from about Sept on that LT was not going to renew BT – I have never been so involved in a show before – chatting with other viewers waiting for each episode. I thought for awhile someone would pick it up. I think between LT and the production companies BT got caught up in a bad situation, bad timeing and a bad station such as LT who has NO idea what women want – We want, action with a HOT man involved and romance and suspense. Which is what Bloodties offered. So the channel for women is not for women at all. I enjoy chatting with you all everyday and we look forward to other Kyle, christina and Dylan productions and the jumpcons, I also have lost faith that they are bringing it back, I’m hopeful buy not convinced. I’m waiting for it to come out on DVD and I figure that’s it. That’s my 2 cents…
July 11, 2008 at 3:18 pm
okay csd..I just sent it as a foward with attachment..hope it works.
July 11, 2008 at 3:21 pm
I got it, just need to know the name to use. Have NO clue.
July 11, 2008 at 3:35 pm
Altigh ccrulz, your picture is up at members. Don’t know why I had Heather on that email! Oh and your son is a cutie!
July 11, 2008 at 3:41 pm
Thanks!! He’s number 2 of five kids!!
July 11, 2008 at 3:50 pm
Hey ccrulz, you look exactly the way I pictured you. Love putting faces to names.I have a picture from vacation i am going to put up, but haven’t figured out how. Hubby working all weekend so I’ll try then.

That video was awesome! Loved it. Loved it! Thanks Chrissy! Thanks Huntress!
Well I am gonna put a couple ops on HN.. first time in a long while. Be back in a bit.
July 11, 2008 at 3:59 pm
I don’t think adorable is the word my hubby uses most days!! LOL..but thanks raven! I loved that vid too, even snippets of Henry, Vicki and crew are enough to make me more BT crazy!
July 11, 2008 at 4:01 pm

July 11, 2008 at 4:12 pm

Hi all, does the term dragging my tail make sense?
July 11, 2008 at 7:58 pm
Definately won’t make it up for “gifted” tonight. Living room is totally empty except for my dining room table and pool table.
My computer is now in Dad bedroom. He’s in Kentucky.
July 11, 2008 at 8:00 pm
Sorry to see Bridget give up, I’m hanging in there cause I’ve got the best friends here and won’t give up on them or BT.
Vamphoney I’m trying for Dallas too.
July 11, 2008 at 8:04 pm
I’m with you btf. Still hoping…but even if we have no luck it doesnt change the fact that the show has brought a lot of joy to my life.
July 11, 2008 at 8:17 pm
Yea that’s how I feel. And alot of wonderful people have entered my life, for that I’ll always have a place in my heart for Blood Ties.
July 11, 2008 at 8:23 pm
Hey guys, I’m getting ready to jump in the tub and then head to bed. Do I need to put up the next page or not? I’ll be here for a minute so let me know.
July 11, 2008 at 8:24 pm

July 11, 2008 at 8:42 pm
Only got about 5 hours of sleep and that was interrupted all night. Will hopefully dream of BT tonight and feel great in the morning.
July 11, 2008 at 8:43 pm
I’m just as excited to meet you and ccrulz etc. Kyle and Dylan would just be icing on the cake. Nice icing but ya’ll are the cake.
July 11, 2008 at 8:43 pm
