Mina - 365 Days of Smitten

365 Days of Smitten

Monday, January 18, 2010 6:07:09 AM

"Um.... Is this your big, bad ban attempt?"

Wrote those words on an unknown guys blog after being referred there by Carlos Suntana (who I will owe big for the rest of my life) as THE place for scandalous material. The post, let's say, was hardly BAN WORTHY.

*giggles* Who would have thought those words would be engrained in my head for the rest of my days? Such a smartass, ain"t i? Well,

It worked to my advantage.

A year ago today I met someone who turned my world on it's collective ear. And I got banned on my birthday a few weeks later, and guess what? ,

He is still mad he never did. *chuckles*

Day three I said:

"I think I'm your soulmate, and I mean that in the least non-stalkery way possible"

To which he replied:

"That's what they all say!"

It wasn't til later I realized I posted my non-stalkery comment TWICE!

Anywaaaay.....

My WOLFIE is a private sort, so I won't go on with quotes from our journey, altho, I will admit, I have never met anyone in my life I can quote more readily and accurately.... *lafs* It must be love, OR OBSESSION.

Thank you for all your encouragement everyone over the last year. Internet romance is not for the faint of heart, and I believe we have proved that.... and then some.

And thank you, baby, for loving me like you do. I will always maintain that I'M the LUCKY one.

Always....

and forEVER.

And thanks a lot for turning me into some girly chick who remembers anniversaries of stuff. I am so ashamed!

Happy Happy, Joy Joy (for reals)A Good Laugh

Have you found a new place to live yet? If you have to, Jen, rent a room till you can get on your feet.

H82typ # Monday, January 18, 2010 7:42:42 AM

cute ...

MinaMinenow # Monday, January 18, 2010 1:47:52 PM

Carol,

Linda, yes! I did! So so much going on, but I found a place, signed a lease and working on moving plans pretty hardcore.

I can have a cat and/or a small dog there too, so eventually, Ava should get her little kitty she wants so badly.

Kiran, nice to see you!

Dennis,

no I aint.

Dirk, thank you. You're cute too.

Dee, I know ya do, makes me happy that ya do.

You are happy!

*does the happy dance around Mina*

I'm so glad things are turning around for you.

How is the new job?

Suntana # Monday, January 18, 2010 4:18:16 PM

Believe it or not, I believe I actually do remember your quote to the aforementioned Unknown Guy over at his diversified Ban Wish Online One Stop Global Authority Source for Scandalesque Entertainment / Tightrope-walking Controversy-flirting Pedal to the Metal Reservoir Blog.

I certainly remember cluing you in on what was up with Mystery Guy's Ban Wish. I think I did actually WARN you to take a couple of deep breaths, plant your feet firmly on the ground, yet be ready to possibly RUN in a Speedy Gonzalez retreat cuz as as an Ape told Charleton Heston's Taylor in the movie Planet of the Apes --- "Be careful what you go looking for. You might NOT like what you find!!!"

To my extreme Texas-sized surprise, you defied logic ... Nay! You trounced, mangled, obliterated logic and took to Mystery Guy and his

Alternative Entertainment Blog

like a duck to water.

That said, as soon as I read this Post's title, I thought, "Whoa! WHAT? Could it be? Could Jen actually be remembering an EXACT THE Day that this journey began?"

It is hilarious that Mystery Guy scratched, clawed, eye-gouged, kicked sand in faces and engaged in other assorted Ban-hoping treachery and failed to get Banned. Yet you ... you ... Hmmm? What DID you do? Refresh my memory. I THINK I have a vague recollection of your Ban resulting from your finger slipping on your phone's something or other keys on several occasions and causing who knows what havoc.

MConor # Monday, January 18, 2010 5:12:20 PM

I'm happy for you Mina... Clint's a good guy

Don't tell him I said that though. I'd be f*cked for months

Magsintothedeep # Monday, January 18, 2010 5:15:32 PM

Traditional or Modern?

Hmmm...

Darkogdare # Monday, January 18, 2010 6:19:01 PM

A year already??? Congrats, happy for both of you

*kicks both wolfie and Mina for a good luck*

Bad WolfCois # Monday, January 18, 2010 6:59:27 PM

Ok I refuse to be all girly like Conor

.
Yep. A year has passed and it still feels like yesterday.

and my big bad ban attempt was a few posts of testing the water into what Opera really stipulates in their codes of conduct as towards what porn is and what would be considered funny.

.
And so after a year, the girl of my dreams bowled me over with a very overpowering personality

a very sexy smile and a uhm uhm [whisper whisper] neener Darko.

.

Love you babe.

I'm talking to Jen.

MConor # Monday, January 18, 2010 7:10:33 PM

Dammit he caught me

Dacotah # Monday, January 18, 2010 8:29:51 PM

Cois Tsk Tsk .

Jen, is it your birthday today?

Magsintothedeep # Monday, January 18, 2010 8:43:58 PM

Jen's Birthday is Feb. 11th

Ohhh! An altruistic research project for the benefit of the entire Opera Community so as to keep all the Riffraff out and provide only educational, informative content and good clean fun.

For a while there, I thought there might have been some Whack twisted plot.

Dacotah # Monday, January 18, 2010 9:07:40 PM

Thanks Mags.

Cleanclean # Monday, January 18, 2010 11:13:18 PM

Aww ... you crazy kids!

MinaMinenow # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 12:26:08 AM

Carol,

How You doing?

Lindsay, Aw thanks. I really appreciate that! My job hasn't switched over yet, and so I'm hanging tight but I have been picking up some shifts there when I don't have Ava (Didn't all last week

) What I'm finding as I work is that there is much to fix and I'm itching to get to it.

I'm going to have lists of lists to do!

Carlos, *giggles* Yeah, he changed me a lot. I wrote-ed a post about how I don't keep track of dates once (as evidence of how cool a chick I was). It wasn't the bad boy banning that hooked me however, it was....

Anyhow.

Where was I???

Oh yeah, I got banned for reporting regular mail as spam. My phone has a very sensitive roller ball and it accidentally moved on me sometimes when I went to click on something. I had a warning about it, but I thought they were overreacting until a few months later I found out I had sent over a hundred items to spam. SOOOO, I am sure I deserved the temporary lockout. A nice moderator named Robert took pity that it was my birthday and I didn't erase pms for months after that. *lafs*

And I lived in fear for quite some time that my new man

was gonna get banned and I'd surely go off the deep end until he returned.

Babe,

and uhm, what??

Conor,

Thanks for that, but

If I didn't know better I'd think you were flirting with my Wolfie.

Mags, hehehe.. I

it!!

And goooood memory *impressed*

Dare, thanks dude. *trips you into a snowbank and sets your picture of Liv aflame* 'Preciate it.

David,

I'll drink to that.

Dacotah # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 6:45:13 AM

Hi Jen, worried about you. How are you doing?
I might have to have another surgery. I will find out Thursday.

Magsintothedeep # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 1:23:40 PM

I can thank my Catholic Association with Feast Days for that! February 11th is the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes, and, having such a strong devotion to my Spiritual Mama, I remember all of them

Dacotah # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 1:24:22 PM

Magsintothedeep # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 1:28:54 PM

Hi Carol!

Why another surgery?

Dacotah # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 1:30:44 PM

Hi Mags, for more scar tissue that hardened.

He tried to get rid of it in the office last week but it didn't work. Sighs.

Magsintothedeep # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 1:32:07 PM

Must seem like it's never ending.

Dacotah # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 1:37:47 PM

Yep, it sure does, Destiny turns one on the 17th of Feb. and I want to be painfree or in less pain then now by then.
Go see my doctor Thursday about the scar tissue and Friday my lung doctor after breathing tests.

Never ending. I just hope I feel better soon. Don't know how much longer I can take the pain. Out of pain pills which didn't take the pain away, barely relieved it but it was better then nothing at least. Sighs.

Dacotah # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 1:39:44 PM

Sorry Jen, I think I better delete my comments. It's ruining your nice post. Please delete them after you read them Jen.

MinaMinenow # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 2:27:36 PM

I won't erase. Carol, no way! I have been wondering about you. You do realize you likely won't be pain free by Destiny's birthday, right? Another surgery, if needed, sounds like it'd be more minor, and could help relieve your discomfort.

Please take a breath and know that you are held close by your Lord and your friends, and that whatever should be, will be. I know it's hard, but sometimes we must deal with hell to get to heaven.

And I imagine a "normal" day with little pain will be appreciated to the nth degree by you. Praying for you daily. Keep the faith.

Mags, *smiles* I'd like to think knowing me is a spiritual experience, but it sounds as if it at least I picked the right day to be born, so that you remember.

Lucky me.

Hope everything is going well for you also, been thinking about you so much the last few days, don't know why. *smooches*

H82typ # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 3:18:30 PM

@ Carol: damn, that's just a pain... umm...

all over.

We're all praying for you, you know. *hug*

@Mags: "...traditional or modern..."

@ Jen: you're such a girley-girl!

Glad everythings falling into place for you!

MConor # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 5:03:46 PM

What the?

Dacotah # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 5:15:53 PM

Thank you Jen.

HUGS

Dacotah # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 5:16:28 PM

Dennis, thank you. Hug

Magsintothedeep # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 5:20:49 PM

Hey, I just got off the phone with a Jenny from WI (she had a wicked accent)

Knowing you IS a spiritual experience, Jen, and I can't say that about everyone

Were you expecting a bidet, Dennis?

Sorry, people. I'm feeling a bit strange today.

Darkogdare # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 8:18:19 PM

People are strange....

Bad WolfCois # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 8:51:04 PM

Especially the tutu wearing samurai *nods* uh hmmm..

.

And err.. that's not discussed in public ye wily minx..

Darkogdare # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 9:36:38 PM

Magsintothedeep # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 9:49:03 PM

Aren't you going to wrestle him or something, Dare?

Darkogdare # Tuesday, January 19, 2010 9:55:26 PM

*sharpens the sword*

MinaMinenow # Wednesday, January 20, 2010 4:51:32 PM

Dennis

Shuddup!

Conor, hehe go read your original comment and come back with a "what?" I double dog dare you.

Carol, of course you are most welcome, and I really enjoyed our chat yesterday.

Mags, *giggles wildly* making me blush here. Wish it was meeee you had been talking to.

btw, we DON'T have accents but I did chuckle imagining you saying the words "wicked accent"

Dare, I didn't bring up the tutu, but the color does bring out the hues in your eyes.

Babe, sure, I agree, but what if you aren't around for me to ask in another venue?

Miss you.

Magsintothedeep # Wednesday, January 20, 2010 5:12:37 PM

Oh YES you do! And it's wicked

MConor # Wednesday, January 20, 2010 5:14:54 PM

Good god your dirty. I meant I'd be getting teased

MinaMinenow # Wednesday, January 20, 2010 5:40:12 PM

Mags yer a hoot.

*raises an eyebrow* I am Conor? I must have bad influences.

H82typ # Wednesday, January 20, 2010 6:01:55 PM

Conor has a tutu in his closet too?

MarikeMarike79 # Wednesday, January 20, 2010 6:25:33 PM

wow a year already

I'm happy for the both of you
