A friend of mine is joining DU.

[ThomCat]

Her name is JennaLaw. She signed up today. She's been wanting to sign up for a while because I keep talking about this place. She was over here at my place earlier today, so no more procrastinating. Well, maybe a little bit more. She hasn't logged in yet with the temporary password the admins emailed her. But she'll probably do that tomorrow.

So if you see a post from a newbie named JennaLaw say hello. :)

1. Hey sweetheart!!!

:hug:


:loveya:



:*

[ThomCat]

4. Hi LizzieGrace!

:loveya:

:hug:

Please do me a favor and call me tomorrow evening? I've been very distracted and isolated by my daily migraines and the chronic fatigue. I keep laying down and then miss the entire evening. So I wouldn't mind a poke to get me up and alert again, and then I'd get to talk to you! :)

[lizziegrace]

6. It will be late

if that's okay. 10 your time at the earliest. I have a meeting tomorrow evening.

:hug:

[ThomCat]

8. That's a good time for me.

:)

:hi:
Goodnight. I'm about to fall down, so I'm going to lay down.

[lizziegrace]

9. sweet dreams...

love you!

:hug:

[Solon]

2. You know she's going to have to go through the hazing, just like the rest of us...

So you better warn her that there is a lot of this:

:spank:

and this:



going on around here!

:D

[ThomCat]

5. LOL! She'll be your friend for life.

:rofl:

[Solon]

11. Perfect, she'll fit right in with the rest of us nutballs in the lounge!

:silly:

[Danger Mouse]

3. Just tell her to stay away from GD:P for a long, long time.

:hi:

[ThomCat]

7. I'm guessing that she'll lurk in there but not post very much

at least for a while. I've warned her that Any of the main forums except for the lounge are likly to be mine fields until after the election.

But who knows. She might really take to it all. I know some of her positions and opinions, but I mostly know her through a Harry Potter themed meetup group. I might be very surprised about how she approaches politics.

10. ThomCat, hon, thank you.

:hug: :toast: :beer: :party:

[ThomCat]

14. I am not sure if Jenna will thank me once she see

what an insane asylum this place can be. :silly:

:hi:

:hug:

[Skittles]

12. you want I should kick her ass, ThomCat?

you know, a welcome-to-DU buttkicking :D

[ThomCat]

13. That's a really good idea.

:P

Every Noob should get a welcome-to-DU buttkicking. :rofl:

[lost-in-nj]

15. Hi Thom!!

any friend of yours has got to be great!!!!

Hope your feeling a little better today... i saw where you wrote you weren't feeling good.

:hug: :hi:

lost

[ThomCat]

16. I'm doing okay today.

The migraines have gone daily again, but I seem to have a repreave this morning. It's my first morning without a migraine in over a week. I'm really enjoying this. :)

If all goes well today, that means a day without the side effects of the migraine meds. :woohoo:

Jenna is a really good person. She lives up in CT, but I think I can get her to come down here for some DU meetups in NYC. After all, she comes down here for the Harry Potter meetups, so she's in the city regularly. People will enjoy meeting her.

Single straight guys should all beware. She Flirts! :P

I have to check if there is a knitting and crocheting forum here. I'll probably donate so she can have a star and get to the small forums, and then I know she'll become a regular there.

[ThomCat]

18. You are awesome.

:hi:

:hi:

[krispos42]

29. Welcome aboard!

:hi:

Have fun, keep it clean not too dirty, two-drink minimum, avoid discussing Olive Garden, pit bulls, circumsision, cornflake-breaded fried chicken, or Gardasil if you want to retain your sanity. Keep your arms and legs inside the DU at all times. Hiding your boxed wine, making fun of Delaware, and copycat threads are mandatory.



At all times, Ceiling Cat is watching you:




Never ever ever ask Skinner to tombstone you.





And definitely don't click this:
ḥttp://wẉw.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.ph...




And what's truly amazing is that within a week this will seem entirely normal to you.

:crazy:
