Really?!?! I''m from Scotland, well kinda. I was born here, but my parents met when my mom was at Edinburgh University. But I have a british passport and birth certificate as the saying goes, "Born with a British father, always british" Most of my family lives in BlackHall but recently several of my cousins opened a hotel in the borders.

[ChinaCat]

Born/raised in Dallas, TX.

Lived in So Cal for 10 years.

Then Austin, TX for 3 years.

Now- ugh- Houston. Sorry to any H-towners, but I really dislike it. It''s terrible. I miss the ocean. But I have to say, I don''t really miss the people in SoCal. I go back often enough to get my fill.

You''re welcome!

 

[Harleigh]

Gosh! I am just discovering the FHH threads! Where have I been all this time???

I am from Northern California in a suburb outside of Sacramento.

It seems the Bay Area girls are the closest I have found on PS besides Happy in Love!

 

[Linda W]

Geez, Harleigh, I didn''t know you lived in California!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am one hour to Sacramento

Linda

 

[Harleigh]

LOL...I saw you said NorCal, but figured maybe you were in the Bay Area, too! What a small world, neighbor!

Do you ever go to the Bay Area GTG''s since there doesn''t seem to be anyone else up our way?

 

[Linda W]

No, I haven''t been to one yet.

Hey. Let''s meet in Sacramento one Saturday and have lunch or dinner. I''ll bring my hubby and you bring your FI. We can meet at the Cheesecake Factory or the Spaghetti Factory.

Linda

 

[Harleigh]

Hi Linda,

I would personally love to meet up with you both, but I''m not sure my FI is quite ready to meet up for dinner with someone he doesn''t know. As we don''t live together yet, I don''t think he quite understands the "bling" bonds we''ve all formed on here, nor does he have any idea how much time I actually spend on PS, but I can try to feel him out about it and see what he has to say, but I''m not getting my hopes up...he can be a bit difficult that way. We might want to try to meet up first, then ease him into meeting others, I just don''t know.

And, btw, both those restaurants are YUMMY!!! I''m up for either!

(Did I mention I have a hollow leg???)

 

[Linda W]

Harleigh, that is OK with me. Actually, my hubby is the same way, but goes along with the ride with me. HA!!!

If you would prefer, we could meet up for an Iced Tea or something. Is your FI into cars or anything like that? Or what are his hobbies?

Linda

That is a-okay with me! We can meet first, then we can ease them into it! And I would love to meet you for lunch or dinner...it would be great to get to know you, and I LOVE food! (This could be why the ebay dress does NOT fit!!!)

As for my FI, he is into football and the whole fantasy football thing...any sports, actually. I am REALLY looking forward to the SuperBowl getting out of the way so maybe, just maybe, he might be able to focus some attention on wedding plans!

He''s also into the stock market and investments. He likes to do home improvement, fix/problem-solve things, but last time I saw him under the hood of a vehicle, I think a tool got thrown across the garage in frustration! Truly, he can really get along with just about anyone, but he''d need a reason for meeting them aside from just because I said so!!! As I said, we''ll work on that!

Look at your calendar and see when might be good for you...I am pretty sure I am free on Sun. the 20th and 21st anytime, the late afternoon/evening of Fri. the 25th (after work) or for lunch on Sat. the 26th. What does your schedule look like?

 

[pinkstars]

I was born in Wyoming lived there until I was maybe 3 or 4
then Charleston, South Carolina until I was 7
then Leavenworth, Kansas until I was 10
then Mountain Home, Idaho until I 14
then Lompoc, California until I was 16?(I''m starting to forget the dates!)
then Reynoldsburg, Ohio until I 17
then Alaska!!! Where I live now and have for the past 4 years?
But the BF and I will probably be moving to California next year when he goes to grad school, so a new adventure awaits us.

 

[LitigatorChick]

Calgary, Alberta, in good ol'' Canada!!!

 

[Linda W]

Harleigh,

I started a new thread for us under Hangout, so we wouldn''t hijack this one.
