Russell's Proposal

Fess up! I had you going there for a second, didn't I?

No doubt, you've come here from some website where I've put up a bogus story about a marriage proposal from Russell to me.

Who knows!?! One of these days, it might really happen, but I was just having a little fun with you this time around!!!

Hope you thoroughly enjoyed this April Fool's joke!!! Now, I'm going to tell you something that ISN'T an April Fool's joke, and that is that Russell's one wonderful guy, so I hope that you'll visit his websites:

Russell Online

Youth Outreach International

Professor Cool (designed by him)

Ken & Daddy

Here's a picture (taken in 1982 or 1983) of my dad and one of my "adopted" big brothers, Ken. Ken (who passed away in October of 1992) and I met early in 1972 when I was in college. The dean of women thought that I was an ant farm short of a picnic, so it was suggested to me by a friend that I consult one of his instructors in the behavior sciences department, who also happened to be a counseling psychologist (Dr. Kenneth Merck). This just goes to show how God will use life's challenges (in this case, dealing with conflict caused by certain people judging me instead of taking the time to understand me) to bring about blessings (a beautiful friendship!)!

In the years since early 1972 until his passing almost 21 years later, Ken and I have both been there for each other in the high, low, and in-between moments of our lives, and I feel so blessed to have known him and look forward to our reunion one of these days.

Currently Designing New Sig-Block, So I'm Storing Last One Here...

I'm not even sure what this sig-block is at the moment, because I'd had it turned off for awhile, but all I know is that I'm in the process of designing a new one, so I'm putting the old one here...

Russell & Rascal--Guess Who's Who! LOL

Kimberly

Candice

Russell (duh?)

Roger

Jacqui

Other very important names have been mentioned as well--and I hope that you'll pay extra-special attention to one of those names: Teresa

For days on end, I've been promising to get back here with a piece of writing called I Hope He Says "Yes!"

Well! I've finally done just that!

The writing kinda took on a life of its own--growing from what was originally meant to be a simple blog-entry with a hyperlink or two thrown in for good measure to what would pass for a mini-website!

Of course, it was originally simply going to be a review of a piece of writing even before I decided to make it a blog-entry.

I wonder if the guy in question will say "Yes!"

I have the feeling that he probably will after our conversation tonight--in fact, after previous conversations and e-mails as well.

He's amazing, and I feel so close to him!

Anyway, without further ado, here's what I wrote:

Click Me!

Happy New Year!!! (Late But Always Appropriate!)

Go here to read my New Year's Resolution essay!


(and beyond!)

Especially For--And About--Russell!

Originally appeared as a bulletin for people on my MySpace friends list. For that reason, the first link won't come through for you unless you're a member of MySpace and, also, on my friends list. However, the other link should open just fine and dandy! Please don't neglect to open it, because I'd really love for you to meet my special friend, Russell.

Picture is a message to Russell and the bulletin is a message to you!

An

interesting question came through bulletins just a little bit ago, and

I'm going to answer it! I think you'll like my answer.

First off, here's the question: Click Me!

Although

I'm not really looking for love online, I can vouch for this company,

because someone I know used it, and he's found somebody really

special. He had been lonely for quite sometime. He kept meeting the

wrong women--everything from nice women but not for him to players--and

got into a marriage (?) where only his son was a true blessing from

it. His girlfriend (the first one after he and his wife called it

quits) ended up dying in a wreck. He ended up dating her sister for

awhile, but it really wasn't a lasting match. But it was through this

service that he met the lady whom he's now seeing.

As for my OWN experience with love online, I'm going to give you three examples of it.

First off, I had an Internet romance a little over six years ago. Didn't work out. Enuf sed...

Then,

there's the case of wondering where some blast from you past is now.

The Internet has helped me to track down several of those--and one of

them tracked me down. Nothing romantic about these meetings, as the

men have usually been married. It was just neat to catch up with

people.

Finally, there's the case of finding love online of a different kind!

This

man and I have become very close to each other, but it's not that kind

of close--even though it's possible that we might have as much as a

small crush on each other--but, instead, the kind of close as in

sharing the same kinds of dreams and believing in each other.

I

want to share his website with all of you, because I believe in his

dream and believe that the dream is worth believing in for everybody.

When you click on this link,

you aren't going to be taken to some place where I'm trying to sell you

some kind of merchandise or get you involved in some kind of make money

online thingie (though I do such a thing when the time is right).

Instead, I'm going to sell you on this guy and his dreams. He's one of

the most amazing people I've ever met!

So, click on the link and

get to know this beautiful soul! You won't be sorry! If you get the

chance, let me know what you think...

Happy Birthday, Michelle!!!

Sportsmanship At Its Best! (Part Two)

For some odd reason, my original post started acting weird to where I couldn't edit it, so I've decided to make a link to it here and then go on and finish what I was saying--that being that the other person shared a story that might not have been accurate so far as the secondary facts go.


However, the important (primary) part of this story is absolutely-true, because there WAS such a little boy who was reached out to that day by more capable, young athletes.
