Friday's Feast #168

Appetizer
Which snack do you like to get when you go to the movies?

Large diet soda, large bucket of popcorn. That's all I need baby....and some m&m's from my purse.

Soup
What year did you start using the internet?

1996. We got a connection for $26 per month for FIVE hours a month!!If you went over that, it charged outrageous fees per minute! I didn't find much use for the net. Then we got unlimited hours. And I was on a mission to find people to talk to.

In 1996 I was a stay home mom with tiny kids and no adult friendships to speak of....so that chat room was my connection for friendship. I made many friends there and still keep in touch with several. Anyone else remember the WBS (Webchat Broadcasting System?).

Related tidbit: On Saturday I am meeting up with 2 of the ladies I first met in a WBS Christian chatroom back in '96! I'm driving up to Laughlin, NV. One of them lived, at that time, about 45 minutes away from me in NJ. So I have met her many times. The other one is from Australia! She is coming for some medical tests and is doing a bit of touring around while she is in the States!

Salad
What is your first name in Pig Latin?

Istiechray...or I guess icklcray to you.

Main Course
Name something you are picky about.

I don't like it when people (you all know who you are) leave things all over the kitchen counters. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Dessert
Fill in the blanks: I ____ ____ yesterday and I ____ ____ today.

uhhhh....I am stumped...I never know the answers to these things! ;)

I too love popcorn and diet coke. And isn't it funny how expensive it used to be on the internet? Like cell phone time.

I see you're posting over here more frequently. Welcome back!

I hope your meeting with your old cyber friends was fun. How cool to meet them IRL!
