Sad Is something wrong?

Is this just me, or do I not have a very wide attention span abound fellow FOL posters? I don't mean to sound rude, but I am just concerned about my posts. I tried to get something out of my promo message ( and try to get you to discover a great website) but it seems I have not been kindly offered. My fan fiction is down the tiolet (or gone from the recent posts of FOL Fan Fiction) and I'm sorry, but I'm just concerned. I am planning to be a director when I grow up, in movies and TV sitcoms. Maybe even writer, creator, even actress! I'm just worried I won't be able to make any friends here. But if I'm wrong, please tell me I'll be happy to know.
BTW, I posted at the General Sitcoms Discussion board about a sitcom petition idea (see that board for more details) and I wanted to tell you, to just call me Mary. Covey is my last name (I was dumb enough as an 11-year-old to do such a thing) but I'll give you options on what to call me:
1.Mary
2. Emily (it's my middle name, that's okay, right?)
3. Emily Ann (Ann, BTW, is in no shape or form apart of my name, but why not?
4. Jo and Blair (Jo rox!)
5. Mary Of Eastland (That would be cool!)
6. 80'schild (despite the fact I was born in 1989)
BTW, jayman75, I was BORN in Bloomington, Indiana. Cool, huh?

------------------
Michelle: "How out of it was I?"
Jesse: "Well, you were pretty out of it. And, it felt like apart of you was missing...like apart of all of us was missing. But, we stuck through it and made it through.
Joey: "Just like we always do."
Danny: "Just like we always will."
--------
"Whatever."~Duane
--------
"How Rude!"~Stephanie Tanner

Blair:"I can't believe it. A man is downstairs and completely ignoreing me!"
Jo (evilly)"And they said it couldn't be done!"

"That's tuna, manyonaise, and something crunchy. Name something crunchy!"~Blair Warner

"There are two things in this world we do not laugh about. The Yankees, and what Roy did to me!"~Jo Polnizchek

Charles: Did she buy it?"
Walter: "She bought it."
Ellen: "I didn't buy it."

Hi Mary,

My name is Amy. Welcome to the board. You'll find that everyone is very nice. Just give us a chance.

That sounds great about being a writer. That's my dream as well! I have an email address in my profile if you ever want to chat or need anything at all.

Take care,

Amy

Mary,
I'm almost positive nobody is ignoring you on purpose. If there are mulitple topics that someone wants to read, sometimes the first topics will get overlooked in a rush to read the others. Good luck in your future career as a directer and writer, and if you ever want to e-mail me sometime (at ChristinaKML@AOL.com) I'd love to chat.

Take care,
- Christina -

Mary,
I am sure no one is ignoring you on purpose...You just have to jump in a reply to people messages and that's how they get to know you..I have tried to tell my brother this a few times because he also thinks people ignore him on purpose... Take me for instance I haven't even seen you around talking or anything (That I remember) so Welcome to the Message board..Sense I haven't said that yet..hehe..If you would like to talk or anything e-mail or IM me.. JinnyExstead@aol.com ..Hope to see you around!!

Mary -

Me too, I'm sorry you feel left out. But don't worry because I'll add some more fan fic, and possibly beg everyone else to add too. (Trust me I'm a good beggar when it comes to fan fic and stuff: ask my friends!)

Also, keep up the good work! I like the fan fic it so far!

Don't worry. You won't be left out for long!

The funny thing is I want to be a director as well!;-) But seriously, like others have said, just jump right in. I really don't think anyone is avoiding your topics on purpose. Feel free to email me, my email address is in my profile.

Thank you, so much, you guys. I feel a lot better now. And it's neat to think that a lot of you have the ambitions I'm working to achieve! By the way, if you want, check out the General Questions and Dicussion Board for my sitcom petition post. It seems from what I read (in the Nick At Nite has lost its Classic TV image, and Revenge Of The 80's threads) that we have a lot in common! My email's ncovey@hsanet.net (it's my dads, can't have my own yet ) hope to talk soon!

Hi! I'm Danielle, and welcome to the board! I hope you don't think we're hopelessly infatuated (Spelling?) with FOL. If you keep hanging with us you will be too! Have a great time!

------------------
T: Oh no! She's right! Sweet little me IS a mass murderer! But I don't remember any of it. Multiple personalities! That's gotta be it! Six faces of me! Each face responsible for a different death! Andy, George, Natalie, Blair, Beverly Ann, Jo.
B: And then there was Tootie!
T: AAAAHHHHH! Blair! But... I thought you were...
B: Dippity-dooed? That's what I wanted everyone to think! That made it easier to get rid of the rest of you!
T: You? You're the murderer? Blair, that's so inconsiderate!
B: Don't you see? That's part of my plan to eliminate everyone who falls under the fifty percent tax bracket!
T: But we were your friends!
B: My friends don't wear polyester! They don't drive motorcycles or ramblers! They don't buy their shoes from the supermarket!
T: I get mine from Paris, honest!
B: Face it, Tootie! You're hopelessly middle-class!
T: Blair! Blair! Please, wait! Please! Blair! Oh no! AAHH!
BA: No, please, please! No! Don't kill Tootie! No!
N: Beverly Ann, wake up!
BA: Don't drink the cocoa!

Here's another great hint if you're starting out new, I did this way in the beginning when I started (and this was when I was FOLluveralways!, I can't tell you *when* that was because it was so long ago, LOL!):

Just start posting! If you want, write a "I'm new", but just get into it and b4 u know it you're in!

------------------
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Andy: OK, tell me what things were ruined. One pen... one jean jacket...
Jo: What do you mean, one jean jacket?
Blair: Andy... that's a delicate topic!
*~*~*~*~**~~*~*~*~*~*~*
Blair: Turn Blue!
Jo: Her best shot - you see that, her best shot!
