Barb, check the ouch board under convention.  There's a button that says who's registered.  That doesn't mean that more won't come, it simply means that some people are procrastinators.

If you haven't reserved your room though it could cost you more after a certain date that I can't look up right now because I am trying to do 3 things at once at the moment.  

Helen there is nothing funner than having a drink with Elaine and of course Jackie.   Trust me.   ;D ;D ;D

Linda I know - remember Richmond? LOL God we had some giggles didn't we?!

And anyone, ANYONE who repeats that banana story will feel the toe of my boot!

Steph I can't wait to see you again and to meet Connor and Brandon too! Oh bloody blimey are we there YET?!

So we're all "IN" then?

Get rid of husbands and significant others and have ourselves a jolly ole time for an hour or so?   Did I just say JOLLY OL TIME?    ::)Helen you are rubbing off on me.

Steph you are more than welcome.  That is if you're still speaking to me.   lol

Gotta tell you all about something about that.

Stephanie told me she collects a certain wine from the Napa valley in California sort of near where I live...and asked me if I ever found a bottle would I get it for her.

So I am in the Napa Valley and I go to this antique store.  In the very last booth and way down in this dark aisle I see the bottle she is referring to.  I ask the saleslady how much.  She says 30.00.   30 dollars is a LOT in my opinion to pay for a bottle of wine so I say NO and leave.  I get backhome  and PM Stephanie and tell her about it, give her the year, etc.  and she PM's me back saying "Linda, you're gonna be sick"  That bottle was worth 500.00 bucks.

Stephanie doesn't love me anymore, and I don't blame her.    ;D

edit to add:  That one bottle of wine could have probably paid for a year for this very site.  I'm not just sick...I am kicking myself in the butt that I didn't have her number so I could  go outside and call her to ask,  before I said no and left.   where is my ass-kicking smilie?  


I am certain one of you can come up with THAT ONE!

Nope, I almost lost my house when I didnt follow the number one rule, "work if you have work". I was flying around the country and forgot that rule, because you folks were so addictive. Now that I am working seven days a week again I need to gain all the ground back and the money I lost saving my house......Its about 60K.....LOL).

BTW: does anyone know if the shiney I made for auction showed up?......It would be nice to know.

You sent it to Donna like I said right?

  Donna may be out of town, but I'm sure it got there J.   When I hear from her I will ask about it as well as about the other auction donations that were sent to her, or are being sent.

OK, I sent my registration money in to OUCH, booked the flights, and made the hotel reservations ...

The only problem is, my two bratty daughters don't trust the old geezer to behave, so Sarah and Stephanie are coming to chaperone me ...

SHEESH!!!  Damn kids!

WATCH OUT, Dallas!!!  That crazy gay guy is coming BACK!!!

In a way, it is surprising that Texas will allow me BACK in the state!  I guess they didn't learn the first time ....  But then again, what do you expect of a state that allows someone like Barbara to continue to live there?

As usual, I'll be posting plenty of pics the whole time I'm in Dallas. With Delta and Marc coming as well, I'd say people will be tired of pics by the time the convention is over.  ;)

Thanks for the heads up, Donna.  :-*

BTW: If you have won a shiney at auction or if I have sent you one as a gift, and it gets damaged in any way, just ship it back to me and I will fix it up free of charge.

I dont even like finger prints on my work, damage will damn near kill me if I cant fix it for you.....LMAO!  ;)

!!! Reserve Your Rooms Early !!!



OUCH has reserved a block of rooms for convention attendees at the special rate of $115 per night.

On or about May 30, 2008, OUCH will be mailing out invitations to

With Professor Peter Goadsby as our guest lecturer, there is a good chance that attendance for this convention will be high.  We urge all our members who wish to attend to get your hotel reservations made as soon as possible to assure you can get the special rate of $115 per night.

Oh I can't wait, I truly can't wait!

You know what one of the "best" bits is going to be for me?

Getting on a plane WITH Paul - no airport goodbyes. This is a first for us (flight together I mean) and I'm so excited. I didn't think it possible to look forward to conventions more than I already did but oh yes I can!

One mention of airport goodbyes and I'm a quivering wreck. Can't even watch them on television. I'm off now...   :'(
