I just wanted to say Hello to all of you and tell you all that I have missed being able to spend time here every day, even if just for a little while.
School is keeping me busy and I am doing very well, pulling A's (and one high B) in all of my classes at this point so I am trying hard not to fall behind or allow myself to get off track with keeping up on all the homework and studies.

I gave my second speech this afternoon, a How-To speech on making a pot roast dinner in a Crock Pot that I scored a 135 out of a possible 150 points on...I am happy with that since the class still scares the bejesus outta me lol.
I do have 50 points to add for extra credit at the end of the semester so I am not letting it stress me out but I still think the class itself is a stupid way to potentially mess up a GPA LOL.

I talked to my son last night and he is planning on spending the whole winter break here in Texas which makes me very happy! 3 days out of all of last year was not long enough of a visit. [img]smile.gif[/img]
I did leave him the option of making it another three or 4 days this year in case he wants to change his mind (by folllowing his heart) and go on to Chicago to spend some time with his girl.
He sent me pics of her today! She is absolutely beautiful! I'm hinting at the both of them coming here for Christmas so maybe they will. :D

Well, its back to the books, I have Math homework and some organization to do for a group project in Biology/Nutrition before morning. [img]graemlins/1dizzy.gif[/img]

You All Take Care!
See You Again Sometime!

Moni 10-09-2002 06:07 PM

Thank you johnny!

Sir Goulum 10-09-2002 08:06 PM

LOL That goes back a few months, when there was this thread posted by Yorick. He asked why everyone kept calling him Yorrick, and from there on everyone kinda lost his or hers marbles. So Moni became Minno, and i never stopped using that name. Maybe i need to see a doctor about this. :D

T/-/alali 10-09-2002 08:43 PM

Good luck Moni!!! Come back soon we miss you. ;)

Ladyzekke 10-09-2002 08:43 PM

Glad you are doing well in school Moni [img]smile.gif[/img] Awww, that's great that your son will be spending his winter break with you! I hope that this Christmas you can meet his girl, sounds like you already like her, which is great. From experience, the "mother in law" syndrome is very destructive to relationships (my X mother in law never liked me no matter how much I kissed her a$$), [img]tongue.gif[/img] and it makes such a good difference when everyone gets along and likes eachother. [img]smile.gif[/img] I hope it all works out for yall, and take care, will see ya when you can drop in again! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Attalus 10-09-2002 08:50 PM

That's great, Moni, hope that you continue to do well. "You're good enough, smart enough, and, gosh darn it, people like you." ;)

Cloudbringer 10-09-2002 10:45 PM

That's great news about your son visiting! Keep up the good work at school too! :D

johnny? Did you take too many pills this morning? ;)

Azred 10-10-2002 12:29 AM

<font color = lightgreen>That's wonderful, Moni! [img]graemlins/awesomework.gif[/img] I knew you would do well in your speech class.

Oooh! Math homework! What is the maximum number of pieces of cake you can create using exactly 5 cuts? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

LOL Of course not, just the usual amount. And i posted that last night btw, i'm good now. :D

The Trickster 10-10-2002 05:41 AM

Wow, I think it's fantastic that you have such strength and commitment. Now if only I could get some of that going.

Bokken 10-10-2002 02:03 PM

So you're alive? And just last night Johnny and I were wondering when the funeral was taking place. Spent good money on this black suit and all and now it's all for nothing! :D

Blade 10-10-2002 02:30 PM

Lol good luck Moni i don't have the will to do enough studing to get thoes types of grades i'll take all b's and have some fun and relax myself. The maximum number of pices you can make with 5 cutes is 16 pices [img]tongue.gif[/img] i think anyways :D

Horatio 10-10-2002 03:18 PM

Nice one, Moni [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Got things back...

Hortain

:rolleyes: only in this forumn... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

johnny 10-10-2002 04:32 PM

You forgot horatoi, that's the one i came up with if i remember correctly. Hey...sounds kinda Japanese, doesn't it Horatoi san ? :D

Horatio 10-10-2002 04:47 PM

Watashiwa HORATIO des!!! :D :D

Moni 10-10-2002 11:36 PM

johnny,
Don't ever stop calling me Minno lol.

T/-/alali, Thanks! I miss you & your antics too! (staying up a little late tonight since I took a nap this afternoon lol) Hey, seen any old peasant women in the stands of the arena these days? ;)

ladyzekke,
Thanks! I am hoping his girl won't be intimidated by me as "the mother-in-law" lol...I don't want her kissing a$$, I just want her to be herself...we'll see how it works out. I've never met her but I do like what she is doing for herself ( a good education) what she does for my son (keeps him happy) and I do think she is beautiful. [img]smile.gif[/img] I guess I'll get to see how things go whenever we do get to meet. As long as my son is happy with her, she's all good though and has nothing to prove to me.

Attalus,
LMAO! I keep saying that...! ;)
(thanks ladyzeeke for the wet noodle thing anyway, that was funny too LOL)

Cloudbringer & Azred,
Thank you both very much! Oh and Azred...there isn't any cake. I ate it. ;) [img]tongue.gif[/img]

The Trickster,
I wouldn't call it strength and commitment so much as I would surprise LOL...I did well right off the bat in all of my classes and want to maintain it rather than having to work to bring a grade up like I did last year. I am having fun with all of my classes too which makes a big difference in what I am willing to commit to them too, I think. Then too, you really can't beat having fun, personable and intelligent people teaching you in ALL of your courses! I really lucked out in that dept. this semester.

Bokken,
Tsk tsk tsk...ready to bury me already and we haven't even had dinner together yet! What am I going to do with you?!
Hey, don't go returning that suit right away though! I do still smoke and have been having chest "pressure" and slight pain over the last few weeks too so not all hope is lost. ;) [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img] If anything, you can wear it when you take me out to dinner. ;)

Blade,
I am having fun in a demented kind of way lol...I think my life away from school is just a tad bit on the BORING side though, so that helps lol.

Horatio,
[img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
Back at ya baby! How's the running going these days?

Moni 10-10-2002 11:45 PM

*sniff*
It didn't bump!

Well Hell! No need for me to have a heart attack with ammo like that LOL!
*pulls Bokken's daggers out of her heart and hands them back*
You might want these for the next time I go MIA for a while. ;) [img]tongue.gif[/img]
[img]graemlins/ladyhearts.gif[/img]

(That's so fun!)

Horatio,
[img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
Way Cool! I'll be rooting for you! Let us know if we get lucky enough to catch a televised race!

Rokenn 10-11-2002 03:53 PM

Welcome back Moni. Glad to see you around again [img]smile.gif[/img]

Moni 10-11-2002 03:58 PM

[img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img]
Hi Rokken!
Nice to see you too!

I have a 4 day weekend starting earlier this afternoon so I'll probably be in and out over the next few days...finally, time to relax and have a little fun!

I do have two big exams to study for, some reading to catch up on and my usual weekend housework though so like I said, it'll be an in and out kind of thing. I want to take a full day off to do absolutely nothing too. Its been too long lol.
