Long time, no Diz-see! ...sorry, that was lame...

Yah, you missed all the best parts. :lol: In spite of my über-slacking, we still seem to be going strong.

Hurrah Dizi's here.

It has been a loong time. I thought it would be more than 10000 post since then actually.
But happy reading nonetheless. (It just dawned on me that the reason you haven't got more posts to read is because you are not a GH That would mean twice the amount of posts :))

How's life been treating you?

Finally a woman here. And what a one. The abandonware legend. Just when I started to think that this place is going to become an old males' club for discussing nostalgia, computer games and popculture references. :D

Nah, joking. Hi back. :D

On previous topic. Sprained or dislocated, dont know. Poor finger turned purple, but didnt hurt that much and now it only pains when I shake hands with somebody unaware. And it's pink again. Strange I spent my youth playing volleyball quite often and never had dislocated finger... But due to my anti-volleyball height and jumpiness I usually played a role of libero... Maybe that's why.

I also did my first longer bike ride this year. 30 kms doesnt sound great, but counting my laziness, hills nearby Cracow and evergrowing belly... At least I outdid the woman. :D

mmm, malibu. Thanks Chroelle

I think you're right Scythe by what I did read I seem to have missed a lot. Interesting read about the bachelor party though, nice insight :D

As for what I have been up to, not much, work, home, work...few parties, lots of malbu :p Although I am going out tonight and not really looking forward to it for a couple of reasons, but I won't complain about it till tomorrow :D

Although does me being back mean that this place is now going to be an old persons club for discussing nostalgia, computer games and popculture references :p

I would of kissed your finger better if I was here eMTe :)

Sure does...except now it is co-ed! Since we have a female in the inn today, I think I might actually put on pants when I walk around the bar... :lol:

Welcome back, Dizi! Make yourself at home here at the bar, and just ignore that pantsless guy!

Can I get you anything to drink?

You'd be surprised at what has been happening in my life lately, Diz. My girlfriend from the bus line and I are still together, which is great. She and I are thinking of finding a nice place and living together. Plus, I finally got all my computer stuff out of my home and have opened a store in downtown Waukegan! Business is doing very well, too. Sold five computers during the past week, and a printer, and two 20 GB hard drives someone wanted to use for building kids' computers.

Have a round on my tab!

I don't mind the pantsless guy, I lived with 7 guys when I went to uni so I am used to it :p

Thanks for the drink I will have a malibu. Its great to hear that you are doing well RM and I am happy to hear that you and your gf are happy together, I wish you both the best of luck. How long did it take you to move all the stuff to your store?

Took about two weeks, using City trucks and a crew on loan from the city maintenance complex. I had to work around their schedule, so otherwise we could have done it in half the time.

If you put your pants on Pager that means we all will have to... I dont wanna :(
But I could at least keep the towel on...

I hope you are really back Dizi. It would be nice with a womans touch to this place from time to time...

I can't remember if there are any other new regulars than Drasir-Vel since you left, but to him at least I can say that Dizi is a former (hopefully returned) regular and crew. She likes Malibu and playing darts with Maz. She know a thing or two about design and she can be nice if you dont tick her off. :p

The CWF Running team scores yet another win. Helsinki City Run half-marathon in 2:08.

It was my first "race" run, so in that sense that result is pretty good... but like Pater Alf, the target was below 2 hours, so there's something left to aim for next year.

I think my goal on a half-marathon would be to go below 2:15 so obviously that time isn't that bad in my eyes.

Congratulations on completing the run and sorry to hear that you didn't do it in under two hours as well (but at least I still have the best time of the crew). But I tell you, next year we're gonna make it in 1:50!

And I am gonna come in last, draging the score back to normal. God bless stability. :)

Nah...seriously congrats on doing it, and that fast too!

Now we have only to complete a full marathon... Anyone up for that?

And if you do she's nice anyway, so who cares? :p

You guys treat these marathons seriously... I hope not too seriously. I wouldnt want to lose one of fellow cwfers dying of heart attack. You know, dont run them too often. :P

I don't hold a grudge for long though, so even if someone does tick me off I play nice again once I am over it :lol:

Well my night out was interesting, it wasn't bad as I thought it would be so that is a plus. However one of the reasons why I didn't want to go happened, which has left me feeling a little annoyed with myself and my head is in a bit of a spin because of it.... I hate thinking this much :roll:

I was simply trying to scare the newest members in here. Have you seen the amount of games we have on the site now?
