I was left out too, **Nymysys**. Maybe we should form a club or something.

Woo-hoo!

Not only did I get kissed by **Rosebud** (smooch back BTW, ya little cutie, you!), but I got to see her and **Nymysys** kiss! Now there’s a nice mental image to fall asleep by!

Well, I TOLD you I was forgetting someone! (Nym, you were included in my smooch to my chat sweeties. I was having a hard time remembering who I had named otherwise, and couldn’t remember who all I SO enjoy chatting with)

Smooches to:

**Nymysys  
Crunchy Frog  
Oldscratch  
Rasa  
Rosebud**

And I am probably still forgetting someone. My memory is not what it used to be.

And see, there he is in black and white, and I forgot sk8tie, too!

Me BAD!

Smooches AND hugs to **sk8trxtx** and I know I spelled it wrong but I figured you’d appreciate that more than Trixie!

Ok I have to add a few smooches…

**oldscratch** again, just cuz. 2 more weeks…

**Nen** too, for putting up with my incessant teasing. You’ll always be my Snow Angel, babe. 😉

**Tymp** gets one for appreciating me, and for putting me on The List. And for making me raise my eyebrow in curiosity more than once.

**Kilgore Trout** , who is amazing and uses words like “supraspinatus” regularly.

**edwino** , for having the… oddest, most charming conversational style around. And he plays the sitar!

I’m sure I’ll think of more. Carry on.

Kilgore Trout, Pipeliner, (cause they are both Canadian) Montfort, (cause he is such a sweetie and plies me with flattery), Coldfire (because he is Dutch too). And… oh…hey…it’s Christmas, smooches all around!

Damnit! I forgot the main reason I opened this thread again!

Mad props, x’s and o’s to **Crak’dOff** , for being kind, generous, and willing to put up with me as a houseguest for 3 whole days. Not to mention for taking care of oldscratch till I get there. You rock, man.

No complaining, **Ogre**. Two smooches is better than none.

Which makes you more kissable than me. 😉

**Rob!**

I am SO glad you are back! I lost my oldest brother two years ago to cancer, and his name was Rob. So I have always had two soft spots for you in my heart. For yourself, because you are a darling, and because you bear my brother’s name. And I loved him SO much!

Smooches to you, too! And a hug, hug, hug. That makes three, two for you, and one for Rob in heaven. (Rob is in heaven with my mom, so he gets hugs regularly. My mom is a world champion hugger, I hope that I inherited it from her)

**Scotticher** , thank you. That is one of the most beautiful things anyone has said to me, and one of the most moving things. I really wish I could say more, but it’s just such a beautiful sentiment that it’s left me a little…well…silent.  
I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. My aunt, the aunt that was one of the only people to support me when I went into film, is currently battling cancer.

_silent\_rob gives Scotticher another smooch and a great big hug_

It’s true that the Florida ladies of the SDMB (particularly **GolfWidow** , **Michi** , **Screech-Owl** and **TroubleAgain** ) treat me with a kindness and affection far beyond my meager deserts.

But they, and you, and everyone else know that you’re my favorite:

“thou knew’st too well  
My heart was to thy rudder tied by the strings,  
And thou shouldst tow me after: o’er my spirit  
Thy full supremacy thou knew’st, and that  
Thy beck might from the bidding of the gods  
Command me.”  
–Antony and Cleopatra, Act 3, Scene XI
