Dear Hopalong:
I imagine you tall, brunnette hair, short hair, kind of courly hair, with sandals and big bermudas, a little overweight not much, sitting at your desk with a bunch of papers and bills to check that you are procrastinating to check, a smile, probably a little round face, maybe a little puffy chicks, thin lips, something like a german person. I have never read about a descrption of you, but I think so much about you that I have completely made an image of you in my mind.
Can you please describe your self for me? And I am not talking like those internet chats that they ask you age sex and location and they aske you what are you wearing ow, etc. Just kidding, I have thought so much about you that I was wondering if you could share a description of your physical appearance. You and CB impacted my life since the first day I joined this board.
Love,
Lupita

Lupita-
I think of Hoppy as having impossibly clear sea-eyes, the French call them "yeux de mer" or some such thing...and an intelligent yet gentle visage.
Love,

Actually, a long while ago, Hops posted her picture here for a second and she was breathtakingly pretty - even more than I had imagined. She has pretty goldish hair, shoulder length, she is thin and her eyes are very kind and beautiful.
Sorry to answer for you Hops :)
Love, Beth

Lupita,
You have a way with words. DON"T DESCRIBE ME-lol Ami
-
lol Ami! I picture Hops as tall also, but with long hair because of her plans to grow it down to her keister as she mentioned on another topic (great plan!), and I imagine she is very gentle in how she does things. Like today, I was trying to get the stroller past this baby activity center and the wheel snagged so I just wrenched the whole thing and it all went askew and the whole time my baby was observing it all and I was being a bad example. I bet Hops doesn't do stuff like that often at all. 8)

Wowsers. Thank you, Lupita. And the rest of you.
My saggy self is mighty grateful for the compliments.
I was going to re-post my mug again but can't find it.
I am going to stop counting my liver spots now.
(And I have had a fellow come into the store and
flirt with me. Then he came back the next day in
a nicer shirt! And it was an hour's drive!)
I was so flustered I shooed him out after a while.
But it was fun.
thanks for the morale boost. It was lovely!

Oh you don't say? I wonder what shirt he will wear next time. 8)

Hoppy-
I told you that I could feel that it was time for us to share you with the world! Just let us vet any propsect, and we will shoo them away f they don't measure up! Poor fellow- he couldn't help but be captivated with your charm! Time to have fun and date up a storm, let them prove themselves while you have fun, Hoppy! I am so excited for you!
Love,
Changing ( Your new chaperone)

I am a little worried that I'll go into a love-starved-beagle routine.
I seem to be resisting that but I also think I've been thinking about him too much.
Not sure what's an appropriate amount of fantasizing.
I am feeling pretty nice about it, though.
I have a feeling I'll be getting to know him one way or another.
(Can't believe I'm even saying that. I have about hied me to a nunnery.)
What appealed to me most (tell me instantly if it's a pink flag!) was that the first time I met him the man could not stop talking. He just kept rambling -- it seemed as though he'd been starved for company and he does live in an isolated area--and I was sort of amazed though pleased too. But when he came back the other day it was as though he'd "gotten it together" and he made more sense. He sat by my desk and we yakked and Googled a few things together and he helped me replace a part on my laptop. I only shooed him out because I didn't want my young male co-workers to notice and maybe say something to the boss. (Not because the boss would be mad but because he has boundary issues and I wouldn't want him aware of my private life.)
Oh hush Hops. Two good flirts do not Destiny make.
Or...
NIGHT LOVES!

Awww

hurrayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Love

Queen Izzy-
I approve of the ring style, though Hoppy may prefer an emerald cut, yellow gold, etc- we will let her decide regarding those details. Now we must think about a dress, party, get cake samples from Beverly Hills, and be on point when the time comes. Whoever the lucky gentleman is that she chooses!!!
She is a darling, and deserves her fun and the admiration that she receives!
Love You,
Changing

Oh changing,
being a fan of solitaires --------------------------maybe these can be melted down and re--formed?
oh no that is gold

Queen Izzy,
We could fashion a tasteful jewelled tiara for you to wear at the wedding as you sit on the bride's side (it would sparkle so in the photos)- we could use the largest stone in the center, and scatter the others about in a random pattern. If you prefer, we could make you and our bride matching necklaces instead!
Love,
Changing

I swear , if that ever happened to me again, and rightly,
it'd be worth renting a jumo jet to get you Brits over here!
And down from Canada, of course...
Hmm. This would indeed be cart before horse.
The man did talk about himself but it was like he needed to.
I was listening with interest and he was telling me about his
dead wife and things; I thought it more like the nervous
chatter of somebody shy who was wanting to connect
and it all came out in a clumsy rush.
But that's what dating's for, innit? To find out who a person
really is? So if he wanted a date sometime, I'd go just for
the delight of discovering.
I must stop fixating. Anticipation's fun, I'm just wary of my old patterns
and don't want to go all swoony when I don't really know who he is.

Hoppy-
I am quite pleased that you are getting back into the swing of things- slowly and sweetly. Just have fun, enjoy the company and the admiration. I am so happy for you.
Love,

Lovely Hop's heart is going ::pitter pat pitter pat pitter pat::....
how nice for you: )
Enjoy it....
::whispering::
I didn't see any red or pink flags ::grin::
-
I have seen Hops too-she is not tall-I am! Beautiful and full of wisdom! Hey if the guy talks about himself and is not arrogant than it is ok I think.
-
Yes, silver is Hopsy's hair. I think it looked golden in the light from the window :)
Hops, if he wears a new shirt, that is sweet. If he wears a dress... well...
No need to worry now, I don't think. No flags... just the beginnings of an acquaintanship. He sounds kind and taken by you :) That is nice.
Kisses, Beth

You can't imagine what a fat head I'm getting.
First the man in red stilletos his nice blue shirt, and now y'all. :)

Hops
When you go on the date-- Can you take off the Bermuda's for an hour or two? Ami
-
Whose Bermudas would those be?
:shock:
:lol:
If that fella wears bermudas with red stilettos I'm calling What Not to Wear... same goes for you Hops....
-
OMG! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Stacy would slaughter me.
I keep wanting to write them and challenge them to advise someone how to look Fashionable in Comfortable Shoes. Don't they know anybody with a bad back who can't wear any heels at all, and moreover, gave them up years ago as designed for GOATS, not human feet??
(A favorite rant...)
xo
Hops
-
For real... whose toes are all pointy and weird like that??????????? But, gosh, I do love to see heels.
-
Keep the big Bermudas on with a big belt
-
Does What Not to Wear have a hotline number?

I remember seeing a female comedian..... yeeeeaaaars ago.....
She was 40'ish... very funny, lol.
She was talking about dating later in life.
Again.
'After a while it's hard to do that coy... OHHHH this is so SPEEECIAL kind'a thing.... eventually you're like......
This is me naked, this is me clothed. Make up your mind'

:mrgreen:
Sheesh. I loved it (not) when my laaaaaaast NexBF told me solemnly, I'm just not sure you're right for me.
l should have immediately said, Sounds as though you really have doubts. So I'll be leaving now, and if you make up your mind by ___, let me know, and I'll be glad to listen if I'm still available. Instead I said whhyyyyyy, and he said, "Um, well, you have this back problem..."
This man was bald, mildly overweight, allergic to everything, and due to prior surgery his, ahhh, equipment, ahhh, well, you get the drift. I was very very understanding affectionate loving affirming supportive unselfish...aaarrgghh.
Anyhow, that evening I had a premonition of good mental health. I stood up immediately and put on my shoes and said (calmly), I feel angry. He had no idea why on earth I would be angry. So I gritted my teeth and politely told him, You don't find fault with someone for something they can't HELP. He looks puzzled. I said, umm, well, for example, it would be as though I found fault with you for going bald or suffering the aftereffects of cancer.
The light bulb went on and he said, I'm sorry. But the jig was pretty much up and it was over about a week later.
Thank the LAWD.
Dunno why I'm reminiscing but it's sooooo nice to realize how far I've come. It'll be 3 years this Xmas I've been a sensible sober and celibate! And I am NOT attracted to Ns any more!
Vroom vroom. (But yes, CB, presuming anyone's after my jiggly self--they will have to be patient. My Bermudas will stay on until madras is back in style.)

I'll betcha dance boy still thinks you're gonna come crawling to him with the besssssst sex he's ever in his life had, Lupita.
He's nothing to get upset about. It's understandable that after allll that waiting, you finally decide to say yes.... you'd be upset when he gets all coy and says NO. Blech Lupita... on to bigger and better people.
