if you don't mind me asking, are you currently based in the uk?

Would that be "Street Meat" or "Russian Tea Room" style? Either way, sounds like a blast. I've always wanted to see NYC. A stopoff at LaGuardia was the closest I've ever come.

The only people Iv'e ever met from the online world, were the people I went out with when I was on one of those online dating services. I'm still in touch with a couple of them.

As far as who I'd like to meet one day, there are plenty. Allison is planning to visit Portland sometime this year, and I'll hopefully get to meet her. As for other people, there are plenty, mainly Janice, Tara, Lauren, Cathie, Mattie, and Jen. There are others, but those are the first that come to my mind. If any of you ever plan on visiting Oregon, let me know, cause I'd love to meet any SO'er.

Meet too - I'd be up for meeting anyone if they're ever planning a trip to Toronto.

I still can't believe we both ended up here! What are the odds?

Man, almost 8 years now since we both registered at YL.

I know, it really is strange how we both ended up here, and even stranger how quickly time has gone by. When we met, we were both teenagers, and now you're in your mid 20's, and I'm fast approaching 30.

It baffles my mind when I really think about it. Time sure is a crazy thing!!

If any of yall get in the Michigan area let me know. Maybe we could meet.

I am indeed. I will be off to the States in late June, however, due to return in mid-July. Hopeuflly they'll let me back in! (I have an American passport which expires several days after my return date.)

Nope, but I've been close to a few people I met here for so long that it'd be crazy for us to not meet someday. We talk about it once in awhile, but some of us are still a bit too young and our parents would be like...uh...no.
