Why Dating Rocks!

“Shirley, Sam, Fajeh (sp? persian) & Amy (Chinese) Invited me to Dream Night Club on Saturday. Amy was very forward with me while I was flirting with Fajeh on Wednesday.

The Four are Roomates. I'm destined to blow this. I love them all.”

“Talk about sick, The ad generator knows that Bearmagnet can't really get a date, so it doesn't bother to put dating ads on this thread. But it does know that Bearmagnet is always gonna need a new table waiting gig, so the ads on this thread are for waitstaff jobs.”

“What are you talking about? I have 4 dates on Saturday and all I need for transportation is a Taxi. ;)”

“Talk about the ultimate evening once the 5 of you get home!”

“Bet you hoping to be "blown."

LOL... wait, you certainly were thinking that, right?”

“Reminds me of the scene in Love Always where the English dude, who can't find a woman in the UK, decides to buy a plane ticket to some magical place in America called Milwaukee. He walks into a bar there and meets 3 hot chicks who invite him back to their place after apologizing that they are so poor that they cannot afford clothes and that they have to all share one bed sleeping naked.”

“I remember that, LOL.”

“Is this common in Milwaukee?”

“Only for foreign dudes, sorry BM.”

“Persian, huh?

Luxurious carpet?”

“I've been practicing my accents and I hope to let you know about the rug, or lack there of.”

“Yum !!

Maybe they need another roommate.”

“Red "x"? :(”

“Snap

It ain't working

“Oops. The movie is Love Actually. I highly recommend it BTW.”

“I second that recommendation - its a good movie”

“I can't believe it, but I just got a dozen red roses from my guy. Even from all the way over in Afghanistan Jon takes care of me. I am one lucky, lucky girl!

I hope everyone else is have a fantastic Valentine's Day!


I also received a package from Stovestomper today. Did I mention how lucky I am?”

“Jeez what a great guy! Can we send him anything in Afghanistan, or is it impossible?”

“Awww, that's cute. Bit is jealous. j/k guys.”

“I thought I'd send him a fart in a jar and sign it "From Ruby". Then I might have a chance.”

“lol....j/k...”

“I was going to bring this thread back up, but Ruby beat me to it.

I get to brag, too. My girlfriend had flowers delivered to my office. She rules! She was a non-hiker, but she has gone to REI with me twice, done some dayhikes and will go camping/backpacking with me in warmer weather. What more can I ask for?

I am waaayyy more blessed than I deserve. :-)”

“Yes, you can send him stuff if you want. When he gets packages, he usually shares with the other guys in his platoon. His favorite is to get food like tuna in foil packs or the dehydrated venison stew I sent him. Then he doesn't have to eat the stuff they give them. If anyone wants to send anything, email me and I can give you his direct address.

Very funny about the fart in a jar. LMAO”

Which she has paid for, I might add. She bought a tent from me.

Can't have all my 'TT Harem', as lizs calls my TT female friends, mad at me for not sending them all a package. LOL

“I received two dozen red roses today too... from a "Your secret admirer Kevin". There was a nice little poem attached to it too... I'd blush too much to share it with you guys though. There was even a home made wind screen wrapped around my roses... who could have ever sent such a thing.”

“:O

LMAO!!!!!”

“Stovie, is spreading the love. He sent me a veggy romantic poem. It produced a warm feeling in my heart.”

“Damn it DDX!!!

Our special love was not to be spoken of!!!!
;-)

Hey, you gonna make either of the Sipsey or Walls trips? It's time we met.”

“DDX isn't man enough to show up at Sipsey.”

“I'm starting to think DDX is only a poster rather than a hiker, kinda like Her Adorableness. ;-)”

“Heck... I could probably make next weekend. It's justa c ouple of days after my Bday... so I'd be expecting lots of presents from you guys.

My prefered hikign style is covering 12-15 miles in a day from point A to point B. Those bushwacking trips aren't as appealing to me... but I do need to try to make one one day... especially since I've never hiked at sipsey. :o”

“He did sign up for Sipey in Nov, but bailed at the last minute. He has to be real though, because he links pictures. That's the proof, right? OTOH, I don't think anyone has ever actually accused lyra of being a hiker. Apples and Oranges my friend, apples and oranges.

SS - if folks didn't know better, you're trip invite sure sounded like a down low invite. Scary.”

“DDX - I'm eventually planning on getting back to actual hiking trips where I cover more mileage by lunch than most of these recent trips cover in a weekend. I need to get out and do a nice 40 mile, 3 day trip to get my blood flowing.”

“I haven't been hiking since August. :o”

“there are those proof of existance pics again! I need to finish the 40 or so miles of the GA AT that I lack. Neels Gap to Dicks Creek Gap.”

“That's a great section.”

“Winter is my favorite time to hike in the south too.. you can actually see from the tops of the mountains and you don't sweat while trying to sleep unless trying to simulate a thermacare wrap. I missed out on all the good hiking weather this year :(”

“dayhiker - I was about to post a comeback but thought better of it.
Gentlemen never brag.”

“ha! you people are sooo funny...looking.”

“When the leaves come back I tend to migrate up to the Smokies and stay above about 3000'”

“When I stay above 3000 in the smokies that ususally refers to my heartrate...”

“What's wrong with you people? Talking about backpacking on a dating thread? Did you think you were posting on a backpacking forum or something?

Weirdos.”

“Sorry, pix, should we post more personals or something? lol...”

“I guess I've got some splainin to do with why I'm even posting here.

It seems that even my Smokies trips are tame of late.”

“My first Valentine's Day in many many years without an "obligation."

I hope to never have a Valentine's Day obigation again. :)

(Now, someone special to share it with, that I might just be ready for next time around.)

:)”

“Love is not all.
It is not meat nor drink nor slumber
nor a roof against the rain
nor yet a floating spar to men who sink
and rise and sink and rise and sink again.
Love cannot fill the thickened lung with
breath nor set the factured bone yet many
a man is making friends with death even now
as i speak for lack of love alone.”

“Tame, rugged, challenging, peak bagging. Who gives a sheet!? It's about getting out there. Or at least thinking of/planning on getting out there!
I can't believe that I'm finally going backpacking this weekend. It's been a looooonnnnggg time. I'm gonna freeze my arse off and be miserable, but I'm gonna do it! LOL! Maybe I'll get the bug out of my system until spring when it warms up.”

“I got y'all beat, my girlfriend actually backpacks and took me to the Fiery Gizzard this weekend...

Oh the joy of having a girlfriend who hikes :)”
