JULY 1998....THE PLACE....BITCHIN'S HOUSE, LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK
....THE REASON? THIS BITCH IS CRAZY!!!!!

.....This section of the meets page is quite difficult for me to write about, so instead I am asking all those who have attended to please email me with some sort of mini paragraph, saying, sentiment or whatever it is that you remember about that day!!!..What you say, whether positive or negative is up to you...just know that whatever you send me will be printed!!!! hehehehe the consequences that you will be faced with is up to you!!!! .....The list of attendees were as follows....inhaling here.....Becky, PassionateLady, Owl, Elrond, Mona, Woodman, Duchess, Scooby, Ruthie, Calmariner, MidLifeCrisis, Flgal, Rhett, Nash, PJF, Steve, Budman, Chat, LC, Hank, Robbi, Wanna, Chaser, Dan, Carousel, DDT, Budman, Sapphire, and myself!!! phew that was a mouthful!!!

.....I will start off by giving you my mini paragraph!!!...in nothing more then a few simple words, the day to me was this...WE BECAME FRIENDS...the wonderful world of chat took on a whole different meaning to me...I knew that day all the wonderful people I entrusted my deepest thoughts too, were truly some of my closest friends...Those names on a blank screen had taken on a whole different meaning to me...Those names became real!!! Now when i go in the room....its the Susans, and the Johns, the Rons and the Julies that are there to me....MY FRIENDS....as I hope you too, call me!!!!........Maria

Becky sums it up this way.......
Let's see I have been to 2 of the meets listed (and many others) and what can I say except they were both SO much fun that we're doing it again this year! It was so great finally putting the faces and the voices to the names on the screen. And I know I have made some friends for life :-) I felt so much warmth and friendliness from everyone, that I still smile when ever I think back to the past year. But just as in everyday life, there are still some people you meet that you don't really mesh well with, thank goodness those were few and far between, and no B, I'm not mentioning names (no cajones) LOL

Only those people who have went through it really understand what it's like to meet people you have been laughing with, crying with, talking to and yes even fighting with for over a year. I'm glad I have made the friends I have, and can only look forward to new memories.

A NOTE FROM WANNA......... As for the july 98 meet, I for one will treasure that one: What did the meet mean to me? It meant everything!!! It was an opportunity to meet family and friends that I had grown to love and lean on and boy did I ever lean on them that weekend! lol some more than others as the pic of chaser and me shows and to enjoy/share my birthday with them. That was such an emotional weekend. As those of you who where there know, I arrived with one very fresh and visual shiner, compliments of procto, I was gonna try to hide it, like you hid an elephant in b's portapot, but decided everyone knew what had happened & decided to go as is. Hank, Robbi, Chaser and I caravaned up from nc ready to PARTY and as I promised b, she knew when I arrived Ü it was so wonderful to finally get that hug irl and to see all those I have grown to love. After finding that hotel everyone told chaser and me to find, imagine my suprise when elrond, becks, mona and others showed at the door looking for us.... geez make up your minds folks, lol never will forget el's shocked look when he almost got to meet more of me than he expected Ü the comardire we had then is priceless and cherished by chaser and me, and we look forward to meet3.
