Tater | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 10:27 am     My best memory goes like this… It was my 24th birthday and I was talking at work about how I couldn’t even remember the last time I got a rose. What I didn’t know is that my roommate who I had the biggest crush on had heard this. He got of work on hour earlier than me. When I got home I found 12 dozen roses in every room of the house, in every nook and cranny. In the silverware drawer, in the towel closet, even taped to the plunger! LOL! Then I got to my bedroom and saw rose petals scattered on my bed. I hadn’t known that he had fallen in love with me too. Needless to say we had each fallen in love with our best friends! It lasted five years but the memory of it will last a lifetime! |

Spitfire | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 11:49 am     Mack you are a wonderful person and there is no doubt in my mind that your wife knows she has a gem in you. What you said is what every woman only hopes her husbands thinks of her. Your memory makes me smile too...and tear up a bit. (I had to scroll up and read it one more time...I think I need a tissue to please) |

Smartiepants44 | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 01:01 pm     Yesterday, as DW & I went on our regular evening dog walk, she told me that she looks forward to growing old with me. (Older, in my case. She has yet to begin) |
Resortgirl | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 01:07 pm     One memory that makes me smile is being over at my "Nanny's" (she wasn't related to us, but I called her that.) I was about 5 years old and she would watch me when my parents were out. When they would come to pick me up I'd run into her closet to hide and she had a mink coat (sorry moon) and it smelled like Chanel, Noxema, and cigarette smoke. It made me feel so safe! I've never bought Chanel perfume, haven;t used Noxema since I was a teen, but unfortunately I smoke...... dang!! |
Denecee | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 01:24 pm     We can't be perfect Resortgirl! Smartie, it's good to know that I can still make you smile. |
Resortgirl | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 01:28 pm     I know Denecee, but I wish I was hooked on Chanel....lol!!! |

Abby7 | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 03:24 pm     Geez, Mack's memory has me crying as I type this. Mack, that was so touching. <here, to anyone else who needs some tissue...I've got a whole box on top of my monitor.) Thanks, everyone, for sharing these memories...very touching, all of them. |
Goddessatlaw | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 08:23 pm     My favorite memory of my whole life happened this evening. MM (Colossus) called my father to ask his permission to marry me. Although the call was long distance, MM (who was dressed in a T-shirt and black slacks) broke into a sweat and started tucking in his T-shirt as I dialed, then when I looked up he had put his tie and suit jacket on over his T-shirt. He had that deer in the headlights thing going on, but he sweated even harder while talking to my Dad. Dad was nice, he only demanded a couple of donkeys and a camel, but an hour later MM was still sweating just thinking about it. It was very sweet and very touching, and I will smile every time I think of it. (And oh, by the way - I got pictures to remind us both of how much he loves me. It didn't seem to help much that Dad couldn't reach through the phone and strangle him - I think MM figured where there's a pissed off Daddy, there's a way.) Yay us!!! PS MM says: GAL's father said if I didn't make her happy, he would be very "disappointed." MM said "that makes three of us." |
Zachsmom | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 08:28 pm     YAY GAL!! Now, are we all invited to the wedding? Is this a Road Trip in the making? Seriously though, Congratulation! I wish you a lifetime of happiness!  |

Abby7 | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 09:03 pm     Gal and Colossus, you two sound like the perfect match! Good for you!
