First!!! Whoopee!!!!

Girl, you got pimped!! Your place looks AWESOME. I love the font. I love the graphics. I love the style. I LOVE IT!!!!

Wowee -- lookit yer fancy-schmancy new digs!! I'm jillis! (A'course, if'n I did git me one-a these here updates, I'd never be able to navigate my way around it. So, it's jestus well. I shore do lahk lookin' atchyers, though!)

Nice work, EUD!

Your new site looks wonderful. Good job not-so-evil-Uncle Dave. I love the new banner. Again let me say... that poor turkey. :)

Ahhhhh! Look at you Sis, you all sparkly and shiney new. I LIKE IT!!!!

Well done EvilUncleDave, WELL DONE!!! You brought her out of the darkeness and into the light.

It’s wonderful! I am envious.

I love the fact that "Hope" is front and center. Awesome look and very fitting for you.

Hi Gumby!

How many free counseling sessions did you give to Evil Uncle Dave for this?

Susie it looks great! Well done EvilUncleDave!

:)

totally freaking fabulous

Love the shiny, new, fresh smell in here. Love what is done to the place. Its making me feel all warm and fuzzy, nearly makes me want to break out a blog of my own, but I'm still too chicken.

Susie, it's beautiful! I always use IE and had to scroll way down to get to your posts! Now I don't have to AND I get to wave at Gumby!

Wow! I'm loving the new look. Evil Uncle Dave did a great job.

Evil Uncle Dave...we should all be so evil.

What a great remodel! You'd think Ty Pennington had been here. Did you cry when they moved the bus?

The waving Gumby...I'm all choked up...

Vey nice! almost thought i was in the wrong place, for a second-then I saw gumby:)

YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST! THANK YOU FOR BEING SO SWEET, AND HAPPY FOR ME!

eclectic, you get the prize for being the first customer at the grand re-opening. I'll let you know when I figure out what it is.

kalki, I know! I love it, too! Thank you!

august95, I love it, too. EUD picked all the pictures, just to give me an idea, and they were perfect, I didn't change them. And guess what? I CAN put different pix in some day, if I want! Is he great or what?

mrtl, thank you, darlin'. I'll be over to see you. I think you're the only one I'm checking every day now; no one else is about to give birth any time.

greenie, you are a hoot. Out of the darkness . . . And I told you about the first time in the email. This was WAY better ;) And thank you, my love, for your humorous contributions to my announcement, here.

ssnick, thank you. But do not covet thy neighbor's blog ;)

william, Aw, thank you. Just between you and me, I learned some things, and then I promised not to have him involuntarily committed if he'd do certain things for me . . .

emma, hi, welcome, and thank you :)

JR, you would know "totally freaking fabulous." Thanks, sweetie.

katietoyboy, I was chicken for a long time. You'll jump in some day :)

squirl, oh, honey, that was so annoying. I didn't know what to do about it, so I switched to Mozilla. I'm so thankful you even kept visiting. And I'm thankful that EUD rescued me from that ;)

JOMAMA!, thank you! It's good to see you. How's your little guy doing?

bucky, this is why you are my fiance. Last night, I wanted to say to Dave, "Busdriver, MOVE THAT BUS!" But I didn't know if he'd get it. Isn't Ty cute? And buildy? The waving Gumby is pretty special, huh? *sniff* He's come so far in blogworld, since he first climbed the A-1 bottle :p

dawn, good, I knew keeping him was good. He's like a lighthouse, helping you find your way here, huh? Or not . . . I hope you're feeling better today :)

shoshie, you know, I visited the Biltmore House over the summer, and they had waving Gumbys, and dog butts in glasses, too! You are so right! Oh, yes, bring Sam. Hmmm, I have always served wine and cookies, here. I'll really have to upgrade my menu to go with the new decor ;)

Wow! This is beautiful! I LOVE it! Your previous design was nice, but this is JUST WAY COOL!

No wonder you're shouting it from the hills!!

Excellent work Evil Uncle Dave!

Blovely, Susie. Blovely. Me so jealous.

It's lovely! Way to go notsoeviluncledave! and Susie!

This is COOL! Very nicely done! Don't you love remodeling? And I LOVE the new curtains!

I'm LOVING the new look--the first thing I noticed was Gumby waving--that's so cool!

I'm impressed--I have to say!

This is just the best, there is no doubt about it. I am filled with envy . . . Uncle Dave who can't be that evil, to give you such a cool remodel. It is gorgeous and just fabulous. Feels kind of like a while you were out kind of thing. Oh good, I see you left my comfy chair here for me!

WONDERFUL new look, Susie! I'm just thrilled for you.

And I totally waved at Gumby. I mean, after all, he's Gumby, dammit!

Love and hugs to you, my friend.

upon first look I thought I had strolled into the wrong place. But the place looks absolutly awesome. Totally inviting...not that it ever wasn't inviting, but now even more than before.

I think eventually I'm gonne have to do something like that-

Oh, I should have known Evil Uncle Dave had something to do with it when I saw the WTF turkey in the banner. (Seriously, I did wonder.)

This is really looking good. Of course, I wouldn't want Dave to get a swelled head, so I think I'll go and tease him about his Wayfarers now. ;-)

I likey what you've done with the place! The royal wave by Gumby is so sweet.
And I was going to ask about the gravatars but found them over here in the Post a Comment room.
Nice work!

Where the hell am I ?

This is great Susie. Evil Dave did right smart good by you.

Now then, I suppose you wanna hear about My First Time (?)

Woohoo! I LOVE IT! And I'm jillis too :) I've had the SAME FREAKIN' DESIGN you had since I started too, and I'm getting a bit tired of it myself. Your new place looks great!

ck, thank you! You're always doing cool stuff at your place. Now I feel like a cool kid, too :)

crayoneater, oh go on. You have skillz of your own, over at your place. Thank you, though.

traci, thanks, welcome back :)

jim, yes, the curtains finally match the carpet! (what?)

effie Gumby noticed you, too :)

nikki, aw, thank you. I'm glad you smiled. And I'm really happy to see you and shoshie today :)

nina, aw, that's so sweet. I'm glad it still feels comfy. It does to me, too!

ladybug, love and hugs backatcha, and thanks!

twixie, what a nice compliment. That's one of my favorite words when applied to a realworld OR a blogworld home -- that it's inviting.

karen, that's a good point. These people are saying awfully nice things. If, indeed, his head explodes, he will be of no further use to me; yea, go tease him ;)

mrsDoF, well, yea, sure, the gravatars, I mean, of course. (I'm glad you didn't have to ask me about them, because I don't know what they are.)

hippo, I would wager that is not the first time you have asked that question ;)

hoss, oh hell yes, we would all love to hear about your first time. Do tell!

andrea, I know, isn't it great?! I did really like the old template when I chose it. And did you know, that our template was the one that the famous Kristine used to use, too? Yep, when I started blogging, that's what she had.

Beautiful! I love it!!

**waves at Gumby**

You think you're hot snot now, doncha? Doncha?

So very cool! I love it!
Congrats on the Grand Re-Opening!

Can Gumby see me, I'm waving..... Sight looks great, and I didn't know we were judged by what our sight looks like.....I was always trying to up date mine, and make it cutesy, but decide, hey it's ok, i'll stick to the writing... and I never minded your last sight...but this one is cute.....

sharkey, thank you! Now I can stop coveting your fancy banners :)

girl.a, insert lewd dancing here *ahem* Doncha wish your blog was HOT like mine? Doncha? DONCHA?
heh heh, that reminds me, I meant to ask Dave to make that song play when people come in here . . . and, you reminded me of a post I think I'll write . . . doncha doncha

lawbrat, thank you! Yours was one of the sites I looked at and asked Dave, "Hey, can you do this...?" So thanks for the inspiration :)

lisabeth, yep, still Susie, for better or worse :) Gumby is waving at you AND the little Johnny Mathis baby!

judyp, yes, Gumby sees you. I think it's kinda like the old Romper Room show . . . did you have that? I don't think I was judged by my site before; I was just really bored with it, and the pix I put in were too big in IE, the site went screwy. And EUD took pity on me :)

summer, thank you, love! I am very much like a kid with a new toy, today. A toy that I still don't know much about operating, but I sure do like to look at it :)

Gravatars are the cute little pictures some people have figured out how to put in with their name in Comments.
I believe Gumby happens along with you.

It looks beautiful! Of course, right as I was taking it all in, my bird walked across the keyboard and did something weird to the fonts. But what I saw before that happened, I liked!

Shoshie called me into her den to
view this new look. She won't let
me read all the remarks here. Quite
creative, and pleasing to the eye.
I am not fond of clutter and this is
very well organized.

Sam

SHAWEET! Very nice. Lovely calming colours. Perfect for you.

Lovely new look, dear. But even better ... it's still the same ol .. er .. familiar Susie.

I win!! I win!! I'm so excited!! ***waving to Gumby***

You look soooo great! Eviluncledave did a great job with you!

Who has the sexiest blog in all of the blogosphere?
YOU DO!

and can I say it? please? come on...let me say it...

IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME!

If you would have let me do the one with the gumby and pokey doing porn positions blog template I made...yeah, not so good huh?

YAY!

mrsDoF, oh, OK. Are they called avatars, too? I saw that word somewhere.

ern, that image makes me laugh :) Thank you!

chchchchia, you are too good to me, girlie.

sam, thank you! Why won't that mean ol' Shoshie let you read? I think she's afraid you're going to start blogging, and then she'd have to cook and heaven only knows what else. tsk tsk I will be sure to pick up all the clutter here before you all come over for dessert some day. Pssst, Sam! What do you do?

kranki, you can't imagine how happy I am to see you out strolling the streets of blogworld :) I love how you say "colours."

nilbo, my OLD friend, thanks ;)

eclectic, Gumby's excited, too! (No, wait; that's at Bucky's. Never mind.)

cori, I KNOW! Thank you. Now, if he only did hair . . .

princesskristine, hold onto that one, you never know . . . Plenty of Gumby sex at Bucky's today, have you seen?

nikki, yes, my friend, Gumby is always delighted to have your company. And your comment makes me feel very happy, and I thank you for that.

I'm waving right back at Gumby!

Good job evil uncle and congrats susie.

Oooooo, oooooooh!!!!! Guess what I know?? I know what Sam does for a living!!! I know, I know!!!! And I'll tell ya, if you want to know, too, but you'll have to ask nicely.

Oh, it's yummy. Me likey. Me want.

I love it, love it, love it. No longer do I have to scroll for days to get to the good stuff. Sorry I aint been around too much but I've been sick with the flu and didnt want you to catch it.
You know I luz ya.

Well, I finally have my 5 guilty pleasures posted! WooHoo!

Still lovin' the new look of Susie!

Oh I like it! I wasn't sure I was in the right place at first until I saw the Gumby, and then Biscuit in the banner pic.

shoshie, I was just a little frustrated this morning, but I've moved on. But I'm so thankful that you, and Neil and Sam were willing to come to my rescue. Hmmmm, if Sam was going to come and kick some ass on my behalf . . . I've GOT IT! He's in the Ass-Kicking Business! Oh, he must be doing very well, there's such a widespread need for that service these days ... :)

hanni, hi, sweetie, I'm waving, too. Some time, tell me how to make your fancy "a".

eclectic, SO. I know now, too. He's a professional ass-kicker. He has his own Ass-Kicking Business. Sam's Professional Ass-Kicking Business. Shoshie designs all the promotional material. It's a family business, and they do very well.

aw, thank you, fuzzball!

homestead, thanks! I think Dave will be very much in demand. Maybe he'll let me be his manager :)

dashababymama, that was so annoying on IE in the old site, I'm surprised anyone even came here at all, with IE. I hope you're all better. And thank you for not coming here and spreading the flu. You wouldn't believe the diseases I've picked up from the people visiting this blog. I know Jif doesn't.

lawbrat the erotica writer, um, I saw them ;)

sassyfemme, hi! yep, you're in the right place. I am one lucky girl.

WEll this is just the bestest looking blog I ever did see. LOVE the pics across the top!
