So guys, it was time for a new thread and here you go Enjoy chatting on.

I'm back from my vacation and it feels good to finally post via laptop again and not that small screen of my phone

Drunk On You

I don't even attempt to try to post from my phone. It's a pain.

Lauren Helen Graham

You know, it wouldn't be a pain if the ForumRunner app would work but it doesn't on my iphone since the IOS 8 update. So I had to use a normal browser on my phone to post and THAT really was a pain in the a**!

Pickle-weasel!

TFTNT Kris. I didn't even notice we had reached 300.

I'll browse on my phone but not big on posting from it.

How are you recovering from being back from vacation? I want to hear about your trip.

Sorry I've been MIA the last couple of days, work has been busy.

Oh but I thought I'd let you know that I'm kind of seeing someone. We've been on 3 dates so far, I think it's going in the right direction, so I'm hoping things work out. I like him.

Lauren Helen Graham

No problem at all.

Same here... About the phone. Posting is really a pain.

I'm recovering okay... Since I have a really bad cold it's not too nice and my doc said I'll have to stay at home the whole next week Afterwards it's only one and a half weeks of work for me again until I have one and a half week off again

I'll tell you about my trip tomorrow but tbh, there is not much to tell besides of shopping, food and being at the beach/pool

No worries, Ria

Aww, that's great news! What's his name, Ria and how old is he? Oh, I'm so curious, I know

Pickle-weasel!

Oh no, you got a cold after your trip as well. Same thing happened to me.

Well that sounds like a really relaxing vacation. I could have used a pool/beach day on my trip.

His name is Patrick and he's 27, same age as me. And random, but he knows and has watched Legend of the Seeker.

Lauren Helen Graham

It sadly wasn't after the trip but happened there already. Sascha caught the cold and I caught it from him.

It was super relaxing Really... We took some pictures which I'll bring over the next couple of days (since I have to stay at home)

Aww, that sounds cool. And how did you get to know him? I keep crossing fingers for you, especially because he saw LotS. Does he read as well?

Pickle-weasel!

Oh no that really sucks.

I can't wait to see your pictures. Sounds like you had a good trip.

I meet him on a dating website. Yes, he loves reading. He's a nerd, like me. We're hanging out on Friday. It's nice because we work the same shift hours.

Lauren Helen Graham

Yes, it really sucks... But it's okay, I'm sure I'll be fine soon again.

I'm kind of in panic because I haven't even one Christmas gift yet!

But Patrick isn't working at the same company as you are, right? Just the same shift in the job he has? Friday you'll see each other again? Great! Any plans for Friday or just hanging out somewhere?

Pickle-weasel!

Oh no! You better get started. I have a few left, I'm waiting for some items to come in the mail otherwise to buy I have my mom (know what I'm getting her just have to buy it), my secret santa in my cousins exchange, a gender neutral gift for our gift exchange at my uncle's, and one friend who I'm getting cupcakes for so I won't be getting that until right before I give them to her.

No, we don't work at the same place, just happened to work the same hours, which is nice. Yep, we don't have any plans, we're just going to hang out after work.

I'm excited. It will be a good week. On Saturday I'm doing brunch with Brent and then on Sunday my family is going to this Christmas light festival that goes on every year. It's the first year we'll go to it, but it looks really cool. I'll take pics and show you.

Lauren Helen Graham

Oh Ria, that sounds good! And cupcakes! Nooooo!!! I wanted to eat one when I'm in the USA and I forgot about it!

And where will you hang out? At your or his place or somewhere neutral?

Oh yes, please! I would love pictures! This festival sounds awesome I wish there was something here like that but during the Christmas time of the year we've a lot great things going on here as well

Pickle-weasel!

Oh no! I forgot about that, I would of told you better you went.

We're hanging out at his place.

Yes I've heard about the German Christmas markets, I think that would be a lot of fun. But I'm excited for the lights, it sounds really cool from what I've seen.

Lauren Helen Graham

How could I forget about it... Damn it! And I forgot to try the root beer as well That's something to add my list for the next time (hopefully 2016).

Does he have his own apartment or does he still live with his parents as well?

Yeah, the German Christmas markets are really great I love them. But yes, the lights at your festival for sure are amazing!

Pickle-weasel!

I forgot about root beer as well, well then I hope you can go back again. Not another trip planned for next year?

No, he has an apartment that he shares with a roommate.

I'll let you know how they are, I'm really excited to see them.

It's been a good weekend so far between my date, having brunch with Brent, and then having dinner today with my gang.

Lauren Helen Graham

Not next year but definitely in 2016 So it's at least something to look forward to. Next year it will be Europe. Okay, I thought about going to NYC for a week or so to stalk the The Blacklist cast while filming

Ah, okay That's pretty cool! How was it?

And the Christmas lights? I can't wait for the pictures.

Wow, you've been really busy. I've been at a birthday today and it was pretty cool. We had lunch and a lot of fun. Besides, yesterday my aunt visited me and in the morning I had an appointment in the beauty salon and at the hairdresser.
