Thank you, sweet Jamie. I'm glad to be here. Needless to say, every comment I will post here is almost certain to be off-topic. I do belong here, however, because you'll notice that I'm in Northern California.

Now dear Zuzu...I believe we are expected to behave here on the new more formal ATP site. If you are planning nautiness I would recommend cubing that!

Naughtiness cubed is three times the naughtiness.

I don't think forums necessarily need moderators. Most of the moderators of the forums here were the owners of those cubits before they moved to the new site. It makes us feel better about our sudden plunge in status.

Hi Jamie and Dahlianut!

My "virtual self" is in the northern country. Hate hot weather. What the heck am I doing here?

Another reason to visit All Things Plants... it can carry you away to where you want to be!

Even the clouds look hot.

awww poor baby..
I can totally understand the "virtual self" being somewhere else. Even though I am very happy up north.. I still long to be with friends and family down south. I know I will never return down there for good though. I dont miss having to watch where I step or place my hand for fear of a poisonous snake, scorpions, the intense heat & humidity, the couple weeks of "frigid" cold, or the high populations.... yeah I could go on and on. I like raising my kids in the wide open spaces & not having to worry too much about them, so this is where I will stay. Smiling
