[Road Scholar]

[TOhioLiberal]

[flvegan]

9. I got 1 today.

Nobody loves me.

You know, if any of those PMs are pics of sexy DUers, you could up my PM count by sending them my way. Just sayin'...

[Guava Jelly]

13. Dude!!! you my dog an all!!!

[bicentennial_baby]

10. Record? Oh, 50+

But, I happen to have 2 SO's on this site, sooooo :)

[Guava Jelly]

14. Jeebus!! thats a boatload!

And very cool actually!
I would have to pull an allnighter to match that.
And find enough nighthawks that liked me :)
But working 2 jobs and being 40 puts a damper on all that.
You are well liked around here I think.

[bicentennial_baby]

17. So I hear...

:P

:pals:

[ZombieNixon]

11. A lot.

But...when you use DU as a primary method of communication with your SO...shit, I just broke the rules, didn't I? :P

[Guava Jelly]

[Writer]

12. Glad to have been a part of your record!

[Guava Jelly]

20. shhhhhhhhhhh!!

[KitchenWitch]

18. zero today, maybe 10-12 as a record.

[mzteris]

19. I think I got 17, too!

In all the years I've been here! (And probably half of those were snarky and most of the rest were fundraiser ones from Skinner. . .)

:cry:

[texas1928]

23. I may get one every three months.

And those are from Skinner. So, I suck.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

24. Per DAY?!

I think I get one a month if I'm lucky. I guess I have no close friends on here, even though I'd love to. I'm kinda bummed now and feel like a total isolationist. :evilfrown:
Duckie

[reyd reid reed]

27. I have no idea...

sometimes I'll go days without any at all...then at other times I barely get out of my inbox.

When girly-poo decided to take her little 'vacation', I was probably averaging fifty a day. Y'all kept me sane through that week. I've never in my life seen such an outpouring of care, concern and support.

Ever.

:hug::hug::hug:

[Guava Jelly]

29. I remember that very well.

You have returned the favor to a lot of Duers me included.
:loveya: :hug:

[Briarius]

[Deja Q]

32. Record in one day, 19. Average, 3/week. Today, 0.

:D

[Guava Jelly]

35. See you got my ass topped!

Mr friggen popularity!!

[BikeWriter]

36. *Sniff!* Showoff!

[WI_DEM]

34. Once in a blue moon, Oh and when Skinner PM's everybody about donating during a drive.

[BikeWriter]

37. Whew! You don't want him contacting you for anything else!!!!!!!1111

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

38. Jesus fucking Christ. 73 fucking PMs in one day.

Holy shit.

[Guava Jelly]

39. You need Help!!!!!

Or to sleep sometime :)
Damn that's a ton!
Miss Popularity!!
:hi:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

40. Well, it was on election day.

Actually, I'm only popular with one person. Now we just use AIM.

[LostinVA]

41. Grrrrr

[Guava Jelly]

42. One is all it takes

I think you are far more popular than you think.
:7
just imho

[crim son]

43. I regularly receive only one or two PMs a day.

A record might be ten, maybe twelve. It's because nobody loves me and really, I don't mind. :cry:

[Guava Jelly]

45. Awww Crim my I wuv you

Don't make me talk baby talk cuz I knows hers hates that :7
Today was just a freak of nature i think.

[crim son]

54. I wuv you too :)

I even wuv the baby talk, I just can't do it :pals: :hug:

[BarenakedLady]

48. Oh come on!

Just mine alone must put you over 10 at least per day. I'm a big old whiner. hehehe

How have you been? Haven't heard from you in awhile!:hug:

[crim son]

53. That's my point!

I haven't heard from you in a while!

I'm fine, just incredibly busy because I've left all my shopping, baking, cleaning etc. until this week and my parents arrive on Thursday. How are you, sweetie?

[BarenakedLady]

58. I'm ok

I've procrastinated on everything too. Our shopping isn't done. I did get most of my cards out today. I have to pack myself and three kids for a week in RI by Friday am when we leave. Have to get the dogs updated on their kennel cough. Get gifts for all the teachers, bus drivers, blah blah blah. No looking forward to any of the next week really. Unless I get a chance to go out with my girlfriends while I'm in RI. Let's hope!

Nice to see you again chiquita!

:hug:

[crim son]

59. We are, out of necessity, really paring down the gift list this year.

It's great! I did almost all my shopping this morning/afternoon and I couldn't believe it. I even found the gumball machine Henry wants (little guy). But you reminded me that I have to do Christmas cards tonight and tomorrow. Blech. It's gonna be close this year. Today while out shopping I met the friend whose party I missed on Friday. I still had her gift in the car (she's lucky I didn't drink the booze part of it) so I made her wait outside TJ Maxx while I brought it to her. It saved me a trip! :hug: :loveya: I hope you get to see some friends, too. All family and no friends is... blah.

[SPKrazy]

61. All Family And No Friends Is BLAHHHH!

That's where I'm at my friend

I'm snowbound-sort of. Didn't rent a car this year, so I'm not able to leave as much as I'd like to.

It's cold, I'm restless, I'm snowbound, and it's supposed to snow even MORE!

Help, I can't breathe!

:banghead:

[crim son]

62. We have no snow on the ground, and it wasn't even cold today.

At least it's *seasonal* weather where you are! I'm going to be stuck in the house with my parents, my kids and the STBE husband. Cozy :( I know what you're going through.

[SPKrazy]

63. We Can All Have A Merry

f'in Christmas!

Matthew is what it's all about this year, and my Dad.

We'll make it!

:puke: :eyes:

[crim son]

64. I'm starting to get in the mood for it.

My STBE husband and I have agreed to exchange small gifts so that everybody feels comfortable. You can do it if you just look at the whole thing through your son's eyes, as you say you will. And try to think a bit of the meaning behind the holiday season too. What the hell :shrug:

[SPKrazy]

68. I'm Trying!

We are exchanging smaller gifts

We've let Matthew open some gifts here in Colorado since he has nothing else to do because it is like 8 degrees outside.

The reason for the season. Oh don't get me started. I will just say that it is a time to remember others that are less fortunate than you are, and to show appreciation to your most precious loved ones in your life.

How's that?

:woohoo:

[crim son]

73. That's the reason I was thinking about.

I'm not a Christian as you know, but I can still bask in the happiness that family, food, and warmth give.

[SPKrazy]

97. I Get It

I'm not sure what I am but Christmas is for kids.

and family:hug:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

66. I love ya like a fat kid loves cake!

:hug: :hi:

[NC_Nurse]

46. That's more than I've ever gotten.

Oh well....:-)

[BarenakedLady]

47. 13 today
