There's a crowd peering in your windows, watching, waiting........
Dennis, Nani, Mean-ole Charlie(HeeHee) Charlotte, Sannna..........we're getting noseprints on the glass even.........oh, let's not forget Guiseppi, who forgot how badly he wanted to be there............
we are all living vicariously through you......sooo, kick Beeeeyul out of bed, chain him to a laptop....
AND SEND US SOME STUFF!!pics, stories, auction results.we'll take any crumbs...........
aren'tcha tired of us watching and waiting like this? we're kinda rude, but determined curmudgeons..........
it's nearly 10:30 in Dallas...............
OKOK>..............get your rest, follow the agenda, hug and laugh and we'll hold down the fort here................
just wish we could ALL be there.............. :-/  

Cathi :-X(that's for Chuck)

I'm sure Bill has a number of people he would like to say goodbye to. Let's cut him some slack. He usually stays a day later than most everybody else so he can organize and post.

I'm fairly certain that statement I made regarding following the agenda and such was originally in my post............perhaps my humor has gone flat.
Beeeyul works on those pics like crazy, I know! I was once with him at 'command central".............
I hope you are the only one who took offense to my thread, Brew.

Cathi

I got it Cathi.  No worries here  ;)

The mental vision of a bunch of adults with their noses pressed to the window looking in like children ourside of FAO Schwartz was funny and accurate  ;D

I'm taking the silence as evidence that Beeyull and everyone else is having too much of a good time to post anything.  That'll make the final evidence that much more enjoyable.

-Dennis-

I took no offense, Cathi.

Don't worry Cathi, Brew was just being anal again. ;)

I'm just as anxious as you!!!

I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'....

It's not like the guy's getting paid to document what the rest of us are missing. He's a human being, too. And sometimes it's hard for human beings to say goodbye to one another. And it takes time.

I laughed when I read your post, Cathi. :)

Melly said "Anal".....LOL  ;D

I'm sure more photos will be posted soon.

Add me to the list of peepers  :D

Me too! :D

I haven't seen anyone down there logged on all day.  At this point I'm thinking that all those goodbye tears must have shorted out the Hotel Internet  ;D  

-Dennis-

You mean they might actually be interacting with each other? Face to face? No electronic separation? Real hugging, kissing, crying, emoting?

God forbid. ;)

Having left Dallas today , we've only gotten as far as Waco, Texas. (We drove)  I was so proud of myself for not showing my tears as I hugged everyone good bye.

MAN....what a great convention!!!!!!!!   Chucks comments about raucus wild parties and dancing on tables are....I hope you all know by now..just Chucks imagination. Or maybe hopeful wishing. lol

The hotel was so wonderful, the new people I got to meet, Tour of the Linde facility which was so interesting,  meeting their representatives and talking to them all week-end,  Listening to our esteemed Dr. Goadsby.  Last OUCH meeting for outgoing members, the presentations, etc.

Getting hit and having someone let me try out the new life-gas mask and demand valve. I was in shock...it aborted in such a short time I was crying.  I was crying again when It was bought for me to take home by Cluster Chuck.  I will now have to be nice to Chuck for at least a year.   Thank you Chuck.  From the bottom of my heart.

We sold everything at the auction that was donated and I thank all the buyers for supporting OUCH.  All who donated will be sent a personally handwriten notes of thanks with info on who bought your item.

Cathi your supporters baskets were a hit,  Steve printed out your instructions as requested..and I passed out your oither goodies to the proper people.

this connection is slow and typing on a lap-top with long nails is frustrating so I wish I could post more of what I experienced this week-end.,

I will be on the road until almost the end of the month.

Linda


Thank you for the pic of Ava Mel.   [smiley=engel017.gif]

Dammit I miss you Linda!!!

Thank you sweets for taking the time to post!!  Means a lot to read a snippet of the weekend.

I swear I'm coming next year!~

love,
:)mel

Time always goes soooo slowly when you wait for something. my best supporter actually begun to make jokes about it... ;D But it's been wonderful to see all those pictures and read about the convention ( I bet there's more stories to come! ;)). Chuck's post actually made me feel guilty (in a good way) that I didn't make it to Dallas this year! ;D Maybe next year... ;)

Sanna

OK, now you can see just how patient I can be! And, look at the rewards!!! Soo many new pics from Beeyul..............I'm so grateful for the time he takes posting for all of us who didn't go, and, Beeyul, your time socializing is NOT begrudged...........
I LOVE the idea of a West Coast Conv. tried to do it this year, but I need to know which airports are hubs, so, with luck, noone has to take those horrid, overpriced connector flights. THEN, we ned to come up with a hotel in that community that doesn't cost an arm and a leg..there again......what about coming into Seattle and boarding a cruise ship for conv???
It was SOO good watching all of you smiling and hugging. It brought tears to my eyes when I thought of the year I met Svenn and Bente in Nashville....where did  THEY GO????
Stephanie-Warden from Hell..I missed you, ya big troublemaker.....
Elaine, you are looking so pretty!!
Lizzie-You is lookin GOOD............and I never noticed what lovely eyes you have!!
Tony-One of several people I love thatI have never met!!
And more, and more and MORE!
Wish I could've shaken Goadsby's hand......and BTW, now that he is stateside, is he Professor, or DR??
I'm really excited!!  THIS year, it truly looks like we have corporate attention.......watch things as they begin to roll now!
Steve, thank you for your help.again, I reminisced about NashCon..wanna go to another Blues bar with me????
Donna, I know how hard you and Steve worked........from where I stand, this conv. was a rousing success!
From one of the kids with their runny noses pressed against the window, I thank you!
cathi ;)
